Loved the game! The mechanics and art were great. I'm smol brain when it comes to playing games, so I had to cheat and read other people's comments to move forward, and yay I got to the previous levels. I never got past the red room scene though. great job!

I really liked this game!  I particularly liked the graphics and think your response to the theme was very creative and really fun!  I like the player sprite and its jump and death animations, they were well animated and satisfying to watch.  I also think your puzzles were really good - I especially liked the last one.  I had been wondering what in the world I was supposed to do for a while, and then when I figured it out it felt like a big brain moment.  The ending to the game was also really neat, though I'm a bit confused as to what was going on.  The only thing I think it lacked was sound, it was just so quiet, and it would have been nice if the pixel sizes were a bit more consistent.  Other than that though I thought this was a really good game.  Well done!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I tried to add sound but I ran out of time.

Agh, yeah I get that.  I've had the same thing happen before.

I got stuck on level -1 for quite a bit. Just a shame the shift arrow looks like an up arrow. But overall im really impressed with how much atmosphere you were able to cram in through art and mechanics. great job!

Developer

thanks!

At the beginning i didn't understand at all what the purpose of the game should be. I always walked through the door until i realized what i really have to do.. what a plot twist.

The viusals are awesome and the animations are on point. Nice job.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! my bro made the animations.

Very nice visuals!

I can't believe I haven't seen this interpretation before! If the dying to a boss sends you back to the previous level, of course dying in that level sends you back to the level before! Good work.

Obviously improvements would be to add sound

One of the most beautiful games ive seen! Awesome visuals, and the core mechanics of the game were rly smooth! I loved the overall gameplay and hope u make more! Even without the music, the game really is something to admire! Great work! Keep it up! 

ps: I left a rly awesome rating!!

Submitted

Some music would've been nice

Developer

Sorry, I ran out of time

Submitted

Amazing look and atmosphere, and buttery smooth platforming!

I just wish there was sound to enhance the amazing atmosphere:)

Btw, I got stuck at level 3 or -1 I guess, that jump seems impossible to make :(

If you have the chance, please consider playing and rating my game :)

click shift or right click to dash while in the air push the block down and use the spike to die
