The game looks pretty good! The intro Was already a great thing and the mechanics of the rat was cool! Anyways the sounds were great.
Fun game! At first, I thought there was a way to avoid the birds, but then I gave up and just kept going haha. Good entry!
Nice cute art style, and great game mechanics. Loved this entry. :)
Cool game! Having the light level tied to the raptor appearing was a pretty cool mechanic since you basically have to scout out the level and then run in the darkness. I feel like the first few hard levels weren't as strong because they lacked that light. I do appreciate the brightness setting that lets you see in the dark and I probably wouldn't have completed hard mode without it.
I enjoyed a lot this game! I must congratulate you for that really well designed rhythm on level design and on mechanics presentation. Also, the animation of the playable character at the beginning of the game is a really neat detail! Thank you for the fun (I finished it twice)!
I really liked the artstyle and the gameplay here. I wish it was longer, but the time limitations make that pretty difficult. Great job!
A pretty fun little platformer! I really enjoyed it and the game does a really good job of giving the feeling of anxiety. I got to hard mode, but sadly I gave up quickly because it felt more like something you have to repeat over and over to understand the level, so it felt like a different game than the normal mode. But overall a really nice game, good work!
sweet little platformer
