Very simple game, but I really liked the challenge!
It could use a bit more player feedback during gameplay and a more interesting background to make it feel complete.
Thanks man. im still fixing some parts and bugs. I apreciate you playing it.
wait did you win? nobody has been able yet.
Yes took me one hour 😅(I need help)
A basic but enjoyable experience. Certain areas were really challenging but can see the vision of a tough/rewarding gameplay loop.
Would recommend giving the player character some sound effects, something like a jumping noise to give the character more weight as the move about.
Overall great work!

damm youre right. im adding that.
did you get to the end?
Unfortunately no. Got one of the squares but the room with ehe procedurally generating blocks seemed impossible to navigate.
I have many issues with this game. Usually platformers have Ledge forgiveness, after the player stops being on a ledge there will be a few frames where their jump is still inputted, mostly because there is an extremely small window when a player makes a jump where their reaction times and then the input lag will both delay the jump by a very small amount. Ledge forgiveness usually eases this problem, but, seemingly, this game has none or has very small ledge forgiveness.
My experience with precise jumps was, therefore, poor, since ledges where effectively smaller than what they would normally appear in most platformers. This is especially notable in sections where you are in a platform, and have to jump on a platform that is directly above yours. On many other games you'd move right, press jump, jump, and then move left onto the platform. Here you instantly fall if you try to do so, so you have to jump and somehow instantly move right and then left, which is extremely annoying.
I collected the deception, randomness and perception power ups and headed on the platforms to the left, but the "maze" there is also very infuriating. The blocks are complete RNG and are not skill based unless I'm missing something.
After getting past that section there was another room with an unclear objective, but after failing a few times I got pretty annoyed and closed the game.
Also, there is an enemy at the start that doesn't seem to appear anywhere else?
I don't know if I missed something, since this game does seem to hide quite a few secrets, but as is I noticed these flaws
another room with an unclear objective is it the image i uploaded?
and yes the enemy at the start shouldnt be thereits just a meme at this point i fortgot to remove him :(
the most concerning thing for me is the balance betwwen anoying and interest dopamine obession
if you could tell me the parts that made you feel adictted and the ones that made you feel to much stress id apreciated
thenks for the feedback
Yes, the room in the picture is the one I got stuck in.
I'd say the most satisfying part of the game was exploring the various passages and finding more hidden areas as you got more powerups, similiar to how a metroidvania operates
Made it to the red square! Fun game, hopefully I get a chance to try out the yellow and blue square (I just barely missed the platform for blue square RIP)
Glad you liked it.
I wasn't able to reach the yellow cube, but I did reach the red one and the early ending. Really cool game, and I enjoyed it very much.
Glad you liked it. If you unlock all 3 you discover a secret
I played 3 times and I did not find any secret, and that is because I am terrible at platformer games. I will try again. I also really like the cubes that are randomly moving and this makes it even more interesting during my jumps and trying to see if I can reach there, and that's how I was able to reach the red cube, and that felt good.
