The visuals are fantastic. Reminds me of mirror's edge and other parkour-type games. My mouse kept escaping the game onto my second monitor, and it made it much harder to play, but I had a good time with this one overall. Good stuff.

Really good 3D platformer! But I think the controls could be a little less sensitive.
Oh, and the graphics are really cool too.
Fun game and really great job on the graphics! I love the beacons and the glow they give. I would suggest removing the sliding, as this made it very difficult to get across the level, and make the moving platforms come back to their original position as I kept having to restart because the platforms wouldn't come back. Finally, I would suggest removing the mouse from the screen and centering the look motion as my mouse kept reaching the edge and I'd have to pause it to recenter the mouse. All in all though, well done! :)
This is some great feedback! Thank you, I agree with you especially on the sliding/stubborn platforms which have had me frustrated a couple of times when testing my level. I think with time I'll be able to flesh out the controls some more. Also, I was unaware the pointer was still visible! I'll give it another look.
I got to the first beacon, but I quit because I kept slipping a lot. (The amount of slipping that occurs feels like I was in an ice level). Is there a hotkey for resetting? Because that would've alleviated some of the frustration.
Otherwise, the graphics were acceptable, for a 3D jam project. And the layout of the level seemed promising.
