As other people mention it does tend to lag on the later levels, but overall I’d say it was a pretty polished experience!

tsym for playing and getting so far! (optimization is definitely an issue that I'll need to fix for a post jam update at some point)

First of all, the feature of levels fading away behind you in this infinite box is really creative, huge props.

Loving the little details like particles on jump and the BLESSING/CURSE swapping in the text! 

The blessing and curse system is a really cool like randomised way of increasing the difficulty curve and offering progression - it did feel like it got slightly harder over time and didnt feel unfair at all.

Really enjoyed this! The effects like spikes falling and stuff are really cool, and i could see more of this with harder levels and more variety, more enemies, etc

Only critique i have is maybe would have like some more music or for the loop to be a bit longer - and once or twice i got a lag spike.

Nice one, was good fun :)

I love how all the rooms are shown in the background (even if they are a little unoptimized) and the art matches that nicely too!

Cool little game! I love the arts and the style!

Keep grind!

Its really addictive, but keeping the past rooms rendered lags the game out a bunch. SO FUN though

Very enjoyable. Only complaint is that the further I went the laggier it got. It became basically unplayable after level 75, but that might just be me.

A ton of replayability and an interesting concept. The curses and blessings were a good addition. I enjoyed playing this game!

I like the art style, gameplay, and the score at the end however I feel like it could have a better soundtrack and altered wall jump

Thanks for playing! yeah i have major difficulty getting audio for my games, especially music, i also wasnt quite satisfied with my games music

This is a very clever take on a platformer. I do enjoy how the previous levels fade backwards. I think the only feedback I have at all is I think the previous levels should be darkened a bit more. It’s sometimes a little too cluttered to see where I’m going. Great stuff. Congrats and good luck.

it was genuinely great, i really like the style of the game and old levels were being shown in the back as we progress was soo cool
