*and +1 for the tutorial ;)
@flashviper we're trying to implement a restart system, but you can hit space bar for now to restart
@fabrizio-spadaro Thanks! we'll be tweaking the platform spawning script to ensure a consistent viable path
@littlemiky Thank you so much!
@abb1x Yay! Thank you for playing :smile:
@bostor Thank you for stopping by and playing our game :fire:
I appreciate a lot the tutorial part that was straightforward.
The slingshot can be improved, it's a bit difficult to aim with that small surface for the mouse.
I got stuck on a rock when I died, but sh** happens ^^
However, I had trouble to aim precisely with the flame, sometimes I fell whereas I hit well the other platformer, it was a bit frustating.
But, overall good job, it was fun to play !
I really love the indicator for your trajectory, the animation in it was a nice touch! I do wish that you didn't need to start clicking on the player to move (like it'd be nice if I could click anywhere and drag down to launch myself). I love the music, and the UI for the menu was great, surprisingly polished for a jam game! The graphics were nice, I initially disliked the square rain from the clouds, but I came to respect the clarity of it, it's clear where the hitbox is, which might not be the case if you'd used rain particles. So overall it was a very cool game, I would have definitely played for longer if I didn't have to restart each time! :heart:
