How does the game fit into the theme?
In Shadow Runner, you must keep moving forward to survive! Hostile entities constantly spawn, each dealing different amounts of damage, and one even has the ability to blind you, limiting your vision to a small radius for 15 seconds. With every challenge, the only way to succeed is to push ahead, adapt, and endure.

Cool artstyle!! I also really like the level design its satisfying when you have to make the perfect decision for each jump.  It would be really cool to see your time at the end or each level, so that it encourages more speedrunning, because right now you go straight to the next level and have to go back to level select for your time. Overall reallly cool game though!

I really like the artstyle on this one. It looks really comfy and combined with the music sets a great contrast to the difficulty of the game.

The game itself was simple but fun. I do think though that when new mechanics are being introduce through the text on the screen, the text doesn't go away and it does obstruct the view of the level which can make it quite difficult. But in general the game is solid.

Relaxing and fun with a nice theme as well! It was a little strange that everything was so zoomed out though.

Camera seemed a bit too far zoomed out to me, but it's actually pretty fun to try to get the fastest time possible

It's a simple and fun game, the return of darkness was not something I expected and it makes you have to plan your path beforehand. 
The last levels were a bit complicated for me, but I can make it to the end haha

Great job! :D

nice parkour game feels like old web games back in the day but Aaaa sounds overlaping in the last level.

Good attempt, i liked the assets you chose and the level design.

For improvement, everything seems so small,  could have made the view  port bigger.  Also movement felt off, theres a great YT vid by GMTK who talked about good platformer movement.

Cute platformer with some good art but felt like it kind of just ignored the theme with just being your basic platformer and not much of anything else on top of that.

Thanks, I think maybe you should try Level 7 as I put good stuff and effects in later levels, which thinking now in jams you don't want your game to be longer but a game that shows every things directly to the users.

This is my first game jam, I know that level placement hasn't been good in the game, but I will improve in the next jam.
