My god this game is pretty. Love that the level was different each time. A bit laggy on my M1 mac tho.

Developer

Thank you!

Yeah we're big fans of roguelikes and randomly generated levels.

Fair enough I had some lag issues in the browser as well, got a bit carried away with adding lights in Godot haha.

Bit hard to understand at first but when I got it it turned into a very fun game!

Good mechanic of switching run layers

It really has the potential to be a fun game, but the gameplay really is the weakest link. A better player controller would make a big difference. Also, am I the only one who experienced lag?

Developer

Thanks, we wanted to add some purchasable upgrades but didn't have enough time - might have added another element of gameplay to enhance the platforming. 

I also experienced some lag fullscreen on the web browser version, downloading the game should help.

Developer

Agreed with player controller! Need to do some research on fine tuning player movement in a platformer type game. Some people experience lag with browser version ye, seems to depend on platform etc, not sure what the cause is.
