Generally speaking a great idea, glad I've found it! Bit clunky movement, but still enjoyable and more importantly: readable! Nice one!:)

Maybe you can improve on the resolution of the itch page as it was a bit hard to navigate on the page itself.

Thank you for your feedback and for giving our game a try!
The scaling issue was giving us a lot of trouble, but hopefully it doesn't stop people from enjoying the game.

Interesting, got little dizzy at first with the textblock background but got used to that after a while. I however got stuck on when you got speed and was gonna drop a 'ball' to do double jump or somehow. Fell inbetween the 2 pilars and could not get up.

Thanks for playing! We tried to make the background as pleasant as possible without losing the intended style. I believe you have found a possible softlock and a bug that we missed.

Great game, though I was struggling in some parts

Developer

Thanks for playing! Some levels were designed to be challenging, and I agree that several of them turned out to be not very intuitive.
