really neat concept! I liked the platforming too but I felt like the character was a little too slippery? Idk I think it just moves too fast for me to keep up with at times. Great work overall tho! :)

Having conveyor belts is a really cool idea for the foddian genre, and even if it was a bit confusing, I had fun and liked the gameplay. Good job!

At first it is difficult to understand the management, there is not enough training and hints what blocks do, and so I liked the game despite its shortcomings.

Agreed, I really should have put up some text descriptions for things like angles of dashes and how to do walljumps. I intend to fully update the game to remedy this at some point. Thanks a ton for playing and the feedback!

Gotta love a good play on words, and gotta love a good game to go along with it! I feel like after playing these foddian games I am going to ascend as a gamer. It might be because I have old man reflexes, but Mazerbeams really tested my mettle.

This game is really well designed, felt good making my way through it. Would be awesomne if you could slap some nice artwork to go along - would make this all come together nicely. 

Well done! C:

This game has the best level design given the mechanics layed out for the player that i've seen so far. Great pacing on the difficulty all it needs is some optimization and graphical polish and the game becomes a masterpiece. I made it to loser jail Sadge. Core gameplay Pog!

Cool game! I got stuck in the area in your last screenshot, though. Any tips? haha

Thanks for trying it out! If you mean an area with blue walls on both sides, you have to time jump inputs while holding in to blue walls to walljump. This does a dash up and goes through lasers without using your airdash resource. You can take it pretty slow with how you slowly slide by holding into walls, or go quick and try to jump a bunch ASAP.
