Loved this art style and really cool ideas of having the letters guide you through!

The art and lighting is good. But the moving platforms are really hard, but overall good job.

For the first game you've made it's really nice! Couple issues for me; the text on the letters stack, the moving platforms function strangely, and it is unclear how far I need to be from the ghosts before they get me. I like how the theme is kind of implemented into the tutorial.

Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your feedback i will for sure check those platforms and add some delay before they start moving again ,and about the ghosts you shouldn't touch the lights around them

The mood in this game is great - the audio and graphics blending together for a real moody game.

Unfortunately there were a couple of issues.

The main one: the controls on moving platforms casued me to halt. When I was on a platform and I wanted to get into position, if I pressed down, I went up and fell off, and if I was too low and pressed up, it was like a double or triple speed up. Couple that with no checkpoint and after rerunning to get to the same point over and over, I called it quits.

The second issue was with the letter guide - sometimes the text would appear and never go away, causing multiple letters overwriting on each other to make the text unreadable.

I would like to play this again when the bugs are fixed :)

The atmosphere is really great! I love the graphics and music, it has a very nice vibe. I had some bugs like the character sometimes looking up no matter the direction I was moving, and some overlapping text. 

Sadly I wasn't able to finish it, I kept falling off the moving platforms while trying to move on or off them, I think they should overlap a bit more with the ground to give the player more time to get on or off them. Also, moving on those platforms seems to only consider the movement of the player which made me fall a lot.

Some checkpoints would have helped, maybe at every letter, but I had fun nevertheless. If you revisit it later, I definitely want to play more! 馃榿

thank you for your feedback ! i made the character look towards the cursor because i wanted to make dash but then i deleted the dash so i forgot to make character look toward the movement direction since i won't make it dash , and thank you i will for sure fix some bugs and add more levels !
