What do you think?

Pretty Interesting.

Good luck on this project dude

hi

Bought the game with the spare money in my GJ wallet, and it's pretty fun! Haven't beaten it yet though lol

really fun little game, 100%able in about 5 hours, although the hitboxes tend to be very unforgiving, the controls feel pretty tight and getting perfect/high scores is pretty enjoyable (except for the extra boss, the rng gets pretty frustrating there at the end of a demanding level)

there does seem to be an issue with getting a++ on 3-3 and doing hardcore on 3-4, on the former, it seems the score requirement is way too high to realistically achieve (1200 appears to be what it is, though you'd need to perfect the level inhumanly quick to get that much), and on the latter, the mark doesn't appear after completing it

other than that, 4/5, would like for some hitboxes to be a bit more forgiving (or for their sprites to cover it a bit better), but not many issues apart from that

Nicely done good luck bro

Here's an old beta of the game showcasing some old graphics and the now scrapped Stocking, acting like the boot from Super Mario Bros. 3. It was scrapped from the game because of its stark resemblance but it was fun to make!
