Not a big fan of the big text in the bottom right, self I prefer that to be smaller and more discrete. Something you can look up, not something that gets in your face.\nIf you jump as you're about to get crushed you get \"stuck\" inside the falling block, in the same way you can escape tricky situations. \nMusic is a bit repetetive and simple, but it gets the job done. It fits well with the game and the sound effects (swoosh on jump) is neat!\nAnimations are few but well done! Controls work well.\nLiking the camera work but there is an issue on the 2nd level when you get blocks that fill up the screen and you have to go on top of what you can see..  Maybe for a future release try to get the randomness more towards the finish or to empty columns(?) since most of the time I'm waiting and can't decide where I want the next block to fall.\nFor a game of this kind, it would also be good with a visual clue in some way to hint the player roughly in what direction the goal is. A small arrow in the edge of the screen, starting a level starts with the camera at the goal and zooms to player, a minimap, the name of the level giving a hint.. something like that so you know whether you're supposed to traverse horizontally or vertically.\n\nSorry if it sounds like I'm nagging, don't get me wrong. I really liked the graphics\/artstyle\/audio\/controls\/gameplay\/idea.\nYou did a really nice job with the theme and I'm looking forward to where you can bring this game and I hope I catch a glance of your upcoming jam games as well! :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Akadream","author_uid":"1052043","time":"2018-08-18T23:43:15Z","epoch":1534635795,"modified":1534635795,"text":"Wow, thank you so much for your comment @nightsong ! There is a lot to say in this game and you raised major of them.\nWe are really proud of us because we was only two with no skill in sound design and pixel art it was the first time i used MonoGame.
