Nice and hard game, some levels had me stoping after a death and breathing for a couple seconds haha, I really like the idea of the tower shifting.

Great work!!

Cool game. The tower shifting idea was a cool use of the theme and interesting level design!

Thank you for playing!

Fun game. After the tower shifted, couldn't get past the first jump with the two spikes on each side. Maybe there was a mechanic I was missing?

That section is just a difficult jump. That being said, thanks for playing!

i like your level design, movement gameplay perfectly with it, but visuals so so )

Finally got dev time :D, I really enjoyed the gameplay. Also theres a visual bug when you reset during the death animation that bugs out your sprite.

Really cool! The game controls very nice and looks good. Quite challenging at times, took me a while but managed to beat it!

Glad you liked it!

Really charming and fun platformer. I really liked the audio of the guy when he was angry. Plus the pixel graphics and character worked well for this game! Cool, thanks for making it.

Glad you liked it! The angry noise was fun to make.

The sounds on the troll guy were super silly. I found it crazy hard as well, but maybe I'm just bad. I found it super tough with how fast the character dropped and how precise the spikes got towards the end. Great presentation and very well done levels!

Second Hand Slayer

Thanks for the feedback on fall speed. It was meant to be pretty difficult, some of the levels toward the end I struggled to beat as well.

Jugan0Submitted1 year ago(+1)

Tough games definitely have an appeal, but my thought process is that you want game jam games to be very accessible so everyone can experience all the work you put into your game. Again that's just my opinion, some people love rage games, but that would be my major piece of feedback. I try to always make things easy to beat so people can see all my design very quickly. The levels in your game were super well executed and I wish I could see them all!!

stormrunDeveloper1 year ago

Yeah that makes a on of sense. Next game jam I do I think I'll keep that in mind. Maybe some sort of difficulty setting would be good so that people can chose the experience they want, though might be pretty hard in the scope of a jam. Thank for the advice!

I'm personally a big sucker for pixel game art styles. So a big fan of the art style, I found the movement system very unique and cool. And for example when the level ends and the difficulty increases, I found that very cool. Great game, enjoyed it.
