This dropbox link should allow you to download the zip required to play the games testing build. It's under: WindowsNoEditor -> test101.exe

So I have finally downloaded and tested your game and have feedback:

• when walking up slopes and jumping off walls, the instant camera angle change is verry jarring (I assume this is part of the plugin you are using and can’t be easily fixed). Maybe this could be mitigated by making the ramps up to the walls larger?

• you could maybe make it more obvious that jumping resets gravity, as you could easily accidentally fall into the at the start without knowing

• It can get confusing in the tube section, with not knowing which way is up, and the black walls blending into each other (not sure if this is deliberate)

menu and options:

• possibly add a graphics option for v-sync? (There is screen tearing noticeable in tube)

• options button sometimes

• unreproducible bug with losing focus from the game, where looking around requires holding down left click

• the main menu's simple and text-less style can be intuitive but also confusing

• the main menu has a seemingly unused button

• the play button has a pause icon on it

• you game has controller support (not sure if this was done deliberately, as unreal does this by default), it is missing a pause button and menu navigation.

• chalkboard transition is jarring, and could easily be trigger while looking around, throwing you into the level without getting to look at the rest for the room. you could possibly add a button prompt here

• using black for the ramps makes it seem like black objects have gravity changing properties

level:

• the tube is not circular (it is taller than it is wide)

• there are some seams in the level:

• • above/behind black ramp at end
• • between wall behind level spawn point
• • between spawn platform and back wall of pit
• • left side of floor just before tube

• there is no death plane (a restart button would be nice)

• i like the skybox by the way, apart from its graphical glitches

• the level design also seems like it does a good job of teaching the player mechanics
