Wow, very fun game ! I stopped after dying 99 times :D

I love the idea of spawning platform blocks, but the levels are very hard ! Thank god for the checkpoints :D

I found the music not really fitting the gameplay, what about some bluegrass banjo instead ?
Wouldn't it be nicer ? :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85mDyWCgHy0

Good work and thanks for making this game, we had a fun time dying and retrying!

Shift and space at the same time is a really awkward combination for me, especially while trying to also control my jumps. I literally couldn't get past the second set of spikes in the first level. The core mechanic looks like a really neat idea, but the controls just made the game unbeatable for me and my awkward hands.

Game is pretty hard!!! but really cool idea and pretty fun world to mess around with. Very melancholic soundscape for the game

I agree the shift + space combo isn't comfortable to pull-off. The concept is pretty cool though!

I liked bounding gameplay and story. It is pretty nice. Some levels are relly hard and I try to jump to block but I died and died :D

Could be a nice idea for a platformer but the controls need some tweaking. It is really difficult to coordinate jumping, placing a block, and landing on the same block at the same time unless you are standing still.

This game is pretty good. Im not a big fan of rage platformers and the character feels very heavy and hard to control. But I really like the general mechanic and the humor is great.

Cool game! Don't have much to criticize, maybe only some more music would be nice.
Well done!

Nice platformer with a few puzzle mechanics! It was quite fun, though I abandoned at the 4th level because the difficulty was too high for me. Also, thanks for adding the option to change the controls, it helped reduce the difficulty for me ^^

I really liked the few cut scenes with the girls, they were really funny!

Very good game. I loved the puzzle beside sometime we got stuck and can not dig the block in you side, but the restart to last checkpoint save this and maybe is what makes the game more challenger. Well done guys! :clap: :clap: :clap:

This was a fun challenge. The frustration level was getting deeper and deeper as I progressed the levels.

Cool game, very frustrating but rewarding when you manage to clear the levels!

Definitely challenging. I keep thinking it is Malfoy going through a portal resembling the Mirror of Erised

Really hard game, but it's fun. I also like that there's a story.

Nice mechanic with placing blocks.
Makes you do some occasional leap of faith.

(Stucked here)

It's too hard to get or put box on near place. That is not look like a normal game feature, but I can't get the other way.

Anyway, I also have got enough fun for most of time. Good challengeful game!

@gogu Glad you had fun! XD

The only way to get past that point is to run straight without jumping & placing boxes underneath at the same time to avoid the spikes. That's actually perhaps the hardest part of the game since it is also the last, after that, the game ends, and credit rolls!

Thank you for playing ~
