Nice game, I especially love the art style, a few things I could say, it would be better if you could dash directly from the rope. the game is also challenging. I really love the colors you used. Overall a great game

I quite like the look of the game, but I don't understand how to use the rope lol

Good start but is to easy to die on first spike

Control scheme feels like it could have been simplified. Love the graphics and the overall feel of the game.

I like the mood and the game is pretty challenging (Took me quite a while to finish it). I wish the controls were a bit more less stiff, and I think it would feel better if you were able to jump off ropes and if you couldn't change directions mid dash. Both of those things threw me off a couple times, so it took me a while to beat it. Overall I had a fun time though!

Very nice art style! You could put that one screenshot you have up there ^ into the game somewhere (maybe as world-space UI at the start?), I had to alt-tab out to find how to use a rope :D I think you might need to make the hitboxes a little more lenient, I found myself constantly accidentally nudging a spike and dying, but otherwise it's very nice!

A great platform! I'm a youtuber, your game is very nice! I want to make a video with the best games of LDJam46. Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOdTsWE7iIk .
Can I find your game also on indiexpo website? The channel is linked with them.

Pretty great pixel art and music. Really love the aesthetic of the game. However the movement felt a bit too floaty and caused me die a lot. Other than that it's a really fun and beautiful game.

Amazing graphic for the game even colour scheme which I love about this game. the control seems quite a slow pace expect from the dash. the 'p' for putting down the fox spirit seem distant reach on the keyboard. instead of 'f' to climb on the robe why can't it be 'up' instead as it could be easier for non-gamer as it can be upsetting throughout the map. quite a challenge because of the spike but overall good game. its well done game!

The graphics are really great, I especially like how the map looks, but I feel like the player sprite animations could be improved. also I feel that the players speed could be increased as movement can feel slow when not dashing. Providing a way to change the music volume would also be a great addition. Good game, but with a bit more polishing on the controls this could be a really great game, especially for those that would like a challenge.

I would be happy to use rope with SPACE as well. The game was hard to me, I need a better reflexes :smile:

Here is my attempt:

I liked the game and found the color palette very beautiful. The controls are a little too widely spaced for my taste. Maybe if I use wasd instead of the arrows it will be better.
What caught my attention the most was the music. It's pretty cool! Who composed?

Congratulations for the game!

@euler-moises Music is the only thing that I didn't do myself. It's from this free package https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/audio/music/loop-music-free-111896
