The music was great and the art and level design was really interesting. It feels like you got a lot in a short space of time. You did a great job implementing the concept behind the game.

Though the resolution changing between sprites wasn't such a great look and the controls could be a little tighter. I would recommend for example allowing the player to control the jump height by holding the button longer as it makes for much nicer platforming. I also had some issues with not being able to see obstacles at the sides of the screen, other than that pretty nice game with an intriguing story. :v:","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"fingamer","author_uid":"1004024","time":"2017-08-02T10:17:43Z","epoch":1501669063,"modified":1501669063,"text":"@retr0verse Thank you for playing and giving us this feedback!

Then, the jumping felt quite clunky and recharching your battery is needlessly slow. It isn't like in Alien Isolation for example where it's slow to add tension because the alien could still kill you. Here, you just stand there waiting and nothing can hurt you. It's just boring. Also, when you die, you might as well restart with full health because if you press \"restart\" in the pause menu, you restart with your battery full anyway with no consiquences ! \nFinally, make something happen when the battery reaches 0; a \"game over\" text for example - just anything ! Don't leave the player in the dark with no clue on what to do. In the game right now, running out of battery has no gameplay impact because you can just press \"restart\" and have 100% energy.\n\nOther than that, good game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"fingamer","author_uid":"1004024","time":"2017-08-05T15:21:10Z","epoch":1501946470,"modified":1501946470,"text":"@batheo3000 Thanks for your constructive feedback.
