i really enjoyed my time with what i discovered was... probably the internet's easiest air strafing game it took me a little while to get accustomed to not smashing the guy's face on the floor every respawn and really figure out how to air strafe to accelerate 0-60 and get maximum / minimum air time and brake effectively. and then it was smooth sailing from there some of the checkpoint sequences are a little too tight together so you spend some extended sequences repeating the same 3-5 bounces until you hit bounce 6 and checkpoint, or die instantly on 3-5 (1 and 2 are usually a set of bread and butter accelerators of which you develop a complicated repertoire) the dev was nice enough to include some really fun large areas to hone your reflexes on and let you experience the speeds you can achieve by chaining the airstrafes properly i think my number 1 feature id like to have was originally going to be an angle meter to stop me from smashing the bunny's face but i think id prefer some kind of cheaty golf bounce "estimate" of your next bounce or a instant drop ability or a coyote time bar because i missed a lot of cool flow state jumps by taking one too many acceleration bounces and careening off a ledge before converting my speed into speed+height or pure height but thats just waxing philosophical, real gamers have to adapt here, and once you adapt you realize its your issue for bouncing too many times approaching a ledge, same with how i got over smashing the bunny's face on the floor and some of the challenges have pretty claustrophobic starting sequences that locked me into making really specific jumps about ten hours of fun and it really brought me back to what i liked about other games like bennet foddy, learning a legitimately new fair control scheme and mastering it and seeing the limits of how it could preform this game has checkpoints on normal but it still tickled a lot of the same neurons for me
