A lonely, simple platformer that I hope folks find visually appealing. It's pretty short, but I like to think it highlights both the lonely and exciting parts of being alone. I also hope other people find the player death as amusing as I do :P.

Made in Unity Free and Blender by me. Sounds done in cfxr. Music created with atrk-bu.py :D.

Nice game. Runs smoothly but, no end?

There's an "end" that says "Teleporting home...", but then I respawn the player at the beginning of the level because I didn't have time for a proper ending cinematic and also because it seemed like it'd be fun to restart the level with dash.

Really sweet little platformer. Runs well and looks good!

Adding the dash and sinking platforms really helped.
The visual style was super cute.
Nice work!

Great game. I wish it were longer though.

Cool visual style, cute main character. Dashing was fun, and the bits where you move the view back are really cool. Very nice execution overall!

Not a bad game. I like the rectangular prism visual style. It's got some fun moments, and I like the dash ability. I just wish there was more game here.

Nice visual style, and a solid start on gameplay. Good job!

Cute platformer!

Shift-key is problematic, as it causes windows-popup

A pretty decent platformer but not much more than that

Really nice :)

Zooming out and in was nice idea.

The dash and the zoom in / zoom out are pretty clever ideas.

Charming visual style and simple but well-polished mechanics! Love the attention to detail on the sinking platforms and the dynamic camera framing. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Box-graphic style is amazing :) Your game is really amusing... but you forgot to respawn all floating platforms after "teleporting home" message :D

You should keep working on this ;)

Quite fun. The lava rising and going back down was also really cool.

Great platformer. Is there no real ending? This has a lot potential for a longer and more complex game.

Pretty great mechanic. The use of camera zoom was really well done too. And after I got teleported back to the start I just jump-dash over the left wall and fell forever. :D
