Ok this has to be one of the best use of the theme+limitation I've seen! Really enjoyed the game, sadly I only have a touchpad right now and I cannot get the series of light/dark steps before the green thing. I'll try again tomorrow when I actually have a mouse, but I still wanted to rate the game. I love love it! It's so clever! And the sounds effects and art are super duper cute. One of my favorite games from recent jams I've entered.
Thank you so much for playing and the review! if I update the game in the future, I'll add optional control remapping to the todo list :)
Nice concept!
It felt cool to do the jumps where you had to turn to night and turn it back again before landing. The side ways ones kind of annoyed me, like the ones above the green secret, because I would often hit the side..
Solid platformer and good work on the art too :)
yeah, the level design for sure needs some work. I was thinking about adding more moves like a dash or additional jump in the air but ran out of time.. that could have helped make those sections easier. Thanks for playing and the useful feedback!
Big fan of the concept, my first game actually had a very similar concept so i guess that’s why😅. I Really like the movement controls they are easy to learn and are executed perfectly. I think this might be the winner
thank you so much! personally I think there's much better submissions out there but I'm so glad you enjoyed it, means a lot :)
Very satisfying, somewhat difficult but fun to play game. Level design is quite interesting, and good use of the theme. I really enjoy the sounds, they make the movement and platforming so much better.
thank you so much! appreciate the review
First of all, I got all the 5 collectables and I was at the ladder which is above this part and then I just yeeted myself off the cliff xD
I went off to write the review and just got a thought that maybe theres a hidden platform at the start aswell?
AND GUESS WHERE THE 6th COLLECTABLE WAS xD
That was smart tho
The idea is simple, but the puzzles, the jumps that u came up with were amazing.
The level design was amazing!
I wish there was a instant respawn button so I didnt have to yeet myself off the cliff or get back to the platform I was trying to perform a jump from
The ladder timing jump was instantly understandable but felt like a sudden progression jump
It took all of my brain to get where I got lol (Though its a ME problem as I just suck at them, but Ill call out the second jump of the ladder where you go from left dark platform, light it up to cross it, dim it by perfect timing to cross the light wall and them light it again to actually land. THAT was hard)
The game was really fun and the sound effects and music were also very nice!
You did a great job!
Thank you so much for the detailed review and feedback, the respawn button is definitely a good idea.
And yeah.. that last part is quite the jump in difficulty.. there is a rhythm to it that you need to time perfectly (or you can just spam right click and hope for the best lol). I was trying to make getting to the end feel rewarding but I probably should have made that part easier.
Also congrats on getting all the collectibles! (even the one at the beginning hehe)
Tbh Id say to keep the ladder part, it DEFINITELY is rewarding when u actually get the rhythm.
It already have a respawn close to it and if u dont die you are exactly at the start most of the time, so you can just try again!
Just some more jumps that prepares the player for that would be better!
Fun Game! I really like the music and mechanics. This game is solid! Just, I think the platform and background art could be better, instead of solid colors.
thank you! I agree, I went with simplicity so it was easier to tweak the level layout for the sake of time - but ideally I'd swap it out with art that does some worldbuilding and looks more visually pleasing with some cool effects. looks like its time to start learning shaders finally..
Yay that was super fun. Very clever jump puzzles, some were kinda challenging with the timing, that was cool. I enjoyed jumping through it and finding secrets too. Good job!
Thank you so much! I tried to slowly ramp up the player to the more challenging puzzles but the last couple are quite hard to time correctly.. Looking back, I should have let the extra hard puzzles be for optional secret routes only that way I could accommodate all player skill levels but oh well lol
Glad you had fun, thanks for playing!
Very cute game. It gets a little confusing that some invisible platforms are walkable and some are not but other than that its very charming.
Appreciate the feedback, thanks for playing!
This was great! I like the hidden items that you can try to find.
Thanks! I don't know if it read well in the level design but the marker headstones point to the end of the game while the marker "ruins" point towards the secrets. Maybe I should have had a tutorial for that but then it wouldn't be a secret I guess haha
I was able to figure that out. It was a cool idea!
Had lots of fun with this! great sound design, and very engaging level design!
Thank you so much! I'm glad it was fun to play :)
