'Round The World (SAGE 2021 Demo)

General Information

'Round The World is a multiple-genre game where you visit an amusement park lead by the Axolotl Central staff, the people behind the park on a floating island.
MiKe, the protagonist, visits the park as a way to hide himself from being discovered by the police after being framed as a criminal. In the park, he finds the Axolotl TV, which lets him stay if he can recover the Tickets from 30 visitors 'round the world under one condition: "don't let them be catched...".

A decent start so far, but I'd like to give two recommendations:

1) Put all the action keys on the same row. So for example instead of X for jump and S for dash, maybe Z is the default dash key. This might just be me, but having them on two separate vertical rows feels a bit cumbersome.

2) I'm not sure having the run button also function as the charge button for a dash attack that flings you forward when you release it is the best idea, especially in a game with more Mario-esque stage design.

Really it's too short to say much of anything for certain, but the gameplay isn't broken or anything, and I really like the music and atmosphere you have so far.

Thanks a lot for the comment! I'll definitely keeps this in mind for future development :)
