Sorry that you are having trouble launching the game. We tested the game on our mac and it worked fine, so we assumed there was no problem. What was the error message you got?

This is all it says. I'm on OS Catalina 10.15.7.

I liked the art for this game -- especially the main character sprite. It was a fun platformer, but as others have noted, the controls could have been tighter. I had a very difficult time figuring out how to do wall jumps consistently. I liked how I kept getting new abilities though. And the fireball effect looked great!

Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it. That is a very nice suggestion and we would definitely look into that!

Its a great idea for a game and I'm a big fan of the artwork. The simplicity of the theme really stands out for me and i like the tile map you have used. The explosion effect is great and gives the character a sense of real power!

However, I find the controls a touch unresponsive. Personally, I like nice crisp controls that make me feel in total control of the character and there were moments that I felt like she wasn't responding enough. I think you could maybe decrease the deceleration time for movement so she comes to a stop sooner as there were a couple of moments where i fell off ledges into spikes due to momentum.

Post Jam this could be expanded into a nice little story! Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your constructive feedback! We did do quite a bit of research about how other platformers like Celeste fine tuned their movements, and It is really something we would like to dive into if we have more time.
