Hey, I really appreciate the feedback! This is probably the thing I've heard the most, and while I'm happy with the room designs I do think you're right. I have to wonder if there's a nice middle ground somewhere. Perhaps a set a rooms where you progress horizontally before the big climb... A tutorial of sorts that safely introduces you to the types of jumps you have to make.
Lots to consider. As much as I wanted to call my first game done, I think I'll have to revisit this project to address this.
Cheers!
