Cute little platformer! Loved the adherence to the theme. I struggled a bit determining what was a platform and what was background aesthetics, but I beat it just fine.

LD website version didn't load for me but for anyone reading this---Itch link works just fine.

Cool game! It took me a while to figure out what platforms I could jump on or not, I eventually realized there were lights over them, but they did feel too subtle at times. I found the sound effect from the hand was especially loud compared to the jump, you may want to consider audio balancing in future games.

Overall an enjoyable platformer with a cute premise!

I found the hand jumps out so quick that you end up kind of just giving up on trying to dodge it, and the jumping felt a little strange. But I loved the look of it, the mood and the concept of being a fairy dodging an insect collector was just so cool

Nice take on the theme - this is really tiny creature! I like the graphics but they were really dark to see, plus also it was difficult to know where the platforms were - if they would have been highlighted more it would have been easier to follow (or maybe this was the challenge?). The helping angels to take you to places is a great idea, i wonder how it could be put better in a full game - like you need to summon or better show places where they appear etc.

Visuals are neat, and hand sound is quite scary for me, overall nice small concept!

Very nice entry with good graphics. I do wonder the the book 'Really boring shit' is about.

Nice take on the theme! I have a craving for Grimm fairytale style games now.

I managed to dodge the hand a few times, but it seems to go invisible and grab me as I try to go past it again. Other than that I found a few tiny ~~bugs~~ creatures:
- I have a widescreen monitor so it messed up the graphics a bit, but that was easily fixed by resizing my window.
- You can fall off the left side of the map in at least one place
- The hand catching sound was a little loud, it enhanced the hand's jumpscare power by a lot though :P

Nice little entry, the art was really good and one of the books make me laugh. I would have liked to know what was a platform more other than the barely visible blocks that were there. Other than that it was fun to play. Just keep that arm away from me.

Pixel art are awesome! Some times hand moves like no needed to dodge it, just run forward, its strange

What a creative interpretation of the theme!

I'd only wish it would be a little longer...

I absolutely adore the art! The jumpscares are real :rofl: Are they randomized or put on certain spots in the game? Soon as it comes in view I am already too late- Eep. The theme to add a lill fairy is very cute, and a big contrast with the atmosphere of the game. Mood was very well done.

Amazing game! Gives me Arrietty of Studio Ghibli vibes. Good job in just 2 days of solo game dev.
