How does the game fit the theme?
The player is cute and is in a dangerous environment.

Note, the below is not about how my game fits the theme.
I was unable to upload my game due to an electrical storm where I live, and now that the storm has passed it is unfortunately voting period (I can't upload). If you would still like to check out the game, visit the itch.io link in the top comment.

Such a fun platformer, can see you put so much effort into it. Sorry to hear about the storm. I also couldn’t find the exit though even after a few tries. The tight camera angle is a bit of a double edged sword, it creates a tense feeling but sometimes can lead to what feels like an unfair death. But overall really great job! Oh and I also like the level decorations and background effects

Very satisfying juice! I think the bat sfx was a bit too loud, but otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed this!

Thank you for the feedback, and I am glad that you enjoyed it. The bat sfx being loud is a glitch, I don't know why it happens.

Sorry I don’t find the end of the level.

But it’s a well-made platformer.

It’s just a little unfair because of the camera’s range ^^’

I tried at least 10 times to get there X)

But in 3 days, it’s perfect!

I don’t like storms…

I appreciate your feedback. I'm glad that it annoyed you enough for you to keep trying XD. There is definitely an ending and a way to beat it, the first time i play tested it took me over 20 times to get there on a no hit run. It's not meant to be easy though (hence the small camera range), it's kinda only beatable if you've try going one way and died. There's no information about this in the game, but you can jump on enemies to kill them and then jump off them for a brief time. So you can hop between bats to progress through the level. I have an interesting relationship with the weather lately. Hope you enjoyed.

 sincerely, SovietKitty

I think it’s a bug because from the start I tried jumping on the enemies (even the bats) but I don’t bounce :/

I keep falling…

Oh… .gif don’t work…

interesting ... must be a glitch because it has worked fine for me. ill check it out today and check it does. Just to clarify, in order to jump off the bats (after landing on them) you will have to press the jump button.

Developer(+1)

I have just checked and yes it does still work, so it must of been a glitch.

Ooowwwww…

It’s my fault!

I wasn’t jumping again when I landed on it!

It’s okay, I’ve finished the game ^^

(Perhaps you could explain this mechanic on the game’s page ;) unless you’d prefer it to remain a mystery to be solved ^^)

Im happy you got it now :)
I was thinking maybe I should have a quick tutorial at the beginning (or just an explanation on the itch page), but then I was like "Well, it's a small game that once you get isn't very difficult, so lets atleast keep the player interested for more than a minute.". Annoyance > content.
