- Hello, your Leap of Faith game has a very good aesthetic but quite slow, I was quickly lost without the indications on the page. It need a menu, and necessarily a more precise goal in your game.

I really like the looks of it. But game-play wise is disappoints. The camera is really close to the player therefore you blindly jump somewhere not knowing if a platform is gonna be there or not.
that's the idea--hence "leap of faith" =)
well. Totaly missed that :D
no worries friend! =)
It's not a bad game, but it certainly lacks more details in the story to accompany us a little more.
Aesthetically speaking your game is not bad so keep going!
Respect Of the Theme - falling... alien? Well the main mechanic is falling anyway!
Originality - Very I have no idea what to even compare it to!
Fun to play - I though the menu was the game at first since I could control the character. I did just happen upon hitting enter and the real game started. I get the camera being close is what makes it a leap of faith. That said I didn't like. The falling was super slow. I was just kinda guessing on where to move. There didn't seem to be a goal beyond getting a higher score. Not bad, but not for me.
Effort - A lot effort went into the visual I think. Very interesting. TV aesthetic was unique. pretty basic platforming but that can take a while to develop depending on the engine, this one I had not heard before! All in all well done on having a complete project by the deadline.
Beauty - I don't know how I feel about this game looks wise. its interesting in its affects. The music is strangely off-putting, but maybe in a good way? The gfx otherwise are pretty basic. I truly don't know whether this is really good or not, but it is strange and unique!
It took me awhile to figure out how to open the game. After downloading it and extracting the files, things were very all over the place. Would have liked some usage of folders for the items. Could not even find the exe in all the mess so I have to pass on this game. I had no clue how to start this game. Sorry. Even after finding the file to play it in a browser after the help of asking someone, I could not get it to launch.
It isn't the worst game, but I can't say it's great. Remember, practice makes you better.
Also, it's cool that you actually finished the game in 2 days. It's really cool for a beginner.
I had trouble understanding on the menu or I hadn't pressed enter. the theme is present but I will have slightly moved the camera back because I often had the impression of falling next to the platforms.
Upload it as a web game, no as a downloadible
