I love the style, everything being made of single pixels. I also liked the responsive super fast controls. Overall it's a nice game and I would love to see more content! :smiley:

I got softlocked after taking glider. can't fall back in the hole. Another thing is i would prefer if the camera followed the player more smoothly. I see you put some effort into this though. Keep it up!

@wormius thanks for playing. Getting the glider is the end of the game, so I'm excited you completed it! I agree that it shouldn't seem like you can go back unless you can. It is possible, but the positioning is very difficult/buglike. Ideally I would put something only glider accessible in the previous area and open the hole to two "pixel" wide, or gate the ending area once you get through, or actually make more game.
Thanks for mentioning the camera.

Nice little game, a bit too short, especially since it seem to end when you get new upgrade. Had fun with the glider tho!

Simple, but cool platformer game ! The square design is really nice.

Good job :slight_smile:

Fun little adventure platformer, my only real complaint was that the platforming in places was a little tricky due to the fairly floaty controls. Apart from that a really great entry and one I think you should continue to develop, amazing job!

The music got to me pretty quickly haha. I actually thought the platforming was rather smooth, especially for the single-pixel map.

Cool game. Has a strong theme going on, with the pixel graphics and music choice. The shooting feels good, it would be even better with some sound for it. I understand the pixel graphics, but it could use at least a bit of detail. Sometimes it was hard to tell what is killing me / where I can go etc.

The controls required some precision, but I assume that was the idea :)

Nice. The controls were a bit too snappy for me. I liked the art! The graphics and the music made a good mood! Good entry.

Enjoyed the platforming, and the querky text. The music quickly got old, but at least you included it. I enjoyed the simple graphics and simple mechanics.
