Pretty fun game. It describes the theme pretty well and also I like the kind of 3D / 2D feel to it. Great game. Except that I died like 1000 times xP

It was short but still fun to play due to the challenge. I'd make the map transitions smoother, they can be quite confusing.

Congrats on finishing your first LD! The transition between levels is a bit abrupt, and I managed to get the game to crash by going left from the start of the second area.

The Mac version doesn't work for me. It just doesn't launch. I'll stick around and see if you update it. I really want to try it.

Mac version is broken for me. I'm getting one of those "file is damaged" errors.

Fixed the Mac build, it should be working now. I also noticed that the main menu is cut off strangely when it is not at a 16:9 aspect ratio, but other than that it should be working. Let me know if it works for Mac, and Linux if anyone has the opportunity. Thanks!

Nice use of 2.5D, but I found the game to be a bit buggy, I kept teleporting to random bits of the room and ended up falling off completely.

Challenging! I kept falling through the level on the part where the spike shoot upwards from the ground... I would fall into a lower part of the level and then get stuck behind a wall or fall off the level and fall forever

i liked it though

Love the graphics!

Not bad. Some decent challenge. The music and sound effects were way, way too quiet. I couldn't hear them at all without headphones. Animation would help the overall experience. Also the character moved pretty fast, so dialing that back a bit would probably make the game feel better as well.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will hopefully continue to work on this as a side project.
