Man, this is just unbelievably good. As someone who has been chipping away at a game for probably about a year now, and who has made about 1/10 the progress you have, your game is incredibly inspiring. I love hearing anything you have to say about game dev, programming tips, inspirations, your techniques and things you've learned along the way, etc. Great job, man. Seriously impressive.

Just a small note for the animated text plugin you're using: I would suggest lowering the size of the pop in on the typewriter. Reading the text is very distracting, especially if all the text in the game appears in that way. But great job! 2 years of work and it looks great!

Really, you only took 2 years while working full time job to create this beautiful game? Amazing. Huge props. Not gonna lie, if I was a kid, I would play this game instantly. It reminds me of old platforming classics such as Croc, Gex, Kao, Crash or Rayman but much more cozy and less wacky.

Fook yeah!! Awesome progress man 💪 I hope you tweak the lighting or post processing a bit to amp up the colors. Dunno if it's the black AO or so but there's this black/grey dull vibe on top of your colorful fun theme that makes it look a bit dirty. Best of luck! EDIT: I think you improved it in the last minute of the video? Spoke too soon 😆 Still I think the playful colors could pop some more somehow

I played the demo and loved it! I'm just hoping you don't get carried away and add more complexity to the game which is what happens to a lot of games. I value simplicity. I also really hate minigames like in Spyro 2 & 3 and Banjo Kazooie. Just give me a checklist of collectibles and let me explore till I find them all! I played Cavern of Dreams recently but when it got to Prismic Palace the icy level, it got too difficult for me. Also the Nightmare level was too hard for me. A game stops being relaxing and fun when the difficulty ramps up. Also keeping it simple opens the game up to kids who may struggle with harder games. And many adults just want a simple easy fun game to escape the real world once in a while. Anyway, looking forward to the next demo!
