Dev notes (Olowynd):
My first Ludum Dare ! I got surprised with the time, so the second part is really fast, and we have gameplay mechanics that works but are not in the game or not exploited :v.
Also, I have upload a new version for fix lags and bugs, so I have added no content, just make this playable, I have let on Itch.io the old one published in time to show I'm not cheating by adding more content ahah. Enjoy !

Hey Diplodino, which version have you download ? Have you any error message displayed ?
(I couldn't test for Linux and MacOS/X, so unfortunately I'm only sure it's work for Windows. :/ )

Excellent platformer. The jump animation really gave weight to the jump and made moving abut the level genuinely fun. Got just on corners/walls a few times though which was a bit frustrating. Otherwise though a solid entry. Nice work :)

Great entry! I like the tension (dark graphic style and music) your game builds from the first second. The level design and the checkpoints are fair, so I always knew it was my fault, I died.
If I should give some advice, the controls could feel a little bit more directly. Movement is like walking and sliding on ice. On the other hand, the design of the levels uses that, so thats not a bad thing per se, just personal flavor.
Keep the good work up!

Weird,I got stuck where I couldn't make one jump in time no matter how hard I tried :/ (also, are checkpoints supposed to make the whole screen flash so much? For me it's pretty annoying)
Great work on the polish, all the particles and effects works really well!
The game feels really dynamic, and the colors and the music make the mood really intense.
Feels a bit buggy on some aspect though, but that's absolutely normal for a jam x)
Congratulations for this entry, it's really great for a first LD!
