Really fun, the cutscenes are awesome! Dashing feels fun, especially chaining them through enemies. The one thing that really bugged me was that the dash cooldown timer felt way too long, to where I'd have to sit and wait for it to recharge, especially when trying to get a fast time. Other than that, I enjoyed this game!

i suck ass at this so i cheated and just watched the cutscenes for the better endings (thank you for including them separately), it's a fun movement system and I like the game it's just not my forte lmao

I do wish there was a way to go back to the main menu other than finishing the level though, a couple times i made mistakes that were so bad it wasn't even worth going on to finish it

Funny presentation, gave me a couple of laughs

Very nice megaman like! being able to use the dash mechanic to save time is very genius too, also the level is very well made, you nailed the gamefeel.

My best time is 58 seconds :)

Solid game, pretty fun. I gave it a few attempts and I have geniuenly no idea how you're expected to get the good ending though. I'd also reccomend compressing the cutscenes, they're relatively low quality but have really big file sizes, which bloats up the entire game. You could compress the first cutscene down from 70 megabytes down to 9 without the video losing any quality. The cutscenes taking up 250 megabytes is funny when you consider the actual game only takes up 25 megabytes by itself

I'll be sure to look into that and update the game. I tried to hint at the dash being able to zoom past wigged skeletons, but I guess I did a pretty bad job at it.  I'll be sure to modify the video files as well.
