I only wish that the art had a stronger distinction between background and foreground objects. While the environment art is wonderful, it really sets a very high standard for yourself when easier shortcuts used in the levels proper, while not bad by itself, is a bit of a disappointment compared to the uniquely-made assets from earlier maps.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The music is also wonderful, though there is stylistic dissonance between sound effects and the musical score.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I also died from falling into a pit (which oh... I guess the ice thing is not something you want to touch), the game doesn't reload for some reason. eh\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Best of luck in finishing the rest of this project. Organizing a team after a jam is a hurdle in my experience"},{"author_name":"Tselmek","author_uid":"48996","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 12:47pm","epoch":1429706520,"text":"Multiple amazing mechanics.

Love the potion idea and the way it turns out mechanically is super interesting.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The visual narratives you tell in the background are super interesting and I love how effectively you got the sense of contrasting scale across!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Minor things: \r<br\/>\r<br\/>-Ability to skip\/make text scroll faster would be cool\r<br\/>-I know it looks better for the animation, but having the character's horizontal motion stop when you land is super jarring and makes the character's movement feel unresponsive."},{"author_name":"retrophantom","author_uid":"48958","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 2:06pm","epoch":1429711260,"text":"my 1st all 5 star game 'o' such a good game."},{"author_name":"Yoon","author_uid":"50232","time":"Apr 22, 2015 @ 6:02pm","epoch":1429725420,"text":"The art is SICK ! I was stunned by all the colours and the level of detail just about everywhere in the game. The music adds in a welcomed strange feeling. But if I could rate the art 10 stars out of 5 then I'd definitely do it.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>More than gameplay, the narration is great. It was stunning to discover the Wizard as I climbed the ladder.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Again, this is above awesome. Too bad there isn't a proper ending.
