SO GOOD!! The controls are so tight and fluid, and you are clearly a fantastic pixel artist and level designer. The game is super tough (I myself haven't completed it, but it definitely brings to mind old NES and SNES games!). Absolutely fantastic game, one if the best in the jam!

If you had the time to check out and rate my entry as well, that'd be very appreciated!

Making your own platforms to traverse the environment is a really cool and fun idea, with the knife and the seeds! My only real issue is that the timed sections are a bit too lenient sometimes and a bit too brutal in others, a variable timer would've been appreciated. Stellar work here regardless :>

I gave on what I think was the last level, but I loved the lighting, sound effects, mechanics, puzzles, and levels. The last one was a bit too hard for me, but I guess that was the purpose: overcoming difficult challenges, and the only way to do that is to just get started. I love this!

That was fun! The last level almost made me tap out, but I got into the brazier room!

Only critique is the blurry text. Great game!

WOW, the sword mechanic was NEAT. great job, i really enjoyed the game so far!

This is a really really great game! Is this pico-8? It's really quite well done. I love the way you introduce new mechanics and they all feel very nice to use together. The sword and the vine were quite unique, and I especially liked that the sword had multiple uses (and none of them were combat hehe). Only thing I would mention is that if you're in the air you can drop multiple seeds and grow a whole bunch of vines at once, but that's not really an issue because the rooms were so well designed around the abilities you have. I'm very impressed with the pacing. And the art was nice as well. Beautiful game, super fun, I'd love to see more.

Really nice game! The mechanics were really interesting, I had a lot of fun! Good job!

Very interesting mechanics. Apart from the obvious bugs, I think the game also has great visuals and vibes.

I really like the sound effects, but somehow I wish you also added music. I think a fitting theme would elevate this project.

This was really fun! I like the mechanics a lot, especially using the sword to make your own platform. I felt really challenged in the last room where I had to make use of all the mechanics the previous rooms taught me. Great job!

Really fun, solid collection of levels and mechanics!

I like the combination of sliding momentum and climbing

I ran into a small bug, but thankfully it was only visual:

The "bubble" effect for the sword throw doesn't despawn, so if you throw it enough time the screen becomes covered in bubbles and obscure the actual platforms a lil if you spam it like me lol

This game doesnt receive the love it deserves! Really had fun, played almost all of it (rage quit at that level when I had to go up two floors in 20 seconds - probably would go back if it had a save function) but can tell you that the game is REALLY REALLY GOOD. The retro graphics, the mechanics are all lovely. Good job! One of my favourites :)

This game is really cool! I really liked the idea of the sword not being a weapon. I ended up unable to finish this game, because the furthher I progressed, the more i lagged, which really sucked because I wanted to see how it ended. The movement felt a little slippery, but I think that was intentional. I also got a jump with coyote time that was a little after the point where I would have expected coyote time to have ended, but there's no time to fine tune that for a jam. There were a lot of jumps where I ALMOST made it up the ledge, but didn't, and had to wait for a ledge grab. This didn't feel great, but my game was running REALLY slowly so this took like two seconds, it probably would have been less annoying without the lag I was experiencing. Amazing work this this game, I wish I could have finished it!

Loved a lot! The mechanics are so good, I love the fact that you can throw the sword not just to grab it but to activate stuff as well, it was a nice touch. The art and the music are pretty cool as well. I fell too many times at the beginning but couldnt stop playing it for the world. Great job!

I loved the ending, kind of would have liked to do a NG+ >_<

Getting the different abilities thought the climb was great and the lighting was very cool, but I cannot express with words how good is the ledge grab >_> the particles combined with that meaty SFX, idk I really feel like the game could use some more ledges just to be able to grab them! Then again the sword is kind of a pocket ledge so maybe I'm just being silly lol

The physics were annoying at first, almost lost it at the first jump where you can fall all the way down and have to repeat a couple of screens, but endured mainly because of the ledge grab SFX and ended up finishing the game.  At that point I got used to the physics and ended up kind of liking them, so I guess I don't know where am I going with this...?

My only real issue were the blurry letters, the camera man really needs some glasses

Overall great game, amazing presentation and fun gameplay, good job!

it was really fun. I loved how you could grab onto the edges of platforms

The ledge grabbing is an interesting mechanic. The controls are a struggle, I felt I was fighting them as much as I was trying to overcome the level. But the design is solid and I could see losing hours to this game.

I don't know why but the ledge crabbing sound just feels so satisfying! Great game I had so much fun, and enjoyed the different mechanics put to together. Really good job!

Nice game! The light system and art style look really well! But the movement feels a bit odd because the character's movements feel a bit too heavy; maybe increasing character acceleration might make the game more fun to play!

Great game, I love the different upgrades like the sword and in general the grab mechanic, they are so fun to play with .
