A very worthwhile first try. Nice details with variation. I would have liked to be able to alter my speed in the jump, even just a little bit, for landing precision. I cannot calculate beforehand where I land based on my speed.

Congratulation on your first game! I'll reiterate a bit what was said in some previous comments, but the movement feels too smooth and the air control is not strong enough for precision jumps. It's very challenging to say the least. The visuals are simple but very cool. Well done! I'd love to see a post-jam version.

I like the simple graphics and the contrast between the two gravities. It's hard to control and I wish there was a checkpoint right after the tutorial. The particles on the enemy deaths were excellent. Good choice of mechanics.

Your character feel very fast and slides if you want them to stop and your jump feels slow and cumbersome - try and bring the two to the same level - together with your concept that would be great

Interesting game so far!  It seems a little bit too fast for the movement, and slow for the attacks, but good otherwise.  Good job!

Nice game! I like the aesthetics although the fireballs take very long to throw. I like the impact when hitting enemies but some sound and camera shake could make it even more impactful. Still, the game was fun, good job :)

The character is moving a little fast, but I like character style and the way the character is sliding on that flag when it dies, good work D. would try out my game and rate it according.

Very well paced tutorial which nicely integrates into the level.
However, the difficulty ramps up HARD right after the tutorial (I wasn't able to make the double jump between the lava pits).
I would recommend to make the tutorial skippable because now it takes a long time to get to the fun part of the level.

The visuals are simple but awesome. Very well put together game !

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, you weren't meant to get past the double jump really because the game is unfinished lol!
