The slow down mechanic helps navigate the spaces a lot as the normal speed makes it impossible to dodge the harsh corners, but the energy drain it imposes makes it just as bad an option to use too much.
I would suggest to make an intro area that eases the player into it more, to have them feel they can play the game before the hard stuff shows up as much.
I also encountered a funny glitch. I started to use my mouse buttons for the actions as that was easier to manage, then the game kept restarting. I realize the play again button from the death scene does not actually disappear at any time! So I was clicking it on the specific spot it was in.
Good game overall, could use some tweaks to be more fun.
