Nice visuals! Would suggest increasing the attack range of the character, maybe as an upgrade? Regardless, good work for such a short time!

Very cool metroidvania style game ✨

Pros:
Art is incorporated well 
Soundtrack is calming
The mechanics for the game were implemented quite well (maybe the ledge compensation could be a bit smaller)
Lighting was quite nice

Cons:
Damage doesn't feel very impactful
It felt a bit cramped, I think the levels could do with more open space
The boss seemed a bit small, I would scale it up some more to make it feel more intimidating

Great submission! 👌

Developer

appreciate the feedback! the level feeling "small" is probably due to the fact that the mc's hitbox is large, approx 3x4 tiles😅so you're forced to squeeze through some places.

great light!! I've always been amazed by people who can work with URP haha
but I must admit that the game has a rather small attack range and control responsiveness, which is confusing :(
(and pls can you rate my game too?)

Developer

yeah im not that good at making actual gameplay be good as i am at making effects😅 will work on that.. thanks for the feedback!

The game is strong in terms of lighting, visuals, and graphics. However, I don't know why it starts to drop, making the game slow for me. The audio in the game is very suitable, and it contains beautiful mini-games, but it didn't grab my attention enough to explore them.

Developer

i tried my best to optimize the visuals and the lighting.. i aplogize if you got a bad experience because of lag issues. appreciate the feedback tho!

Great visuals! The wall-slide was also really cool to see added, couldn't have been easy. Great job!

Love the visual look and the haunting music! Interesting idea too, to have your companion be the only source of light.
I managed to cause a weird visual glitch turning the whole game bright red, possibly by accidentally clicking outside the game screen right when enemy was attacking.

Developer

hm interesting, never got that bug before. thanks for the feedback tho!

Yo that’s an interesting perspective to put the theme into. Loved the HK vibes, difficult naturally. Well done!

really looks cool with the lighting.
I can tell you were going for the hollow knight vibes. 
quick feedback: 
there is a slight bug where if you stand underneath the enemy it just loops endlessly. 

besides that its fun play! 
Rate / Play my game too (if you haven't already).
Goodluck!

 yeah that bug came really unexpectedly, tho to this day i still have no idea why is it happening.. making ai is hard

glad you liked the game!

What a great game, but it's a bit difficult.

Developer

Reminded of Googdis upcoming game,

Are you a fan of Cave story by chance? cause it got the same vibe when playing it, Its not a shooter like cave story, but i felt the same feeling when i played it.
