Great work. The platforming feels great, the controls are super tight. The contrast between the two modes are balanced really well. Really enjoyed it. Great stuff!

Although you used pre-existing art, the platforming controls is so well done. The movement is really well refined and it feels great just to move around the level. The design of the levels were also done really well too, although my computer played it at a bit of a weird resolution the levels were fun and not boring at all. This was a really cool concept as well, though I do admit I mistook the knight's spinning animation for something like a helicopter blade which gave me the impression that I could fly with the knight haha.

The only thing I would suggest is adding some checkpoints or a few more hitpoints, as I got a little bit frustrated when I'd get hit and have to repeat the whole section all over again.

This is a really well put together game, I wish you luck for the rest of the jam!

This is super impressive, especially for just one person! Concept is really interesting, it's cool that there are tradeoffs between having the helper and not. Music is AWESOME!

This game is really good! The platforming feel really smooth, and the artwork is beautiful! I love that you need to switch between carrying the knight, and leaving him behind. I can imagine a lot challenged for secret collectables with this mechanic, if you were to work on this further. Great job!

I really liked this game! It's short but sweet, and the last level is super cool. The mechanic is quite unique. The knight-less jump is a bit floaty though.

Super cute art style, the animations feel juicy and impactful and the platforming was short but sweet. Very cool!

Fun game, the connection is thought out well and platforming isn't too frustrating.  A fun short adventure!
