Started from a simple platformer game to a mini-rage-game, good thing there were checkpoints, but after getting defeated a couple more times, I got teleported back to the very beginning. I'm not sure that I lost to much checkpoint tokens or was it loop around or was a bug, but that felt like a big loss of progress for me, and that was where my run ended.

What a platformer game, the difficulty curve got too steep at the end(I wasn't sure if I'm even close to the end), I wasn't a good meteor rider, but the game looks very stylish.

What a dreamy atmosphere, I loved the maps and the palette swaps entering different areas. Really liked the parkour on the rocks. Adorable sprites too

Great art and music, the meteor mechanic was great but I did struggle with the control on this game a bit. Moving around while jumping lagged a little which made it hard to time things. The level design and platforms felt very well spaced and intuitive, if the controls were adjusted a little this would make for a very addicting play.

The music, sfx, and art are all really good. I'm not the best at platformers especially with the metor mechanic but I still had a fun time playing. Awesome game.

love the art and music! I liked the meteor mechanic! It was a bit aimless feeling at times? any way great job!

charming atmosphere with good sound design and cute art, i must say i am not very fan of the platforming on random asteroids that you sometimes need too wait for to align for a bit long, despite being able to manipulate where they spawn. mixed with the long jump king-like falls, i am unsure about how it gels

This game has such a charming atmosphere! The art, the music, the sfx -they fit together so well! The flying objects the you have to jump on are a very cool mechanic for a platformer. I really enjoyed playing this! :]

The randomness of objects really made some of the objectives hard. I had to wait almost a minute before an object came at the certain height needed to get to the next part. I think you nailed a vibe for the game between sounds and music. Good Job!

This is such a cute game! I loved the visuals and the music :) It was really nice how the difficulty gradually increased as you went along. Great work!

Great platformer! The main character is really cute. The dreamlike aesthetic is very well done. The platforming section with flying objects is a fresh concept; it reminded me of games like Jump King. That said, depending on the player, it can feel a bit frustrating. Other than that, really great game!

Really nice game, but spacebar for jump in a 2d platformer can sometimes be a little bit uncomfortable, idk, probably thats just my problem.

Really nice art style.

Would give 5 stars for art but took it down to 4 because of there were multiple colors, and it is called bit jam.

Overall really good game!
