I like it! Great approach to 2-button platformer, moves/bounces are predictable so it is easy to control the character.

A solid platformer! The bouncing mechanics is an interesting twist and turns out not too hard to control! Very enjoyable game, great variety of puzzles!

Wow this game is pretty awesome, I was having a lot of fun playing, but every time I die I have to restart all the way from the beginning! :(

Good implementation of a fun mechanic, with nice enemy design and art style. If I could have seen new content by restarting from the level instead of going all the way back to the story I would definitely have played a lot more.

It's nice work though, and I understanding wanting people to face the challenge of beating the whole thing in one go.

Really cool little game! The controls are suprisingly smooth and easy to use, the soundtrack is simple but effective and the gameplay mechanics are really nice overall - I like the ability to disarm your enemies before destroying them :P Keep up the good work!

Nice game and very creative ! The diversity in the ennemies and in the different part of the castle makes it that we want to play again to discover new things !

This is great! A simple but well implemented mechanic, a nice little world to explore and complete and having upgrades was a nice extra.

Very cute and well put together, good job!

(I feel like my time playing VVVVVV helped prepare me for this quest. :D)

Fun game, though it seems confusing as to where I need to go

A little buggy with me (sometimes sticks on ceil or floor), but I have seen enough to like it well. :)

Pretty good! Interesting mechanic. Maybe i was just greedy for the treasure but I felt that it got tough quite quickly. There are many rooms to explore which was nice, seems like a lot of thought went into the level design.

I was bouncing so hard that I bounced off the screen on the second level. But the next time around I finished the game with no problems and it was tons of fun. Reminds me of exploration platformers for old computers (Dizzy, Miecze Valdgira or kinda recently released l'Abbaye des Morts).
Super-fun mechanic and clever level design! The only complaint I have is that the final boss is a joke with the flaming sword. :)
