\nOne of the best entries this year.
\nA small bug report: the game screen is not fully visible on Firefox (it is slightly too low), on Chromium-based browsers works fine.

Concept was really great too! Unfortunately the jumping in the game was just too frustrating for me to continue very far into the game.
\nHaving UP be jump instead of having a jump button is just too awkward when trying to land jumps, especially with the fast movement and high gravity. I’m trying to use one finger to press up twice in timing while using another finger on the same hand to adjust my horizontal speed. High gravity and fast movement mean I’m trying to do all this in like half a second. Just have a jump button.
\nThe visual style and concept are so great, just a minor tweak to gravity and the addition of a jump button would have made this amazing in my opinion.

\nThe pixel art is good as is the sound effects. The CRT filter is brilliant.
\nIt played quite slowly on Firefox, but was fine in Chrome.
\nI found myself wanting to jump higher than the game would let me, I felt the bunny should be able to jump higher than the knight.
\nThe screen shake was good, as were the animations.
\nThe editor is great too, I love the way it adds texture and variety as you draw the level.
\nReally impressive. I’ll come back to this one and play it loads more.

\nA great concept and cool puzzles.
\nreally well made, a little hard on the controls at times, got stuck in a very early level sadly
\n","games":["Soul Jumper"]},{"at":316270494,"author":"John Edvard","login":"johnedvard","gh":656024,"url":"https://reitgames.com","twitter":"ReitGames","text":"This game is polished. The menu is fresh, not a boring menu at all (like my game.) The puzzles are increasing in difficulty and the theme is spot on. I love the art style.
\nThe characters have fun animations, but it makes it a little bit more difficult to time your jumps. The controls are good, but sometimes I feel like I’m able to jump on platforms that are not in reach. I feel like “x” is more suitable for triggering the switch than “arrow down”. Especially on the level with the beams and switches, I feel it would be easier to hit the switch by pressing “x”. I’m more used to pressing “up arrow” to go into doors (maybe because of playing too many Mario games?), so maybe it could be possible to support both up and down, and then jump with “space”?
\nI wasn’t aware that the bunny could double jump, but it took me a few tries to understand it. At first I thought I could self destroy the knight, and the bunny should jump on the knight. But was only my own wrong assumption.
\nI deducted 1 star from Audio (because I would love some background music too), and deducted 1 star from controls. Almost a perfect score for this wonderful game! I haven’t tested the level Editor yet, but it’s impressive you were able to integrate that one too!

\nI just want to say it took me a while to notice the control explanations in game, and to discover that the bunny could double-jump. I wish there was a more obvious way to bring forth these 2 pieces of information.

I have “search as you type” enabled in my browser, so every time I press a key it brings up the search. You should call .preventDefault() for all keyboard events to prevent this. Also, the graphics were bigger than my screen, so I had to scroll the whole time.
Great game !
\nVisually the game looks stunning for a gamejam, you can feel an identity coming from the game, the old-school retro look is really well done and the sound design compliments that.
\nThe theme is well-respected, as it brings a twist to the puzzle-platform genre and adds depth to the gameplay.
\nThe different characters and levels make the game diversified and fun.
\nThe game could use a bit more polish or UX/UI visuals, but that’s nitpicking, this a very impressive game.

The CRT effect graphics are fantastic too. I love the different puzzles and level types that the idea allows for.
\nOnly minor issue was that the aspect ratio meant I had a vertical scrollbar, which made it a bit awkward to play (although just zooming out solved this).

The color palatte also compliments very well.\nAlso this comes with a level editor makes me wonder if this is aiming to be a release.\nLooking forward to a full version.

I was a big fan of the pixel graphics with the fish eye effect on the overall canvas. Such a small effect but really spoke a-lot in terms of the achieved end feel. It would have been great if the control explanations were worked into the introduction or game play. Otherwise - wonderful!

Really original puzzle, with adorable graphics. I like the quick movements and the animations. Great use of the death theme.\nI wish I could reduce the graphics quality a bit, as the game and the controls lag quite a bit.

\nOne thing that bothers me with keyboard controlled platformer games is when jump is on the “up” key. I much prefer when the jump key is in another location, space for instance.
