Wow, art style and the dash mechanic are both amazing. i would play a full metroidvania style game with this art and dash mechanic. very well done. easily my favorite game so far in this jam.

Submitted

Your game's art is stunning and I don't think I need to say that. The idea behind the game is really cool, but when I played it I felt it didn't reach it's fullest potential.  Don't think that I didn't enjoy your game or it isn't really good, I just wanted to mention the only problem I had in you game so you can get better at gamedev.

Anyways, Your game is good, the art is amazing and I would really enjoy more complex levels.

Cheers :)

Hello jsigvard! I enjoyed playing Moonlight. I did a quick playthrough of all 5 levels. I appreciate the thought that went into the dashing and overheating mechanics and I think speedrunners would have a good time putting them to use. However, I think the potential of these mechanics was not fully realized. I felt that sometimes there wasn't enough moonlight to require a lot of strategy on avoiding overheat (but probably just me because I tended to go in the dark areas anyway). Meanwhile, since I am a very poor gamer, I found it really tricky to control WASD with my left fingers, space with left thumb, and click to dash with right hand. It felt a little bit unnatural. But overall the controls were really nice and tight. Also, I appreciate that you are giving speedrunners a little more freedom to optimize and choose their paths here, but I kind of got lost wandering around the levels. I felt like I wasn't actually finding a route, but just running to the right until I saw the finish. The aesthetics and sound were very chill and relaxing. I enjoyed them a lot.

very nice

The game looks great and the sound design fits in well. The gameplay is fun although the dash is a bit hard to use sometimes. The music was really good.

Gameplay is simple, and levels are not challenging, but i do see the potential in how it could be speedran,since there are many pathways one can take which shortens the time a lot. graphics and the shading is brilliant, and the sound effects are very fitting. The game felt very polished. Great job!
