Love it!! Very snappy movement! Think about making one level and instantiate coins in random positions so the player will need to collect till the time is up. It can make this game arcady and endless :)  

Developer

Good idea! I will try that :)

Nice Game ! Loved the sound fx.

Developer

Haha, thanks!

Interesting idea and theme interpretation. I love how differently you begin to look at the levels with each ability

Developer

Thank you for the nice comment :)

Submitted(+1)

I really like the concept of having difficulty options tied to which ability you choose at the start

Developer

Thanks!

Loved it! Simple and fun! Finished it with dash :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks :D

Submitted(+1)

I finished the game with double jump and wall jump but it took me a while to be able to complete level 3 with dash I didn't realise we can spam dash :D Fun and good game and I loved the sounds.

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I should have made it more clear that you can dash multiple times. Glad you enjoyed it!

Really solid platformer! I think the physics were a bit too slippery for my liking, but that's just a personal preference. But I'm really impressed with the level design and how you made sure all of them were clearable in different ways using the different abilities! Good job!!

Developer

Thank you!

That's a very smart game, great idea even tho I couldn't quite figure out how to do some levels with wall jumps (maybe I'm jsut bad)
Visuals and sounds are simple but that really adds to the charm and mood
I love the mouth made sfx

Developer

There is also a bug with the wall jump ability, so that might be why, but glad you liked it :)

The sound effects and music were great! it took me a while to figure out there is no cooldown on dashes though, maybe add a note in the description of the ability that there is no cooldown. Good job!

Developer

Yeah, I could have made that more clear, I'll write it in the description and change it after the rating period is over. Thanks for the feedback!

I like the limited mechanics, the graphics, and the sound style. 10/10

Developer

Thank you, it means a lot :)

Just a new banger from Capsicreme :)

I love the idea of changing mechanic to modify the difficulty. Good job, it's sharp and fun !

Developer(+2)

Awesome, glad you liked it!

really fun simple game! wish it had an end screen cause I beat hard mode! its super unique how each difficulty is a different jump option! and the dash is easily the most fun, going through the air and timing it to not go into the spikes! I hope you expand on this! cause it's so super cool and with more levels and some new level themes, it'd be a game id be happy to pay on steam or something! be proud! you did amazing! great work <3

Developer(+2)

Wow, thanks a lot for the kind words! It would be cool to make a full game out of it, so I might just do that :) Thanks for your comment <3

Fun little game. good stuff bro.

Developer(+1)

Thanks!

Very nice game. Ended up doing all three difficulties. Good job on implementing coyote and buffer jumping. For feedback, I would say maybe slightly reduce the width of the spikes' hitboxes, since sometimes I went into it when trying to jump over with a wall jump. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback, I can see what you mean with the spikes. I'll keep that in mind for future games.

the level design is fantastic, i did medium and hard. i like how different parts of each level are useful for each ability. the sound effects are so funny and cute. i also like the hollow knight-esque dash animation. this was sooo fun! i'd love to see more levels :) i'd like to see the dash have an input mapped to a mouse click, that would feel more intuitive for me personally.

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for your comment, very kind and thank you for the feedback too :)

Cute game and really nice music! Just one thing:

Should've called it "Adventures of Gorm" ;)

Developer(+2)

Haha its Gorm in disguise :)

What a great game! It’s super impressive that you made levels that can work all three ways.

Just two things keep this from being an obvious #1 pick in my book: Poor contast between hero and background (and also the spikes), and no gamepad support. Both pretty light lifts, and if you got those, man, this would be best in show, easy.

Would be really cool to see this in a longer format!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for the constructive feedback, I will keep that in mind! Also glad to hear you liked it :D
