Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback and the video — really appreciate it! 🙏
I'm currently in a bit of a work rush, but I’ll try to give your game some proper feedback soon too.

Your suggestions are super relevant: I totally agree that the two worlds should interact more meaningfully, and the idea of slowing time a bit during switches is great for readability. I also like the idea of tying hidden items to bonus content — definitely something I’ll explore!

Thanks again!

Thank you so much! 😊
I'm really glad you enjoyed the art and music — and yes, you're not the first to mention the difficulty 😅 I'm working on finding the right balance, but hearing that you're coming back to play again means a lot. Thanks for the kind words and support! 💙

Thanks so much for your feedback — I really appreciate you taking the time to explain what worked for you and what felt frustrating. That balance between challenge and fairness is tricky to get right, and your thoughts are super helpful for me as I refine the level design.

Also, I love your suggestion about being able to look ahead. That could really help with the flow and allow players to plan better, especially in tighter sections. Definitely something I’ll experiment with.

And I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed the music and world-switch mechanic! That Prince of Persia wall-jump vibe is a huge inspiration, so it's awesome you picked up on that :)

Thanks again for your kind words and thoughtful input — it means a lot!

Wow, thank you so much for this incredibly detailed and thoughtful feedback. I can tell you spent a lot of time testing and analyzing every aspect of the game—from the UI to the core mechanics—and I truly appreciate it.

Your comments are super clear, constructive, and exactly the kind of insight I need to push the game further. Some of the points you raised (like the audio balancing, readability issues, or some of the jump quirks) confirm things I already had in mind, while others opened my eyes to areas I hadn’t even considered—like the character glow blending or how the dimension switch visuals play out.

It also means a lot that you felt the retro vibe I was going for in the art direction and soundtrack. And no worries at all about the difficulty—I take it as a huge compliment that you stuck with it and made it through the level!

I’ll definitely be going over your suggestions in detail, especially around smoothing out the tutorial, improving player feedback, and polishing some of the UI and level flow. Your feedback is a goldmine and will seriously help shape the next steps of the game.

Huge thanks again! 🙏

Hi , I'm from the Get & Give Feedback game jam ,
Great game! I really loved it. Keep adding more variety of blocks, like you did with the spinner—it makes the gameplay even more engaging!

Hi,i from the Give & Get Feedback Game Jam,

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the game—it’s very well done!
I think adding some power-ups (like speed boosts, triple projectiles, or shorter cooldown times) could make it even more interesting, especially as rewards for defeating the strongest enemy in a wave. Overall, great job on the game!

Thanks for the feedback! I’m really happy you enjoyed the style and had fun with the game!

I’ll definitely take a look at making the movement tighter and adjusting the roll to feel more responsive. I also love the idea of adding medals for speedruns—it’s a great suggestion to add replay value.

Thanks again for playing and sharing your thoughts!

Thank you so much for playing and for this detailed feedback!

I’m really glad you enjoyed the core concept and the flow of the switch mechanics—it’s awesome to hear the jump-and-swap parts were your favorites!

Your points about the level design being too open, the roll mechanic feeling underused, and the control scheme being awkward are very helpful. I’ll definitely look into making the levels more guided with landmarks, experimenting with alternate keybindings.

Thanks again for the encouragement! I’ll keep working on this and pushing it forward.

Thank you so much for playing through the tutorial and all 3 levels! I really appreciate the detailed feedback and the time you took to share your thoughts.

I’m glad you enjoyed the concept, visuals, and level design—especially the pacing and the mechanics.

Your suggestions are super valuable. Customizable controls and a level select menu are definitely on my radar, and I agree they’d improve the experience a lot. I’ll also look into fixing the checkpoint oversight .

Thanks again for the honest review and the 7.5/10! I’m excited to keep improving the game and hope you’ll check out future updates. 

Thank you for playing and for your kind words! I’m glad you found the game fun and challenging. Keyboard controls can be tricky, and I’m exploring ways to improve them for a smoother experience. As for the mid-air switch issue, I’ll investigate that—it’s helpful to know it might happen when falling without jumping first. Your feedback is really appreciated and will help make the game even better!

Thank you for trying the game and sharing your thoughts! I'm glad you enjoyed the music and found the tutorial helpful.

Key re-binding is a great suggestion, and I’ll definitely consider it for future updates to improve accessibility.
Thanks again for playing and helping me improve the game!

Thank you for the detailed feedback! I’ll make the tutorial clearer about jump mechanics.

Glad you liked the checkpoints and the music—your idea about an evil AI taunting the player is fantastic, and I might just work it in! Thanks again for playing!

Thanks for the feedback!
You're right—I usually play with the arrow keys myself, but I'll work on making the keyboard controls more intuitive.
Glad to hear the controller feels good—it’s definitely the best way to play!
As for the lag, I think it’s due to the web version, as I haven’t noticed it much elsewhere.
Thanks again for your input!
