Argh it's another one of those situations where i end up tell myself "why didn't i think of that???"
Of course having to repeat the intro feels bad -_- (especially with the length of the intro cutscene and the short platforming section beforehand)
As for the difficulty ! I definitely agree that the game could have used a more lenient first level, i always seem to underestimate how difficult the levels/challenges i create are for most people (since i spend a lot of time playing difficult platformers/games)
I feel like i could have explained the wall/latch jumps better since it's as simple as just holding the Jump button during the ledge-grabbing animation, which in turn will automatically make you do said Wall/Higher Jump -x-
The lack of visual/audio feedback and a clear and simple explanation is probably why most people struggle with it, it's not that complicated i swear 😭🙏
Thanks for trying the game and for the great feedback ^v^
