That was a very fun game and I especially loved the intro! There were a lot of unique levels and mechanics but I can definitely see this game getting a lot more with future updates! I'm also very grateful for the checkpoints, they helped a lot. One suggestion is that while the respawning screen was very cool and well done, I did wish there was a way to speed it up after seeing it a few times haha! Other than that, it was a perfect game, especially for a first game jam!

That's really cool, I guess I didn't realize it much at the time because I didn't die quickly in succession but after going through your game again I noticed the difference! I think it's well done but for me, I feel like on the harder sections if you're dying multiple times in a row, the death animation combined with the screen switch might slow players down a bit. Maybe if there was a toggle option that showed up after you died a few times that would allow you to speed it up a bit, just so you can still see the loading screen for the first few times, but are given the option to speed it up. But again, I'm probably the only one that feels this way, I've played a few platformers like Celeste and it was important to have fast respawn times in that type of game because you end up dying a lot, so I could just be more used to that style over the respawn screens.
