I've played a few of these types of games so far, and one thing I will give you props on is the short iteration cycles between deaths. One critique is that sometimes when you die your box moves over one space more than when you were hit. caused me to get stuck at one point since I couldn't hit the reset switch.

Great job on implementing the theme.  Very solid fun game.

Developer

Thank you. :)

For some reason my screen scaling is off or something and the game looks blurry to me (unlike the screenshots), but I played through it, and yeah, the beginning and death/corpses as a mechanic are very similar to my game. :P

Otherwise I appreciate all the differences, it's clear you paid attention to the level design. There was no place where I could get stuck behind a tombstone or not be able to reset in case I messed up, and I like what you've done with the bridges and that you made use of the player deaths much more than I did. Well done! :)

Developer

Thanks. And the blurriness shouldn't happen. What browser are you using? And what OS are you on?

Submitted

Windows 10, Firefox.

Just gave it a try in Chrome and it works well there. Might be a problem with my browser. :)

Maybe. I'll try it out in Firefox whenever I got the time. Thanks for the feedback.

Even if the platforming itself is a bit rough, the puzzles are really satisfying to solve. Great job!

I like the death + platform mechanic, smart way to implement the theme :) Good job!

Developer

Thank you :D
