Very hard game, but quite fun. I liked how fast-paced the music was, it really made me want to go fast. Nice job.

Very enjoyable 11/10 game! :D I loved the little detail you put in with the exit sign getting more bloody the more you die! Congrats :)

Developer

Thank you! I really wondered if anyone would notice it :D

An enjoyable experience. 8/10

Great concept and use of colors. The colors were a little bright but the idea was good. I didn't realize that the shadows mimicked your movement until the last level. The last level was so annoying to finish, I probably spent half my time on completing it.

Not sure if you've made the leaderboard work but this was what it looked like.

Developer

Oh no! it did not work for you :o Tested it multiple times to be sure, a small popup asking for a name should have popped … sorry first time trying to setup a leaderboard

I think the real problem of the last level is the jump speed of the shadows, you need to have almost perfect timing :/

Thanks for playing and making it until the end <3

Developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback leaderboards are now fixed (tested on 3 different environments for safety) <3

This game is great even if the visuals are not the best. After some polishing, it would be 10/10.

The music absolutely slaps! I'm a big noob at games like these so couldn't really go that far lol.

 I really liked how the shadows followed your exact movement but they have a slight delay to it so it really feels difficult. I still wish they were a little slower tho! 

Btw good job in the simple level design. I could see how the first initial levels were made so that the player could get a hang of the game. It is a small thing and usually no one bothers to do it in jam games. so good job on that one!

Developer

Thank you so much! Level design is all or nothing for me, I get easy introduction levels and then very hard ones, need to work on difficulty curve :D

Yeah that was pretty good, fits the theme well and limitation, like how you eventually use the shadows to solve puzzles. music fit the game well, art is a okay, simple but like the animations on the player and shadows, but the background color its very saturated, it hurts to look at. Good job.

Developer

Thank you! Did you get stuck at this last level? I don’t see any new name on the leaderboard

Submitted

Yeah, I failed there...
