Demonic music, demonic read world with demonic spikes. Fun! Decent mechanics.

Small feedback:

  • A bit glitchy at times (could stick to side of a wall, and at other point was unable to jump).
  • More could be done with the “it’s all a dream” idea.

Really cool that you made everything including that demonic music!

Nice platformer. I had some problems with the collision but overall the game was fine.

This game is a decent a platformer. There are some bugs and the background color is too bright but other than that its a pretty good game. I'd appreciate if you could play and rate my game too. Thanks :)

Ye sorry the movement and collision are causing a lot of issues. Thanks for the feedback tho!

Its a great concept but there are a few problems with the collision I think you should use a DontDestroyOnLoad Script for the music and maybe add a volume slider but other than that is great

Thanks for the feedback! If I work on the project anymore I'll definitely add the DontDestroyOnLoad Script and the slider for the music and work on the collision issues because it causes a few issues.

In the opposite I think it should be sticky, because you can slowly move down and not dying :)

But the end of the level is not showing I don't know which direction I should take.

But, I reached lvl 5 or 6 when I stuck here between a coin and ground

Ye I was going to add some indications on where to go and add like a door or something for the level change but I ran out of time. If I work on the game anymore I'll definitely add that and I'll also work on the coin collection system because it obviously has some issues lol. Anyway thanks for the feedback and for playing!

The concept was really cool, but I had a lot of issues with the player movement and collision detection.

Interesting idea but it didn't fit the theme too well. Also there were some glitches with the player movement and collisions.

Ye the cutscenes broke which explained a storyline which linked it to the game when I exported the project and I'll definitely sort them issues if I work on it again. Anyway thanks for playing!

I like the concept but the movement is a bit sticky and the physics is a bit janky. If you continue to work on it though could be good potential!

I really liked the sprite set used for the bricks and the character looked great. There were quite a few issues with hitboxes / jumping and the red background didn't make me feel like I was in a dream. The level design was pretty good and I enjoyed colelctiong coins. Good job!


Me and my team also made a game about dreaming. It would be great if you checked it out!
