This was a short and very fun experience (its one of the few games that has had me spend more than 15 minutes on). Your squad has done very well! Congrats!
I'm suprised you opted out of humor, I think you would have gotten a really good rating for it
Maybe add tweaking the spawn of collectables could help, some watches (required to survive) were on impossible locations on the second part of the game (almost inside spiky cloud).
But in general I loved the game, theme, idea and aesthetics. Awesome job :smile: :thumbsup:
And, glad to see other reaper user :)
Wah such a great simple game, SFX, music and gameplay are really fine! I'm just frustated not being able to reach the end after many attempts, I always die by the timer 😢
But very pleasant game, I really enjoyed retrying it a lot!
I like those smooth animations and the whole game cycle, pretty good!
Cute game! It gets quite difficult later one. Controls feel well put in place too!
