I was browsing the submissions and found your's intriguing. Saw the playthrough, really liked it. My PC is not with me so can't play it :(
I was reading about the project and noticed you were using parisstacy's level design kit. Was this made available ? I saw on the page that the kit would be made available someday but no updates after that.
I too would like to use the kit :) Was this shared on the LD discord server ? Or shared by email/message ?
Thanks so much for playing! I'll check out the full video when I have time. Sorry about the giant hole in the level and any issues with the mantle controls you may have experienced. 0.2.2 was quite bad for issues :/
To answer your questions in the conclusion section:
Yes there are two exits, if it were a full game each would lead to a different starting point on the next level. I will make that clearer for the playtest with some additional text at the end.
I haven't had a chance to watch the full playthrough yet (I absolutely will), but if you didn't exploit the engine (force yourself through a wall or something) then you didn't cheat. I wanted it to be non linear. Sometimes there are sections with very easy bypasses, and I learned while making the level that it's ok if there are easy bypasses for more difficult challenges, because the player usually enjoys the solving/feeling clever part moreso than engaging with the intended challenge.
Thanks again for your time! I'll check out your submission and give a playtest video back. (I believe you said you participated)
Hey I just finished watching your playthrough. It was pretty joyful seeing you engage with the level and enjoy it. You were golden path adjacent most of the time. You definitely took some alternate solutions but nothing that wasn't intended to be an option. Thanks so much for your playtest. I will prioritize checking out your level and giving a video playtest as soon as I get a chance.

Paris said that if anyone wants it to share it with them, so here you go! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FPM32sq4IxuYqoCyb4f6ldBqzo0BS5lY/view
Thank you!!!
Very cool stuff! If you want to skip my long playthrough, there's also a conclusion at the end.

I hadn't even noticed a giant hole anywhere so you're good lol! The mantle controls felt snappy enough even in 0.2.2, it wasn't frustrating.

My submission is pretty small and I had to quickly wrap up the end of it, but I'd appreciate it nonetheless!
