Love the pun of Count Down being a vampire pillow!

Submitted

The platforming was very good, even if it was pretty standard mechanics. If there was a count down, I didn't notice it. I think I also broke the final boss, I attacked it twice and it disappeared.

I really enjoyed this game! Count Pillow is such a fun twist on the concept, and the platforming was fun! I think the game could be a little more challenging and have an active health indicator, but I still had a lot of fun playing this!

Nice work with this Vampire Pillow character. I loved it!

Submitted

Very nice take, the plateforming felt really responsive. And what to say about the main character design, just perfect! The fact that you can just push the enemies of cliff is very fun!!!

Nice game! The platforming was quite fun and the sound effects were good. I think the combat could be improved (and did that boss go down in like 4 hits?) but as a platformer, it was really good. 

Maybe this was just me but I got a little thrown off by the parallax in the background, meaning if there was no foreground objects on the screen, I couldn't really get a sense for where I was going. Potentially a few more objects could fix this and also flesh out the level so that the platforms don't look like they are just floating in empty space.

Overall, really good game, graphics were super clean too. Great job :D

I really liked the character art and the platforming was fun! nice job!

the platforming was really nice! if i were to give feedback, because of the background, it was sometimes hard to orient myself while jumping  and falling down. since the level is big, maybe the background can be more detailed instead of just one image and the parallax effect. for the level, design, i at first just went to the right since it was open when i was supposed to go up haha. i think certain parts can be closed off if you dont want the player to go there. all in all, the game was fun, thank you!

Really fun platformer! The concept of a vampire pillow racing against the sunrise is creative and fits the countdown theme perfectly. The movement felt responsive, especially the combination of double jumping and gliding. I also liked how the dawn constantly pushed me upward, creating tension throughout the entire run. The boss fight was a great climax. My only suggestion would be to make some enemy attacks slightly easier to read, but overall this was a very enjoyable entry. Keep up the good work!

Awesome art style and sound effects! Specifically the pillow sound effect. I just kept spamming attack just hear it haha

Awesome, I'm not the only one who associated a Count title with the theme. 

I enjoyed the level design the most. There was a brief moment in the middle where it was just jumping up without much happening. 

Submitted

I really like the protagonist’s design. The action mechanics are quite varied and well-done, too. My only complaint is that I wish there were signposts or similar markers indicating, for instance, that you need to go up first. (When I headed right along the floor, I just kept running into flat, open areas.)
