Really unique controls and the sound effects made just bouncing around very fun. It was pretty challenging at first until I found out I can still mode left and right and not just rely on bouncing myself off of things. I could also just hold up or down to lock myself to the ceiling or floor, which also made it a bit easier, but even given that it was a good challenge. Nice job!

The movement system in this game is pretty unique and and challenging. It's the kind of challenging that's fun to try over and over again. I wish there were more levels that explored the different aspects of movement. The parallax star effect was really nice. Also, the ascending pitch of the bounce sound was a nice touch. Overall well done!
Nice idea.
Maybe you shouldn't let the player change direction but let the happen when he bounce into stuff.
This was a really neat game! I laughed at the ending
The background looks really nice, I like how it moves.
I feel like as a player, I could get into a really good flow state if I spent enough time on the game. Getting the rhythm for just the right amount of bounce to move through the obstacles. I feel like you might even want to remove the option to move backwards in order to encourage the player to figure out how to find that rhythm.
Also, just wanted to note that I was able to slide along the bottom wall and bypass the obstacles in order to each the end of the game.
First a Question... Are there any secrets? :D Turns out, Death does not come to all of us :P
All in all great. The sounds are nice. The Controlls are good!
Simple but entertaining. Good job!
Really interesting concept, loved the sound effects as well.
