Nice! I like that there's some explanation of the controls and it's quite smooth to play with!

Simple but pretty fun game and cute art.

Really pretty, it plays well too, is there a purpose to the crouch mechanic?

@pandalk there was intention for the level to involve sliding under obstacles using the crouch mechanic, but time became too much of a constraint.

We also wanted to implement an increasing difficulty curve but had to go for a middle of the road static difficulty instead. 🤷‍♂️

Cute game! At first I didn't realize you can double and triple jump. Also, if you time yourself just right, you can get stuck on a flat vertical side of a platform (that is -- until you jump).

Very cute game. Love the artstyle and music. It's spooky too just right for the upcoming season. The intro went a little fast, but i think it sets the pace for the game. I like it. Good Job.

I loved the art style in this game, and everything from the music to the sprites to the little string thing trailing behind my little guy was really well done. The tutorial section was also very cute, although I do wish there was a more efficient way to skip it. The game-play itself was simple, yet fun, and I had a good time with it. My high score was 240 points.

I love the cute sprites and the game became a lot more fun once I realized I could double and triple jump, this is something I know I could sink hours into. Only thing I ran into was that sometimes skipping the tutorial would LAUNCH me way past the my character and the camera would have to come back to where the character was lol

Made 220 on my last run ! It's a fun game, and quite pretty. It's sometimes a bit difficult but nothing unbeatable as long as you are patient and attentive. My only complaints might be that the theme, while respected, is included in a relatively generic way, and about the FPS or IPS ; this could be my screen, but I felt like the IPS weren't high enough for the speed of the game, tiring a bit the eye. This is especially visible in the intro sequence where the sprites gets a little bit choppy in their movement toward the left side of the screen.

It feels weird complaining about this because I usually don't care about FPS/IPS problem as long as its at a constant 30, but since this game is very dependent on its scrolling, I actually noticed it. Again, might be my hardware tho. Nice entry overall.

Nice! Feels coherent in style and works nicely. Good job!

Very interesting game! The controls are also very smooth! Recommended.

A very cute and fun game. The theme is well-developed, and it's just in time for Halloween. It's awesome that you managed to implement generation. Sometimes the bones spawn right next to ghosts, making them impossible to collect. Also, I didn't quite understand why the graves are deadly; aren't we supposed to be digging them up to steal the bones? Perhaps it would have been better to choose a different image for the danger, like a zombie, for instance.
