Editor review
Flux Leap is a precision platformer in the Celeste lineage. Forty levels; speedrun-friendly with ghost trails.
What works is the input responsiveness. Jump button has zero input lag; wall-jump coyote-time is forgiving but precise.
Forty levels across four mountain themes. Each theme introduces one new mechanic and reuses it across the theme.
Tested with keyboard. The frame-perfect inputs benefit from physical buttons; touch is technically supported but loses precision.
Where the design earns its high rating is the speedrun support. Per-level ghost trails and optional frame-counter overlay let advanced players time inputs.
Where I would push back is the difficulty curve at the very end. Final levels jump significantly without clear escalation.
Four-and-a-half stars. Strong precision platformer.
