Hi. Like others before me, I had a hard time getting started. I tried forever to reach one of the walls in order to be able to jump again, as the instructions told me. Then I found the left path, but wasn't able to finish the game that way either I'm afraid. 

Developer

Thank you for playing the game and thank you for the feedback, it will be very useful. The wall jump is pretty useless especially at the beginning so maybe I will introduce it later. I will try to add a message to help the player if he dies too many times in the dark cave.Did you find the cave? And Did you find the torchlight in the air with the moving platforms outside of the caves? What was the issue?

It's like a cute metroidvania, the flashlight was pretty awkward to use at first but the caves luckily were not overly punishing👍(my comment was sent multiple times sorry)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback. You only have one life so I prefer to not be to punishing. I rushed the level design part due to the lack of time, it could be longer. But if it’s longer, it could be to difficult to finish with one life only so I will maybe improve it a little after the Jam end. I was first thinking about a game like “the lost vikings” (or “Trine” if you are younger) but it was a little over scoping so I finally gave all the powers to one character only. So maybe I will do a “lost vikings” version of the game one day.

Your game has a great concept of increasing darkness as we go deep, but i couldn't understand how am i supposed to clear the stage T_T

Developer

It’s also an exploration game. Don’t only go in the caves.

Awesome bro! But it's really hard to understand haha. In the beggining, I was like 10 minutos just dying and dying. Good project, congratulations!
