Hey There! This is one of the best entries I've played! Made me feel like a speedrunner playing this. Really polished and love the art style + tight control scheme! The sound effects were also on point, especially the pendulum thumps. The game is hard though! One small feedback is that the last jump section was way too close. 16 minutes later I made it all the way to the end :smile: (also, noticed the total time included the "hour" mark, that would be too cruel!)Anyways, really great entry, you should be proud!

Cool game! The controls were very tight, I only wish the camera was a bit less "floaty". Great work!

I wasn't able to get very far because I'm bad at platformers but the controls are very good which is the lifeblood of a platformer.

Realy nice game with a good vibe of Super Meet Boy!
Did not finish it but I was close to the end I think (I hope ^^')

Some smart level design and solid gameplay. One trick I used to make wall grabbing easier - holding A and D at the same time when jumping across the walls.

nice game! Simple to learn but hard to master. If your trying to go for a speedrunning vibe, an auto reset button would be helpful

Fun game, Felt the timing could be a little less tight at the first few checkpoints

Great game !! really good concept. Got stuck in middle for a while but figured out the way later. Awesome work for a limited time jam. You should go with this concept further. A little more work from the SFX sides would have done wonder, but then again the time was limited so I can understand the complexity. Overall really good job. Please do check out my submission as well.
