Woah!! The learning curve got my cursor scared!! Well made

Really cool game! I like the concept! Well done!

I never imagined that being a cursor could be so difficult.

the last level is a good reason to play this

complaint: some of the level texts sometimes have no relation to the level like falling down platforms and other times teach a mechanic like the dash

the level cut scenes that utilize the level text are a nice touch

The game was certainly hard, but what hurts it most is not being clear with your goal. At least I was sweating like hell in what I was sure was just the tutorial - whoops. I also tried pressing down in the second level a lot of times :p

Other than that, as a hard platformer the levels are quite good. I’d like to see the being a cursor thing being exploited!

Extremely hard, reminds me of Path of Pain from Hollow Knight. The gameplay is fun though, and I really like the part where you mouse over the continue button. 

People also found our game very difficult so I sympathize- nice work!

Good idea, not a fan of the execution. It was way too difficult and I didn't really enjoy it.

I really liked the idea behind the game and I liked the visuals a lot but I got stuck on getting the controls to really work for timing the jumps.  I'm less experienced as a side scroller player so take that for what its worth.
