Love it, thought the story was gold. The art's also pretty amazing in those scenes too, would have loved to see character sprites instead of boxes for the levels though.
I thought overall gameplay was good but some areas of improvement for consideration:
- I thought level 5 was much easier compared to level 4
- Level 4 taught me that there is a death zone if we fall but this fall risk doesn't appear prominently in the later levels so it didn't feel too much like a teaching moment to me.
- Kangaroo in the final stage felt more like an obstacle than boss. Would have loved if the final stage tested your platforming skills by having you dodge/jump/etc. around the Kangaroo instead.
- Scoring mechanic worked well but I didn't feel incentivised to collect the extra white dots, maybe if the white dots unlocked a certain level/cosmetic it'd be pretty neat. Or if the dots served as bullets you can use against the Kangaroo to speed up the level.
Overall, I really enjoyed it! Great game!!
