i had a lot of fun playing this! the art is cool and the music is quite nice as well! this might be a bit nitpicky but for a few moments upon first starting a round it doesnt let me jump, though this didnt detract from my enjoyment. you guys did a great job!

Developer

Thank you so much!!  I'll make sure to allow Jumps to skip the opening cutscene in the post-jam release, thanks for letting me know!

The artwork is really cute!  The game itself is very fun, I think the only thing I have to complain about is that I occasionally would do a skid jump by accident when trying to pivot, and that there weren't terribly many room layouts, which is understandable given that it's a game jam project.  Great job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Thanks for your feedback as well! In the post-jam version we're working on there are currently 16 room variations rather than 4, and we're aiming for 20! And skid jumps have been given tighter input requirements. Thanks a ton for your input!

I got a new highscore but forgot to record

and itch.io won't let me post images anymore

Developer

Lol no worries!! Pumped to see a run of yours if you get to record one! You have no clue how happy it makes us knowing you've been enjoying the game as much as you have!

I've recorded a bunch of runs but the first minute is lagged out so I just need to edit the footage and then I'll post em

edit:its only messed up on my video viewer and not in my editor but I'm still gonna edit it to the best run

Its very fun and controls well, I never felt like I had to fight them, when something bad happened it was my fault always

Navigating the area is fun, the backswitch is very rewarding

The generation is repetitive which is my only gameplay problem

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! I'm glad to hear the controls are fun. The generation is definitely something that we want to improve in the future, we just couldn't implement it in time.

its good terrain, I like jumping in the different spot to go up
