The flipping of the sprite, you gotta fix that, felt as if I was glitching a bit, which I guess you may have done on purpose with all the animations, also, a decent amount of bugs. Time kept going after going to menu and coming back, I didn't seem to lose lives at some point, I got stuck on a wall. But to sprinkle in some positivity I liked the UI and pixel consistency.

Reviewed! Don't let any of the "negative" feedback I give discourage you. I only give real time opinions of what I think of the game, and I hope my video shows a reasonable explanation of my thought process.

Thank you for the "reviewing" ! don't worry about your feedback, on the contrary, we think it's very important to have some in order to improve the game ! We are planning to fix bugs collisions, masks mechanics and maybe add some new map after the jam ! Question: how do you pick the games you review ?

I use the karma filter, and just go down the list from there!

I liked the game :) Also the graphics are nice for the Pico-8, I liked the background gradient and the glitchy effect of the lava and the ghosts. The mechanic is nice, maybe if you go back to polish the game you could add a power to the third mask

The idea is nice, I found some glitch when the player change directions.

Also sometime the player got stuck in places like in the picture below.

A certain point i got stock and I couldn't move

I think you have to polish it a little bit, I like that when you died you restart from a previous place and not from the start of the level.

If you solve these couple of issue will be a great platformer. Good job.

Cool retro style. I really miss those days. At some point I got stuck in a bug and couldn't move or reset. Music and effects continued playing.

I love pixel art so I really liked your art as well. The idea with the different masks is cool too. More masks with more powers would really be interesting to see!

It seems like there is a problem with the flipping of the character sprite.
