Very cool platformer ! The controls felt great, appart from a weird glitch that would consume my dumble jump on the first jump :/ I especially liked the level design, it was very inspired. Also the music is beautiful !!

@upint tanky you for your feedback. that jump bug is a wierd interaction that i could not get to work problerly. that "glich" happens when you jump right when your coyote time runs out. for some reason you jump "normal" and use the doble jump at the same time. I am still looking into it. the good thing is you gain a happy medium between a normal jump and a normal + double jump.

I love the art and music. The gameplay is relaxing and non-punishing. The mood and concept is great.

It would have been cool if I there was a special power that happened when I got enough ethereal essences. Maybe a super jump or an AOE attack.

Congrats on your submission and I hope you keep working on it!

Cool and relaxing game! The art is well done, and the music fits well. I also really liked the small secret with the dancing mushrooms. I had the same bug mentioned before where the double jump is consumed which made me miss a few platforms, but apart from that well done!

Really great little game, I also loved the secret mushroom party. Some of the platforming was a bit challenging near the end but overall it felt really good!

Very nice platformer, classic in form but effective. I liked the shortcuts available, they're the kind of little ‘secrets’ I like in this type of game :smile: I really liked the music, very peaceful. Sometimes (a little visual bug?) I was able to jump onto the lower part of a platform (without actually being on it). I also wondered how necessary it was for the gameplay to be very zoomed in (because I played the whole time in zoomed-out mode).
Well done!

@liliebagage the zoom was just so you can see the art we used better than when zoom out all the time. Also you can set the prefered field of view this way if you cared enought. ;)

Wonderful artstyle, especially the player character is charming! The little creatures were cute and I almost felt bad for harvesting them – but after being hit by their projectiles enough times I took joy in cutting them down. That'll teach them! Jumping felt a bit inconsistent with the jump height being seemingly different almost every time. Sometimes it was also possible to double jump, which I didn't mind, but it was unclear if it's an intended mechanic. Some of the levels felt a bit short or too simple, mixed with the problems I had with jumping, the platforming was at times too challenging. I found a secret meeting of mushrooms which sparked joy and left me wondering if there are more secrets I missed!

I really loved the design of the character. The game atmosphere is good with a nice music.
I appreciated the fact there are some hidden ways :wink:
Good job !

@tatu-heinamaki thank you for the feedback, i am already looking into some odd behavior with the jump, so I will set aside a bit of time to feel out the overall functionality of the jump.
FYI:
We have variable jump height on the normal jump depending on the time you hold the jump button.
Usually you should always have the double jump, unless you already jump while in the air.

Fun little platform, enjoyed the art design and the fighting system, but was a little bit hard to jump to some obstacles. Overall, great job on such a tight deadline.

Great platformer with great graphics and suiting music. The jump feels a bit off since if you hold it you jump further and makes some jumps a bit challenging
