You awaken in the Somber Sepulchre, utterly alone and bereft of purpose. To find your Lost Resolve, you must venture deep within the Forlorn Dream. You will search the very depths of loneliness and sorrow, that you might once again find hope.

Lost Resolve is a fast-paced speedrunning platformer inspired by the likes of Sonic the Hedgehog, Pseudoregalia, and Celeste. It focuses on fluid movement and momentum, which can be used to blitz through stages at absurd speeds. It follows the journey of Soul through a mysterious world known as the Forlorn Dream, as she rediscovers her identity.

Well done! The movements feel really good, and I'm really starting to dig the atmosphere too.

I think the gameplay might also benefit greatly from making the gameplay elements more visually understandable (such as spikes that blend in too much with the ground, or the red/blue/orange blocks that can currently be confused easily).

Looking forward to seeing how the project develops forward. Keep making!

Thanks for playing, and I'm glad you enjoyed the movement and atmosphere! The visuals are something that will continue to be reworked as the project goes on, and I'll definitely spend some time making the interactive elements more visible. Appreciate the comment! :)

Cool! The controls are good but hard to time. Still fun though!

Thanks so much for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it :)
