I really love this idea to go with the theme! It's such a simple, great concept that has been executed so incredibly well, awesome work!

Developer

Thank you for playing!

This entry is so much fun!! The character controller feels great to use (although a little sensitive at times for precise movement), but the squishy animations and particle effects really help to ground the player in the world! I really enjoyed reading the text each round, especially as it got more obscured by the level :P Talking about the levels, their design is great and allows for a really great progression and difficulty scaling throughout the game. I can certainly see this concept being brought forward into a fully-developed release if that's something you wanted to pursue! The colours and sprites work great together and it's really easy to understand what to do right from the beginning. The music and sound effects are amazing, too, although a little harsh (probably me not being used to chiptune games/music), but congratulations on creating such a polished game in a short timeframe!! :D

Great job! love the character controller, and the particles and effects feel really good and refined. The game is simple fun! As other people have said, the music is a bit repetitive, but great game none the less.

Thank you for your feedback!

Very fun game! I always felt in control of the player and I love the use of the geometric shapes :P! It only needs more levels!!! Nice job!

Very fun and juicy game with excellent controls! The music did feel a little repetitive though.

Developer

The music definitely could have been better. Thanks!

Very snappy gameplay. I like the little detail that the player tilts in a direction when running. You also nailed the wall jump.

Developer

Thanks!

Overall a fairly good game, I just think the player is a bit slippery, a lot of the time I try and build up speed I end up tumbling down. but it's not the worst thing in the world and it's still fun.

Thank you! Yes, the player definitely is a bit slippery.

:D
