A pretty nice platformer but the movement didn't feel too good. I sometimes got stuck on walls and had to wait until I reached the ground to free myself. with a bit of polish it could become a very fun game.

Wow, a good amount of content for a game jam. I found myself dying quite a bit because of the thick outlines around red blocks, where elsewhere you can stand on black lines just fine - it made the levels a bit harder to read. A very nice uplifting story too!

Paint PaintYeah, sorry, that was a bit unclear - I meant that because black lines elsewhere were safe, it was difficult for me to parse the red blocks as dangerous since they were surrounded by "safe" black lines. It was more a visual thing than anything mechanical. On reflection though, I did get used to it about halfway into the game, so I guess it's not such a big issue.
Thanks for making it!
I thought the platforming was really difficult at times, and the player's mobility was really janky. Sometimes I would be able to move almost immediately, where other times I had to slowly build up speed. I think this might've been happening most while trying to move in the air or while standing by a ledge, which made it way harder to precisely move.
Other than that, I thought it was pretty good and interesting to play. Nice job ^^

ScribberangThank you, yeah the air movement works differently than the groudn movement. This was because i used an old script i made for another game i never finished. I might change this to have more tight controls, that way it is easier to make tricky jumps like in level 3, 6 and 9.
But either way, thanks you for playing and thanks again for the feedback.
pretty cool! i think i had the hardest time with the very 1st jump with the red blocks. was there a double jump too or am i just mistaking that for the wall jump

paintjam 2020 gameYeah i do too, but i doubted anyone would have the patience to learn the janky mechanics and finish all the levels. Im saying this knowing how much it took me to finish level 6 and ho wi still havent completed your game xd.
Perhaps im just bad at videogames lmao.
That thing you saw at the end, it was my attempt to do some voice acting, and also to introduce the main mechanic of the game. But since i ran out of time, its just a jpeg for now.
This game is pretty hard lmao. But it's still fun and interesting to play so overall great job!
