Judge feedback

  • Oversized hit boxes were my nemesis in this game! I lost like possibly 100 times before I made even a tiny bit of progress. Lovely squirrel though.
  • Playtest feedback for developer if you choose to iterate: The hit boxes here could probably be a touch smaller as well- it feels unfair to get hit when you are only standing NEXT to a platform, rather than ON it. This is a challenging game that requires many tries to get through and precise use of the arrow keys. Improved hitboxes will help the difficulty scaling feel better.
