But I would suggest to update the controls, make it more easier.
Thank you all so much for playing my game and giving feedback, makes me happy to be alive!
Are the levels randomly generated? Some of the dead ends felt really unfair.
It would be cool to randomise the colour scheme in each level. I believe Desert Golfing does that, and it helps an infinite game feel more exciting.
Controls were good, mechanics fun.
It looks pretty though! And the music is nice n moody.
the wall of darkness moves a bit too fast, considering there isn't a lot in place to make the platforming fast/efficient enough to be able to dodge it quick enough. if there was more added to the character movement script (coyote time, smoother walljumping, no hooking onto collision boxes) then this would be fine; but given we only had 72 hours to make these entries, remember it's important to account for the mechanics that might not be well implemented enough to allow for smooth gameplay. I died quite a few times for this reason :joy:
otherwise with that said, great work! :)
Overall well done!
a big hug to everyone, and I await your evaluations regarding my game

In any case, the game was interesting- though I don't think there's a win condition other than make it to the right of the stage where you hop off- and it seems to loop forever. I really like how the music adds some static and whitenoise as the death-wall approaches. that's pretty cool! Nice work.
@smeljey Thank you for playing!
With the amount of feedback I have received maybe an updated version with more content and better controls is in store.
