The control of the character is smooth too as a platformer. However, the character's animation is a bit too rigid, including the transitions between idle, movement, and attack. Also the hit effect can be more dramatic :) Good job anyway!"},{"author_name":"porglezomp","author_uid":"21051","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 2:45am","epoch":1409020800,"text":"I have to agree with everything nikki93 said. The art was GREAT, but the game design was dull. The fact that the portals forced you to replay the same part over and over again was bad design, and forcing the player to start the game over if they miss one jump is just brutal and boring."},{"author_name":"Kato","author_uid":"994","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 2:48am","epoch":1409020980,"text":"Man, that is one pretty game.

The aesthetic here is great. I was surprised to see the hanging crystals effected by the player character -- neat! The music is just above the barrier for acceptance for me. I usually raise a fuss about repetition, but this piece is only missing some variety.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The platforming works fairly well, though I fell into the void by jumping too far a handful of times. I think there needs to be more variety in the platforms to settle the mood; maybe just taller base platforms. The goal wasn't very inspired, and enemies were practically worthless. My summary judgement would be: great mood, not enough feedback, and unchallenging gameplay.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Nitpicks:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- The text is much too small (especially on a 1920x1080 display).\r<br\/>- Feedback is nonexistent. The only audio I'm hearing is the music -- the environment is aurally empty. Effects for player character jump\/attack\/step would add a lot, not to mention damage-taken effects for the enemies.\r<br\/>- Some platforms below the player character were not visible due to the screen shifting with the player as the player jumped."},{"author_name":"Resonious","author_uid":"38940","time":"Aug 29, 2014 @ 10:33pm","epoch":1409351280,"text":"It feels a bit choppy, but I imagine if you had more time, it would look fantastic.
