I liked the concept, but wasn't a fan of the character controller. Still killed myself a handful of times trying to make the leap of faith.

Thanks! I was having issues with the controller and the camera myself, but couldn't achieve what i wanted because of time crunches.

I liked the game mechanics, but they were a bit tricky to handle! I definitely understand the time crunch, so well done on your efforts! :D

Nice concept, but the camera was hard to control, and the text hard to read.

@icoso Thanks! I started the jam with less than 20 hours left, so I did what I could do.

@rafabriet Thanks as well! I was initially going to add voice, but that didn't work out.

I think you had a solid idea with the "1D" platforming, and I thought a few of the blind jumps, and one backwards section that I found, were kinda cool.

The mouse sensitivity was way way too high, and the text was pretty difficult to read. It made the game hard to read. Checkpoints also would have been nice, because after dying a bit of the way into the game, it kinda killed my motivation to keep going.

Good job on completing your first LD entry. Especially with the really short time frame, it's a big accomplishment!
