At first, I found the character movement a little rough, but as I progressed, I stopped paying as much attention to it. The way you unlock abilities as you progress is fantastic, and I’d give that 5 stars. I know how difficult that can be to achieve.

I loved the music. The art, although it has some inspiration behind it, still feels original and unique. It has soul.

The simplicity of the game and its cozy atmosphere are really what give this game its value. I really enjoyed collecting the little spider’s babies and then getting the floating ability. It gave me quite a few ideas for the future.

I only have the ending left to talk about. I wasn’t expecting it to be like that, but it works. It’s cute.

Really great work. I genuinely mean it, because you can feel that there’s heart behind it.

I can tell that the protag is a real "fun-guy" (sorry) I have a soft sport for mushroom characters so I really loved getting to play as one.  great job

I loved the art, the characters, the quests, the music, and the new mechanics. At first I thought this would be an unpolished 1 hour metroidvania, but for a game jam, this is a REALLY good metroidvania game. The movement was a little clunky, but I loved all the different areas. Amazing work!

The movement mechanics feel nice and how you progresively unlock them.
Loved the side characters' sprites!

The gameplay feels quite nice, honestly. It's very easy to understand and to play with, but I don't fully get the cozy fall vibes. It is cozy, just not fall cozy. Nice job tho, feels like Hollow Knight <33
