A fun cute little platformer. I rather enjoyed it and, though it could be more polished in some places like having a counter for each level to display how many shrines you've found, it is overall a very fun little experience. It is also admittedly short, but, considering it's a free game, I'd hardly call that an issue. Honestly, I kind of wish I could pay five dollars for a 'support the devs' DLC of some kind, even if it didn't come with any kind of actual content. Definitely recommend though!1 found this helpful

This was a very cute game! Foxes are my favorite, so this was especially fun to play for me. I found the realm switching to be an interesting and new concept, especially regarding switching realms mid platform jump! Certainly added a neat challenge. Great job! Only thing I wish it had was a "collection" aspect. It gave me "Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly" vibes, and collecting the gems keeps me scoping out the full map, though I suppose the altars also had me doing that in this game. Overall, a cute, quick play! Oh, also, the smiley face easter egg made me smile :)
I'm assuming this game is made in UE5, because it looks like a PS3 game, but runs like a N64 game I.E. not well. I'd recommend the devs remake the game in Unity or Godot, because while it does look good, there is no reason to use UE5 unless you want to make a hyper-realistic looking game, of which this is not. The video options for the most part don't appear to do anything except for shadows, and medium level of shadows is broken, resulting in flickering shadows. the camera is way too sensitive, and controllers don't work in the menus. what game is there under these problems looks good, albeit short. whatever the next game you guys make, ditch unreal engine for a more optimized engine. this game should be able to run on my phone.
A rare, SUPER RARE thumbs-down from me. Unplayable left-handed. Looks GORGEOUS, but unless I can sprout a thumb from my palm, allowing us to remap the keys would be a HUGE QoL update on this.
