I accidentally fell and skipped a big chunk of the map I think. That said, this game rules so hard
cinema
Genuine fun to play, had a great time with it. With some polish on the movement, this could be a serious banger. Great work!
did you already have the double jump? if not just slide jump to the area on the right
I like the style and music, I enjoy the movement, the slide could do with some tweaking, seems to just speed in the direction moved previous to the input, it held like a sprint. And I got stuck on that lava level, died until i just spawned past the jump and unlocked the double jump. Theres potential here
wait how did you get stuck there? you are supposed to slide jump then dash there? did you mean the wallrun section before it? but that seems simple enough, or is there another place? anyways thanks for the feedback!
Fun parkour game with an unsettling/etherreal atmosphere. My only criticism is the dialog box block user input which can break the flow of the game a bit at times.
Visually very beautiful and quite fun
Really cool game! the gameplay was honestly quite good, exploring was pretty fun. Fun game, good job!
