Nicely designed game with fun animations. I'm not great with platformers, but I enjoyed this one!

Really cool game! The pencil and eraser effects and how the player rotates when walking on slopes really add a lot.

If I had to rate 4 stars somewhere, it would be on the graphics, because sometimes it's had to distinguish the walls from the rest of the game, it could be darker of filled with lines. But I liked the game so much that I put 5 stars everywhere!

I like the in-game self-critical comments and then game improvements as you play. I got up to the moving platforms :-)

Really cool interpretation of the theme. I love the simplistic artstyle. and the game is just difficult enough to be fun but not too difficult.

The end said that you're happy with the game, and you have every right to be. Super fun and creative platformer. Everything feels intuitive, the difficulty ramps nicely, and the art and animation oozes charm and appeal. Nice work!

That was pretty cool. The background with all the different colour sheets of paper made it a bit hard to see what was going on sometimes.

Very nice graphics and animations. I smiled at every death, great game !
