So tough ahah.

Alot of care has been put into this^^.
You could like make better controls and game would be alot more easier to wander into in my opinion.

Good work with the polishing also^^(music/SFX/etc.)

Sadly wasn't able to finish the whole thing but cool stuff man!

Developer

Thank you so much ! I really appreciate it :)

This is so haaaard :'D 

I see a lot of other people have mentionned the controls, and yeah they're super rigid and unusual, but as someone else said it gives a kind of unique feel to the game \o/ The downside for me is that it means that it's a bit long to reach the place you just died (but maybe I died more than the average!). I would love an easy mode with pretty close checkpoints :p

Anyway, congrats for your very first game, it's super cool!

Developer

I really wanted to add checkpoints but Singleton screwed me over :(( But thank you so much for taking the time ! I really appreciate it :)

The music for this game is really nice and upbeat, I just wished it looped that way when I was trying to get past that first bush I wouldn't hear the first 10 seconds of the song over and over, other than that though the aesthetic for the game is really nice and it was quite enjoyable :) nice job.

Developer

Thank you so much Gale !! I really appreciate it :) Cheers

I didn't get very far. I think this game need a little bit of play testing. because it had a very steep learning curve. If you have a friend or something that can play it for you while you watch will show you things like how that little bush can be.
It's a shame because the music is nice the artwork on this page is very beautiful.
It looks like a very cute game.

Developer

Thank you for taking the time !! You're absolutely right I will definitely put more time into more play testing. Cheers !

The controls need some work or needs more heart or checkpoints, but that's about it. Other than that it plays great. I really liked the music!

Developer

Thank you for taking the time ! It's really appreciated. Will work on that :)

The hard controls make this game more addictive honestly!

I have died so many times, but I keep wanting to play it. If I die at the sage part I ll just restart the game in order to have my 7 hearts for the next level. Gives me the flappyBird/unfair Mario vibe. Love the fact that there are different soundtracks. Honestly, keep the controls as they are and I know you mentioned you will add checkpoints. Character customization for the Ghoul ? :))

loved it

Controls are killing me ;0 *literally..
Sounds also were too loud for me, but I liked how the music changes with the level. Honestly couldn't make it far.. The checkpoint system would have been nice..

Anyway, it is a good job!

Developer(+1)

THANK YOU ! for taking the time to play :) I initially wanted to add the checkpoint system (and I did)  but idk why they would bug once the scene changed. I will definitely look for a way to fix it. Cheers ! <3

Cute game but I couldn't make it very far because the controls were hard to get used to. Sometimes I pressed space to jump but nothing happened. Also, it seems like you can't jump and move side to side at the same time so I had to time my movement carefully after jumping which led to many deaths lol

Hey thanks for taking the time ! I will definitely aim to simplify it way more. I didnt have enough time to play test but hey we all learn :) Cheers !
