Unfortunately, I seem to have the error with the cut-off screen, too. I've played in windowed mode, my screen resolution is 1920x1080 - the window was also too large for me to see the bottom row. So, I played in fullscreen mode to see where I was going.
I like the way you can use your items to clear your path. Felt like I was solving small puzzles while running.
The randomness of the drops were irritating, though - sometimes I got the item I needed, other times I got stuck, because a bin didn't contain a water bottle to destroy the next wall. I feel like the game would have been more enjoyable without the lucky draws. Also, I didn't see the difference between the wall crashable by dash and the dash-resisting walls at first - maybe a slightly different color might have helped. :)
I really liked the way you integrated the tutorial in the game level. No waiting, just playing. Always a fan of that approach!
When I see the words "childhood dream of flying through the night sky", I came up with the story:
The hospital is kind like a prison that built in your mind. The paper airplanes contain fragments of your memories — collecting them helps you recover those memories and overcome the shadows of your childhood. At last the moment you collect all the airplanes and let it flying through the night sky. It will bring the sunlight which is also the symbol of you accept your childhood trauma and ready to move on.
Sadly this is just a little running game. It's also a good game but not the kind of style I like:)
The sides were cut off on my screen which was not ideal. Once I completed a level but the light was still red though I could see nothing I missed, unless it was off my screen.
It felt like I was randomly losing sometimes, I think it was because I was too close to an elevator when the nurse uses it. Perhaps a non-instant transition or a grace period would help there.
But overall, I liked the game ;)
