Love the feedback, the theme is where you use your own health to perform abilities to complete the levels. I had plans to make it increase to a point where you would have to make decisions on if using the health was worth it or if there was another way around. Sadly I did run out of time having to work on the Monday and mismanaged time. Means Alot that you enjoyed the game.anyway man. Thanks.

WASD would have been nice. It's a nice platformer but too frustrating for me. The difficulty option doesn't seem to change much, maybe some additional platforms on the easy mode or extra lifes would have helped. There was one level where I got stuck (i hade one of those glowing points and constantly missed ist and when i got over it i fell down a couple platforms later). I didn't like the flame meter since it can really freak you out when you almost completed a level and die because of this thing. So I'd recommend you to generally make an easier mode for the easily frustrated players like me.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jharler","author_uid":"1001548","time":"2018-12-05T20:40:46Z","epoch":1544042446,"modified":1544042446,"text":"Beautiful graphics and music.  I really like the lighting effects.  I was happy to see that controller was supported, but sad to see that I couldn't use the D-Pad.  I prefer using the D-Pad over the analog stick for platformers.  Jumping was also tricky.  It seemed there was too much momentum behind the jumps.
