Pretty fun once you get the hang of it! Great work on the art and sound

I really liked the jump height mechanic which made it less punishing for when you have to start over. Unfortunately for me, I fell to the bottom after the jump height was reset haha

I'm with Ian on this one. Not knowing when you're going to jump is nothing but infuriating. Also, I couldn't seem to get past 45 height due to my jump height as well.

This game could be really fun but as of now it is kinda just ok. I'd like to start with the good things this game did. The art is pretty, the platforming (at times, I'll get into that later) can be fun, and the level design is (mostly) forgiving with the making a mechanic out of my control, something many similar games messed up on.

Now for the critiques. (Note that some of these are nitpicks, because I am reviewing it here as a purchasable game, something it could be with a little fine tuning)

  1. THERE NEEDS TO BE AN INDICATOR WHEN SOMETHING (like a jump) IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. This just so happens to be the downfall of just about every other game I've reviewed. This game it is slightly alleviated once jump height is added, so it doesn't completely break the game.
  2. There is a soft lock in the first level after you collect the lose bonus jump height thing. Soft locks are bad.
  3. The credits are SOOOOOOOOOO freaking SLOW. When I clicked it, your names moved the screen at such a snails pace, I was stuck there for an extra 5 minutes after I read them.

Overall, this game has a lot of potential, just with a few additions. I really enjoyed my time with this game, and it just needs to telegraph the jump. Thank you for your effort in making this and good job!

Thank you for the awesome feedback, we are definitely going to address those things if we keep working at the game!
