Fun concept! I think the butler's climbing animation is really funny haha. I did also have some trouble with wall jumping like the previous commenter said, but overall a really charming game!

Good music choices. Fun sprites. The platforming could be a bit smoother with the character getting stuck at the top of the climbable walls. The mechanics did lead to some interesting scenarios like super jumping if you jump at the same time that you dash, or something that I wasn't able to replicate where I dashed while wall jumping and it shot me super high into the air. You could also climb on the falling platforms, not sure if that was intentional. I think the levels were pretty fun too.

I noticed a few of those bugs as well, but unfortunately there wasn’t enough time left to fix them xD
The climbing on falling platforms is actually intentional :D
Thanks a lot for your feedback! :)

I couldn't get very far because I stink at platformers but I love the concept of playing as a butler just bringing his employer some cookies haha Good music choice!

Eyyy I saw this was your first project in unity and I gotta say, you did pretty well!

Though Id like to point out some stuff that id like to see if you update this :)
- Coyote time (Obv :))
- The butler does feel a bit slippery (so maybe make him less)
- wall climbing controls feel a bit iffy (like using shift to hold, maybe E to hold on to the wall?) 
- Also when u reach the top of the wall, u cant just climb it, which also feels a bit iffy

Id other than needing some small tweaks and polish, you succeeded pretty well in making a platformer!

Allso, I gotta give it to you, I love the character animations, sprites, the environment textures and also the dogs! 
They all look real good!
Though the dogs do sometimes clip around and teleport alot which looks a bit weird (Nothing a bit more polishing cant fix tho)

GGs on finishing it! :D

Thanks a lot for your feedback, I really appreciate it! :)
You’re absolutely right, I was just glad I managed to post a playable game at all, since I had underestimated the time and was really under pressure. :D

I'm terrible at this kind of game, but I had a lot of fun. The butler theme is original and the tutorial texts are hilarious. Good job ;-)

Thank you so much for pointing out it's my first time making a project with unity, now the download and webplayer should be fixed! :)
