This game is really great however the thing that hold's it back is that you can't jump in the ceiling because of that this game loses so much versatility and maneuverability that it could have had otherwise had if you could jump on the ceiling I know that it probably was done because the levels would otherwise be a breeze but it is kinda frustrating perhaps a ceiling jump could have been included but to counter the jump some traps could be put on the ceiling that could make you want to go back to the ground

Neat mechanic! Although I normally associate this game's fly mechanic with gravity change, but it was still fun regardless! I also really enjoyed the pixel art.

My Cup of TeaLove that the flying plays in an interesting way of walking on the ceiling. I was even "flying" through the middle by pressing the button repeatedly with the right timing. This is fun. Really difficult!

Shot In The DarkFun game! It is challenging but not too challenging!
I may have found some bugs where you can jump on the enemies so that they can't kill you.
Sometimes I couldn't see where the enemies were or which surface I could walk on, but other than that the game was fun and good looking.

It's Always The ButlerI liked it. It took me a minute to figure out I needed to run on the ceiling. I like how you constructed the enemies and levels to make it challenging but not too hard.

Coupled Clichés - Jam EntryFun little game! Visual feedback on life loss would be great! Nice work!

Elephant in the RoomNice interpretation of the theme. The levels were a little bit cluttered, in that I couldn't easily distinguish what I could walk on, and I found I was getting stuck on things in the levels. Not sure if it was intended or not, but I found that tapping "S" to keep swapping between flying and falling was more useful than jumping!

Knight In Shining ArmourFun game! I like the interpretation of the cliché, I think the player character is really cute and the ceiling walk was a fun touch (it reminded me of Spider Pig from The Simpsons so I was humming that while playing lol)
I think it would be interesting to remove the wings or stop the animation while walking and trigger it when jumping or flying to the ceiling, that way it adds more of a fun surprise for the player. I loved all the detail in the levels but it was a little hard to distinguish what surfaces I could walk on. Overall nicely done!

FishyFishyCool theme implementation! There's also a certain level of skill involved in using S to avoid the enemies on the ceiling and on the floor. I liked it!

🌿 Bet the Farm 🌿Good game! Amazing choice of cliche and gameplay was hard, and frustrating, but still fun. I did find the character very slow.

When Pigs FlyIt could be a nice platformer, however I found having to restart from the beginning at every death quite frustrating, especially because I died a lot. Well done nonetheless, besides that point it's a promising entry and you've done a good job
