Moving comment from project page (from 2 hours ago):
This is an impressive first game jam game!
The art looks very nice, and the gameplay works fairly well. I had some difficulties with some movement, and the stagger not making you invulnerable resulted in getting hit doing a lot more damage from multiple hits before I could do anything about it.
I got stuck in the sawblade area, as I couldn't make one of the jumps without getting hit or missing the platform. I think I passed through the edge of the platform once, even. If the blades didn't halt my momentum it would have been a lot more forgiving.
Currently the game is very punishing for minor errors and occasionally has very narrow margins for success.
The story seems very interesting, though, and I hope to get to see more at a later date. :)
