Soar is a platforming/adventure game where the main goal is to get out of a pit you’re stuck in. At the start of the game, the player will be faced with platforming challenges to get out of the pit. Luckily, the player is equipped with abilities that will help get passed the obstacles (i.e. dash). As the player gets more skilled with the abilities, the challenges will become more difficult and certain obstacles can only be completed with the help of certain abilities. Note that this is a prototype of the concept and you can reset back to the title at anytime by pressing [R].

The platforming challenges were nice. Definitely feels like HK inspired (not a bad thing!).

My only issue is that the thorns/spikes hitbox might be a bit too large. Decreasing the size might make for a more fair experience.

The dash is interesting because you're letting the player fall while dashing (whereas in games with dashing it usually "locks" the player's y velocity). Intentional or not, it was interesting to consider while moving through the world.

I like the character art as well. Good luck on your next game!
