Nice game, on level 2 right spike on the first screen doesn't kill you.

Thank you! I'll take a look at that. :)

Really nicely done! I love the built-in tutorial on the title screen. Keep up the good work!

Glad you liked it, thank you! :)

This was nice! I think explaining the controls in the demo part of the game, and not just the description, would help a lot. Otherwise it's nice and challenging!

Thank you! That's a good idea. There's the built-in tutorial where you can move around and interact with things in the title screen, but still... I'll make sure to add a short explanation. :)

This is fun, unique, easy to pick up, and... really challenging -in a good way! I don't think I've played any other GB Studio game like it.

I'm glad I checked it out!

Wow thank you! That's too kind. Trying to push the engine's limits (and my own) with this one. I'll try your new game asap as well, it looks gorgeous!
