The idea is interesting, but maybe the change in how strong gravity gets close to the thingy is a bit too strong? In some places you can fly for ages while in others you're nearly stuck to the ground it seems.

Anyhow I like that you put up challenge scores of how few moves people can try to beat it in. Gives some more depth to have these.

Agree with the other comments. Gravity was a bit weird, but the target scores were a really nice addition. Those add a lot of potential depth/replay value. I also really liked the art. Nice work!

Neat idea. I like how you can choose whether to roll around a bit or stick yourself to a surface, and have enough time to decide as you fly.

The color scheme is quite rich which is great, but sometimes I got confused about what's in the foreground and what's in the background and didn't instantly realize I could pass through parts of the level.

Other than that, great job.

I like the concept, but the gravity is a bit hard to figure out, especially with the weird rotation. At any given moment I can't consistently predict what will happen when I jump, so it's hard to come up with a good strategy other than spamming jump to get through the level. The pixel art's not bad, but a lot of the sprites are different resolutions (the character isn't even pixel art at all) which makes it feel a bit disjointed.

And props for the level design, which is surprisingly intricate for how simple the game appears at first glance (I like the tree level).

I really like the concept and I feel like the gravity is just fine. I think the levels are a little big as it takes a really long time to get from one point to another.

Neat game. For some reason this showed up while I was trying to find LD39 games though.
