I'm sorry I didn't get to your game during the rating period! I just ran out of time at the end. But I'm here, I played it anyway, and I'm glad I did! This was a really fun game! I loved the mechanic, super creative, and the lore to go with it was a nice touch. Only thing I would say is the jump is huge and the movespeed is pretty high - but all the levels are like, tight corridors? I don't think they fit very well together, especially with unforgiving spike hitboxes everywhere haha. I think the high movespeed and punchy jump arc also made the A and D platforms really hard to use effectively. I'm sure there are ways to iron those issues out, either through level design, or re-working the placement mechanic or the character movement or something. I think the idea of the vertical platforms is really cool, so I would hate to see them removed! I loved this game, the concept was really neat, the art was super well done for just such a short time, the little tutorial graffiti was perfect, and even the music fit the theming. Really nice job, I'm super impressed!

This game is really good and unique. The music and visuals are solid and overall it's really nicely polished, if a bit short.

One thing I would say, I never actually used A or D because my monkey brain kept brute-forcing the simplest approach (S platform for everything) which worked very well in this case. I do think maybe there should be a limitation, like each stage could have a set amount of each platform type available?

I actually quite liked the speed of the character (only because the responsiveness is good enough to match), though I understand where the other commenters are coming from in saying the speed is too fast. I think it's because the level design is pretty tightly packed with spikes; right now, the spikes are the main lose condition of the game, so it makes sense they would be hard to avoid... but it can be a bit frustrating.  I think if you implemented the "limited amount of each platform per level" and then redesigned the levels so that running out of platforms would be the main lose condition, then the player speed would be an asset here instead of a liability. But I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Overall, very cool game and quite polished, I'm impressed you did it in only five days!

I really enjoyed this game, and the wall-jumping is really well implemented… Spawning of platforms is very creative idea, but I think that besides that one wall-jump the majority of the game can be beaten by just spamming the platforms below the player, which is a bit underwhelming… I think that the charather isn’t too fast for the platforming, but rather it’s a bit of level design issue, like in the attached image you can clearly see that this is a safe space to stand on, but I died almost every time I tried to go there

NGL I have played around 50 games in this jam so far and this is for sure in my top 3 (maybe 2).

I absolutely love the pixel graphics, the retro chiptune 80s sound blends in so seamlessly.

I think I am in love with Eden, I have a strong attraction to brunettes. I love all her animations too, amazing job!

Difficulty is right on point I would say, not too hard not too easy.

I missed out on the last gem! But got all the others and made it to the end. I may  go back get that pesky last gem!

I would love for you to expand the game or make something similar would be down to plat for sure. Great work!

Great game! really nice art, sound effects and music fit in well, movement feels really crispy. It would be nice if you disabled the wall hanging when the player has an upwards velocity because right now I felt like it gets in the way sometimes. Good level design; it was pretty difficult since some jumps require pretty precise timing. I didn't need to use the vertical platforms for any of the levels though; would love to see a level force you to use these.
