I like where you were trying to go with this and I tried to give this game a fair shot but I gave up halfway through the game.
Pros:
- Dashing is fun
- Bouncing off enemies by downwards attacking is fun
- Nice visuals
Cons:
- The tutorial at the beginning disappears too quickly.
- In my opinion your most used actions should not be shared by the same finger (run right and attack with D and F respectively).
- The delay between the input and the actual attack is way too long.
- The light and heavy attack feel equally heavy.
- Falling to your death when you spawn is something I'd expect from a troll platformer game, or an intentionally bad one.
- Sometimes when I run into bats they stick onto me like a tick but stay outside of my attack area so I'm guaranteed to die. This was especially apparent when two of them were hiding in a tree, which is ridiculous.
- Attacking downwards to bounce off an enemy seems to work arbitrarily and at most two times in a row. The section where you had to bounce off several red enemies on spike platforms looked like it would be fun but turned out to be the section where I quit out of frustration. I would've had to compensate by properly using my double jump and dash to land on a small platform at the end which was too much of a difficulty spike for me.
Sorry for being so negative. I'm not writing this to be mean but because I think this could be a genuinely fun game if you work on it more.
Nonetheless, congrats on your first game jam submission!
