Graphics are nice and the sounddesign itself works very well as well. Overall a very good entry. Keep it up.
But overall the graphics are super awesome. The audio goes very well and the gameplay just works. You've done very good on this :D nice work my friend
Gameplay was pretty cool too, just wish there was some sort of coyote time.
I did have one little bug: I wasn't able to recreate it but I think I might have been hit by something as I was falling? But I ended up at the bottom of the map I think, but I had to restart the game since I couldn't get back to the top. I did continue afterwards but as I said, I'm terrible at platforming.

I also wasn't super keen on the lightning effect, maybe it was meant to blind me but if it wasn't then I think making it a little transparent would be helpful.
If it was any longer, I'm sure that I'd be complaining about the meteors ruining a run with me being unable to do anything about it, but I was lucky enough to only get hit by them in relatively safe spots. Still, some kind of indicator for them would go a long way.
But it's counterbalance by the awesome visual ! It's really awesome, with the background and the different level color, it's cool ! (oh, and love the little cutscene at the end)
But I must admit, the wind feels a bit weird. I was running towards a platform with wind active, but then it instantly stopped and I couldn't adjust for the change of movementspeed and ran right off the cliff haha :D
I had trouble jumping on some of the platforms.
For example: one of the platforms required me to jump on the left side only even though the visuals made it look like I should have been able to jump on the right side as well.

But I really like this game :3
Good job ;)
