This game was super amazing! The fact that it was completed in 10 days is unreal. Amazing 8 bit art and graphic designs with great music and clean audio. The gameplay was smooth and I like the feel of the movement. The boss mechanics were an interesting concept but I feel as though the Squid is a bit unfair. The genre of Foddian style games are very difficult and frustrating yes but when playing the big 3 (Jump King, Pogostuck, and GOI) you always feel as though your lack of progress is because of your lack of skill and understanding of the mechanics. I feel like the first and last bosses are fair and great design (apart from a visual glitch where the hitbox of the frog tongue persisted past the visual i saw on my screen) however the squid boss has too many disadvantages for the player and I felt like despite fully understanding the mechanics and level design, I was left feeling helpless and that I had to either wait for cycles (which is generally not good for Foddian games especially ones that are speedran) or i had to W key my way thru the bullets and hope for good RNG of the first bullets the squid fired. Other than a few design flaws and unfairness though I genuinely think this will be one of the top submissions in the competition so good job. You made an amazing game and I think I might be a little harsh but thats my honest take from a man who plays Foddian games all the time.

The squid was a challenge to design overall, fitting a bullet hell type boss into a foddian like game was hard, I want to rework the mechanics of the squid to be speedrun friendly and won't force you to wait for cycles! thank you for the amazing comment I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

Foddian it is! Hard to master! What a great Indie game. This is so polished and you wouldn't believe it was made in the time frame. Well done Dev! Superb work... love this game, favourite so far!

I can't really say anything that hasn't been said by the people who've already commented. Adding bosses to the platforming challenges is such a big brain move. Super impressive.

Bosses make it so you constantly have to be on the move, which makes the platforming very intense.

The art design highlights clearly where you can jump, which is key in such an action pact game.

Spawning the bosses at the middle-ish of the sections gives the player time to familiarise with the powerups before the boss battles begin.

Very good game design.
