Great art and cool concept. I think the wall jump may be a bit broken though, I managed to spam it a lot and start flying.

Top marks for art, I loved the art and animations especially how you run haha. I like how you need to freeze time to progress further. It was quite challenging and I found myself freezing/unfreezing time when I intended on jumping. Well done on your submission

Freddy The FridgeThank you for introducing the controls in the game itself. Not being faced with a wall of text before entering a game is good. Really enjoyable freeze mechanic. I did find some of the background art to be a little too colorful, which made it blend in with the foreground elements, so I had some uncertainty about which were solid objects that I could run into. Having some of the ghost tutorial guy demonstrate a move was great. Great checkpoint placement. I love the word walljumpable. Punishing. 🙂 I love the sense of scale, too. Well done.

The FreezeningThe artwork stands out with this game, and the character movement is smooth and reliable. Only suggestion is I'd re-think the controls, as W is commonly associated with 'jump' in platformers, so muscle memory sometimes kicks in and leads to mistakes. Overall great work!

Lolly CropsThis is such a well polished game, I am amazed! Feels like you thought of everything, checkpoints, ghost figures to help progressing forward. Great!

Speech FreezeAdorable game, the artwork especially! The little character and his animation are so cute! I really like the game, but I wasn't able to finish it. I tried my best, but whatever kind of checkpoint system you had going on there drove me nuts. There were quite a few times when I would fall a great distance and not die. Then, whenever I tried to get back up, it would reset my checkpoint quite a ways back and I would essentially lose all my progress. This happened quite a few times before I decided to call it quits. :/

Till The Night PassesFun game! Super polished and well designed. I think the only thing for me is its easy to accidently press W while I was using left click to stop time. Other than that, awesome game!

The letterSuper polished for jam game! I'd pay a few dollars to play it. add a timer mechanic to the time stop to make it more thrilling. i found some of the platforming a little janky as well; had to wait for the clocks to align which i felt robbed me of my agency.
