This is a very enjoyable game with very enjoyable graphics. I was confused at first about the feature where you get power ups if you die a certain way (at first I thought it was a bug, lol), but it tied the whole game up in a neat way that perfectly encapsulated the theme of the jam. The claw shot level was fun, but it was quite frustrating having to continuously restart the level because I grabbed the hook from the wrong angle. Maybe Nera could jump up at a 45 degree angle after each hook? Most of the frustrations I had with the game, however, stemmed from the fact that I am very profoundly stupid. I did accidently soft-lock myself on level 2, so the ol' "Press R to Restart" feature might be helpful. When the game is fully finished, I think it would be a really good puzzle game!

Thank you very much for your feedback! I appreciate you taking your time to write this out. I do want to mention there is a restart level option inside of the pause menu, but turns out on the web version , the escape key minimizes the game, and then you have to press the escape key while minimized to make the menu pop-up. Oops!
