I can see this creating some very satisfying tricks. The fact that you are a square messes with the jump physics quite a bit, but once you get used to it, the movement is quite fun.
Had a lot of fun playing this. For a game jam, its really nice.
The movement of the cube is actually quite fun, except it seems to be a bit inconsistent when you are allowed to do a wall jump or double jump. In contrary, the ball and chain doesn't really seem to work well. The level (levels?) could have clearer goals, as I was multiple times lost, and transitioning can be made smoother then a teleport.
Over all, there seems to be a lot potential, and I hope that you have learned a lot for the next time :)
I'm not entirely sure why you were able to wall jump although it is possible double jump seemed like a wall jump? As with many other things we noticed it was sometimes hard to figure out where to go and we did plan to build a system to help with that but sadly we ran out of time. Thank you for playing!
