Thanks for playing and your comment!
I understand your point on 20 seconds as a default time, but the game is all designed to reach every "checkpoint" in a little less than 15 seconds, if the time was 20 seconds maybe someone who is really good at this kind of games could skip some parts because that little time difference, and that would feel bad for that player, it's hard to set a time that fits every player, I tried setting different times and I think 15 is the best because it feels doable but also hard and demanding.
Thanks for appreciating the tutorials on the game environment, I don't really like to use some kind of UI to explain the controls, I love when other games do the same, it feels so immersive, and as this game's background is practically a solid color is like the perfect scenario to do it.
Yeah, I wanted to add some more visual effects that would make the game look better, but as you said there was only 96 hours and I rathered to spend the time on make the game feel better than look better, would have love to implement some dash or jump effect or particles when walking or sliding on a wall :(.
Thank you again for playing and the feedback!

Thanks for playing! I think the music fits very well for what I wanted, could have been better tho.
Oh god, I knew someone would notice at some point. I knew that could happen but I just said "Nah, I dont' think someone will jump and dash at the end, right?" HAHAHA. Honestly, I don't know why I didn't fixed it, I mean, I only had to make the trigger a bit larger, it takes no time to do, so I can't explain myself why I left it in that way knowing that dodging it could happen, maybe I'm just dumb? idk hahaha. I'm sorry for that. Nice time for a first run tho!

Thanks for playing! I wanted the players to remember some early parts even when they are almost at the end of the game, earning new skills and remembering that wall that you couldn't climb in the past but now you can is so satisfying hahaha

First of all, thanks for playing and leaving your opinion!
Yeah, more visual effects like some jump or dash effects, some particles as well and better sound effects would have been nice, but I spent almost all the time with the movement, the level design and the basic sprites, so I couldn't afford to do more juicy things, but yeah, that would definitely make the game better.
And I agree that it's unforgiving, but I made it on purpose, I think that's the fun of the game, having to play almost perfect and trying not to make any mistake, like if you were a speedrunner; that's why I implemented the time cheat as you said, knowing that the game is pretty hard and to give the chance for "non-tryhard" players to complete the game without having to hone their skills.
About the manual reset, as I said, you can't afford to make almost any mistake, so if you know you won't reach your objective you can use it to avoid wasting time, I think having to wait until the automatic reset knowing that you have nothing to do is annoying and frustrating. For me, admitting my defeat just encourages me more and makes me want to get better and do it better the next time, concentrate more (I'm not saying that you're wrong and I'm right, just giving my vision).
Anyway, even if we don't completely agree on our visions thank you so much for the feedback and for giving your opinion and vision, is always nice to know someone else's opinion that doesn't think as you.

Thanks for playing! I haven't played Minit yet but someone else said this game is like a mix between Minit and other game, so maybe I should play it? Glad you liked it :D

Thanks for playing and the comment! :D

I don't want to disappoint you and pls don't hate me, but I haven't played Outer Wilds yet :(, some day I'll do for sure. PLZ don't downvote my game now that you know this!
Thanks for playing anyway hahaha!

Oooh, so it's the best game you've ever played, right? Thank you so much!
Nah jk, thanks for playing and your comment HAHAHA!

Thanks for playing! Glad you liked the game! :D

Thanks for playing! "If you use your time correctly you can go anywhere" *motivational phrase* HAHAHA!

Thanks for playing!
If I'm able I'll try to take a look later! :)

Thanks for playing! I'm currently playing Hollow Knight and wanted to try to make some little metroidvania.
I've had to rebuild several times some paths to make them so tight hahaha!
Happy you enjoyed the game! And really nice time for a first run!! :D

Thanks for playing! It's my first platformer game and I'm very proud of the level design tbh, obviously it's not perfect but I think it feels well to play on.
The end was immovable since the moment I had the idea of the game and the little story it has hahaha!

Thank you for playing! Yeah, it's challenging but reaching a "checkpoint" when only reamains 1 second feels so good hahaha!
Thanks for the feedback! Maybe I should have put the text on a more visible zone but I liked the way it looked.
Nice time for a first run! :D

Thanks for playing! Yeah, everything is very well measured to reach every "checkpoint" in a little less than 15 seconds, so if you fail on some jump or something you won't reach it. The game forces you to become a speedrunner hahaha!

Aww, thank you so much for playing and your kind words :), means a lot to me! I'm glad you enjoyed the game that much so you completed the game!
Good job and thank you again!! :D
