It is a cool idea with abilities scaling with time. This platformer is hard and it takes a long time to get used to the changing abilities, but a lot of people like hard platformers. A graphical presentation of the scaling would have been nice, not only numbers.

Good job! I found your game enjoyable but a little bit on the challenging side.
The movement feels a little bit slippery. It's a good platformer and has good level design, Good job!
Neat! I agree with the other ones on the movement, it feels kinda slippery. But besides that I really love the concept of the player stats scaling over time! Nice job!
The movement could feel a little more responsive, the slow acceleration makes it feel a little slippery. Having said that, scaling the abilities of the player as time goes on is a really clever idea! I would love to see how this idea can be explored further. Really cool take on the theme. Good work!
Gotta say, I really love this platformer. It feels so nice and the scaling abilities mechanic adds some really neat puzzles and obstacles. Great job!
there were a lot of cool mechanics in this but i am unfortunately very bad at platformers, so i wasn't able to see a lot of them. what i saw was really well made though. well done!
This is real fun! I'm going to save this one and come back for sure. The abilities scaling is a nice effect, but it definitely makes me question if I'm going too fast - or too slow on some level spots.
I see that the player's abilities "scale" as the time goes on. This is a very unique idea. I only found the gravity a bit weird. Next time while you are making platformers like these, try to make the player fall faster as it is reaching to the ground.
Wow, I totally suck at this game! :D And I say that as a good thing, well done making the game challenging yet rewarding. I know if I played it for a bit longer I would have gotten the hang of the controls much better than I currently do. I liked the way you interpreted the theme, abilities scaling with time is a fun twist! Well done for your first entry!
Neat twist.
I had some trouble with the slipperiness of the character, but I guess that's consistent with this genre of games.
Fun game ! Really innovating twist for the speedrunners out there. Great interpretation of the theme !
Neat game, the controls feel a bit like meatboy with how fast and slippery the player is. The difficulty also feels like meatboy (its pretty hard). It was a fun challenge and i like the visuals, they make me think of a flash game I'd play on my mom's office computer, If this was on Coolmath games in 2013, I would have put hours into beating it. Addictive, challenging, and fun. Great game!
Nice idea and a really really hard game. Made it to only level 4 so far.
Nice mechanic, love how you scale the ability as the time passes. Challenging but also give me anxiety lol.
