Call me a noob, but I couldn't get past the first section. I kept getting into a situation where there are two missiles coming at me at the same time in mid-air, making very hard to deflect both.

The art style and music are very cool, though!

Developer

You not always need to deflect them immediately. Try to dodge missles and make return to you from the similar side. Thanks for feedback.

I like the the sort of Death dream sound track. good art and aesthetic.  good job.

Soundtracks and sound effects are the only things that I didn't make, these are open license assets. All credits are on the game page.

Ah, well nice choice of music then.

Love the pixel shading and the overall aesthetic. the initial keyboard control graphics were confusing but still nice once I figured out what I was looking at, thought it was a platform at first lol

Pretty great ! A bit too "pixel perfect" for some jump but I like it

The artstyle is really nice, I really like the cool shader effects. You could use some more sound effects, for feedback when you jump, die, float, etc. The platforming feels too precise and difficult, otherwise it feels very relaxing to play.

Developer

Thanks for feedback! Will be working on it.
