Worked on a team for this one but we weren't able to finish it on time.

We have a bunch of sprites and more music to add, the boss fight is mostly setup but we weren't able to get the attacks in.

This is more of a work in progress but another version with sprites, music, splash screen will appear soon :D

Hi there. Interesting platformer. Lot of content there, good job on that!

pretty interesting. I like the character design, and that there are different weapons, also the music and sound effects are pretty good. however, the game is way too floaty that it was hard to platform, and also you can shoot and swing at the same time which is a little weird. And i can't tell how this connects to the 'connected worlds' theme.
otherwise i thought it was neat! nice job

The controls felt very slippery. Otherwise a pretty good game!

There seems to be a little too much momentum on the character when I try to jump between platforms. I keep sliding off. Overall great job!

Pretty cool, but I was able to skip nearly all of the enemies and pretty much cruise to the end, where I killed a huge skeleton from a distance and then not much happened. The game is well put together and robust, it's just the content isn't quite there. Great job making this in 72h!

A great jam effort. The controls were a bit floaty, but I was compelled to keep going in that way that Castlevania, Mega Man, et al used to make me feel back in the day. Exciting music. Nice work!

Could become a great castlevanian game, when you polish it up. Mechanics are nice, even the controls when running fell slightly slippery. Nice touch with the world change. It feels save to be in the other world. Good job.

I like music and graphics, but controls worked a bit strange for me. The movements lags sometimes, and it makes difficult to jump on small platforms.

I think I got to the end of what was completed (1st boss fight) but wasn't sure. I like revealing hearts with an ability - cool idea. The controls felt a little loose, and oddly chosen but I don't play too many platformers with the keyboard so maybe that's common.

I can't understand the special attack,you become invincible and can get lives and you can continue doing that without limits,doesn't that break the game(or maybe it was an uncompleated feature)?
