This was super fun to play! Some things I liked:
the music
the sound effects
my favourite levels were the more open ones (I found the last one a little cramped, but ofc still very fun)
the lore / mini story was rly good
one thing I found a little jarring was the music cutting out completely when pressing space, maybe just low pass filtering it could help it flow a little better?
I nearly found myself getting frustrated at times, but shortly afterwards I started to really enjoy it. I think the difficulty is a good challenge and learning the movement was rewarding. This is a great game!
