Really like the visuals and style of this game! The intro made me chuckle. The jumping mechanics are a little fussy, I had a rough time getting the timing down on the death pit jumps. Did really appreciate the quick restart though, would have been way more frustrating if I had to rewatch the intro, so was very appreciative it just threw me back into the game. Solid start, I could see this getting fleshed out into something bigger. Good job! :)

The color palette is nice. I've had to replay it 2 or 3 times because I keep dying from the pixel-perfect jumps you have to make (but hey, it's not a very long game, so not a problem). Simple but fun to play!

Depths' Tale [JAM VERSION]I liked the game and the fact the game was made with Rust makes me happy. The graphics are simple but the color palette is amazing, the sound is good as well.
Things to improve?:
- I love platforms but not everybody feel the same way, I think balancing the jump would make the game more enjoyable for non-platformers people.

Katari: The Curse of VaryxThanks for the feedback! Yeah, I mentioned that already in another comment but I slightly notched up the difficulty to make the game somewhat engaging (at least I was thinking that will happen 😂) because the gameplay was, in my opinion, too simple. But you are not the first to mention that the jumping part was a bit difficult 😅
Short and sweet. You mentioned you were going for a complete experience - you accomplished that for sure! It's small and simple but what I played was fun and it all felt very complete.

Guardians of DecayHey nice! fun sound effects and music, and nice cutscenes -- I would have kept playing if there were more! The jump and platforms seemed well balanced!

What Lies BeneathVery fun. I enjoyed that it required stone cold nerves of steel to hit those pixel precise jump. Since that's the core of the game, then why not?! Great job. Even better was the cutscenes. I thought it felt kind of funny, and was animated very well. It reminded me of an old "The Simpsons" short. Very cool game and fun.

Monster PotionLoved the intro cutscene. Some of the jumps were quite challenging for a non-platform gamer like me, but I kept trying 'till I got it

The animation and art style were cool.

What Dreams May ComeRun b*! Love the intro, i heard it so many times. It requires pixel precision in some sections, and this makes the run really challenging. But for a first experience is a nice result.
