Once you get the hang of the controls you are a rolling spinning machine!  It has a Sonic the hedgehog feel to it when you hit walls at speed.  You  also do fun bouncy wall jumps. Great work!

Thank you for playing!

Really  creative movements mechanics! Some nit-picky things: I feel like the first hint needed to come before that first big jump because I had already figured out holding down the space bar by the time I saw that hint. Also the parallax background seems to be going the opposite direction of what I would expect? I was really tripping me out at first. Very cool game concept. Nice work!

Developer

Thank you very much for the feedback. I greatly appreciate constructive criticism. The idea behind the parallax background is that since the world loops, the background is supposed to project what you see across the loop. I just didn't have enough time to refine it. Thank you very much for playing!

Movement feels really nice! Feels like something that could grow into a really fun speed running game. I like the small puzzle aspect too!

Have you tried going back to where you first started? You should be able to solve it with your new skills.
