Definitely the most innovative platformer I've played so far and I've played more than 150 of the jam games. Though, it was quite difficult to precisely control the cube. The music was alright, but the audio balancing isn't great; I can barely hear sfx over the music.
The pausemenu also looks out of context and doesn't work properly. The crt effect was nice, but it was a bit painful to read the text. I also made a game with a crt effect; it's pretty nice as well. Perhaps you can also add saving player progress and a level select menu. Lastly, I couldn't beat the level pictured below.
Hey, thanks for the critism , it helps me go forward even if, in fact, I knew most of these issues. Time got me one these ones, if you intersted I'm still going to work on the game and publish a bigger better version some day. And for the level, you do have 100% in air control so the trick was to go left while the player was falling, not too soon, not too late so you could avoid the peaks. (Well yeah it's wasn't that obvious and the difficulty curve might be a bit too steep ^^')

Wow thanks a lot ! And hehe yep I'm going to polish the game, create a real story, more levels (hmmm, maybe not 300 ^^') and I'm planning on making a soundtrack for every chapter as I love making music. That said, once again thanks, it means a lot ! (Actualy I'm working on it right now)

First of all, thanks a lot ! And about the theme, I've explained a bit in the description on the game page but I searched for a less direct way of aplying the theme, like at first the game lies to you by showing you a "false" level then when you become white and the "real" level is revealed. And about that hurting eyes thing, yes I know, I didn't had this "issue" myself. But lots of people told me that, sorta kinda werid.

Hey I've played your game before you commented and yes the idea has some similarities, the only thing i would say for your game is that it's a bit short but the idea itself was really nice and the level were nicely engineered. And thank you sooo much for the comment and rating, it means a lot for me. Good luck you too !
Hey I know about the bug… It's really frustrating and if you go on the game page I gave a link to a google drive for a corrected version if you want to play the rest of the game. And for the weird movement, I've made it on purpose so it's a bit harder but yeah It's not really perfect. Anyway, thank you for playing, thank you for rating and good for the jam !
Sweeeeeeeeeet
EDIT - Just tried it out. Works wonderfully. This game is awesome! Really reminds me of the game The Sun and Moon by Daniel Linssen - one of my favorite creators on itch! Your game is so polished and looks amazing with the chromatic aberration and vignette effect. The movement and controls feel very well tuned - like finely tuned. The flipping of the level space is a really nice touch. This is one of my new favorite games on this whole site! Excellent work. You're the third person to get a perfect rating from me on this site! A+

Wow thank you sooooo much, it's my first game jam ever and I just… wow. It's also the first time I "published" a game, it really means a lot for me. Thank you !
