  • Pretty Slick character movement overall Fun to play no accessibility/screen/resolution options Incomplete ctrlr support - can't shoot, shame as it plays much nicer with sticks
  • Nice concept - very Mirrors edge Flows well when it works, although occasionally it will pick the wrong action than what was intended - e.g. starting to climb the wall rather than run along it. Perhaps consider enforcing the action on different obstacle types so that's the only thing you can do on the obstacle. Like the colour coding of some elements - consider expanding to all obstacles - so they have a specific visual style that denotes how you're supposed to traverse it. Tutorial was well laid out. You've left a dev option in to reset the level by pressing the 'r' key on the keyboard... :p Soundtrack was well selected and audio well balanced. Excellent that your presentation included a short gameplay video, in addition to the pictures and description. Like the level design and concept - a little more refinement and some more levels and you've got a good "just one more go" game on your hands! :)
  • An impressive amount of movement features implemented and running around the level is fantastic fun. Nice variation with things like the red blocks, the grappling hook, etc, and very satisfying for the player when you get something just right. Good work!
  • Concept is cool and has a nice implementation. I did find maybe the fonts / colours used for the tutorial text just a bit hard to read. So it actually took longer to learn the controls than intended. But I did like the guns being the same colour as the bricks you shoot. Very intuitive there
