kenopsia-n.  the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that’s usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet—a school hallway in the evening, an unlit office on a weekend, vacant fairgrounds—an emotional afterimage that makes it seem not just empty but hyper-empty, with a total population in the negative, who are so conspicuously absent they glow like neon signs.

-The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows


This is a precision platformer meant to elicit feelings of loneliness.

Please enjoy.


Special thanks to my playtesters.

(btw since this seems to have confused some people: use the arrow keys/enter in the menu if you don't have a gamepad)

Stuck

- Nice sfx and atmosphere
- My character got stuck on that platform, collision issue maybe
- Am using keyboard for control,I feel like sometime the jump button does not trigger while running (maybe only me)

Yeah, construct has some wonky collisions sometimes, I'll look into tweaking the hitboxes. As for the inputs getting eaten, I've noticed it as well, but I have no idea how to fix it. It is less of an issue on gamepad though.
