Finished... at 93% of items! No idea what I'm still missing, I can't seem to find any unexplored spots on the map. Overall, great. I had a good, albeit frustrating, time exploring before finding the map (I didn't go into that menu until I had pretty much everything and was looking for where the coins go, but boy did it save me then). A few notes:
While the "you attack and dash backwards" thing was unique, it more often than not just meant it was inconvenient to attack and especially dash, as you need to jump, turn around, then up+jump. The dash was not used nearly often enough before the double jump completely replaced it. It would be nice to have some more platforming sections where, instead of being hindered by enemies, the challenge was the actual platforming. Maybe a room with some double-jump-dashes needed to get across a major gap.
EDIT: I see the reverse thing was for the jam. Maybe remove it if you expand on the game, but now it makes sense!
When falling instead of jumping (when hit, walking off a ledge, etc.) the second jump couldn't be used for recovery.
No need to switch between abilities when one is tied to jump and the other to attack. You could easily enable both at once.
There should be a button to directly open the map, maybe shift instead of having ability switching.
I think it would be a bit more rewarding to seek out the coins, then bring them to their altars, instead of starting with them for ... reasons.
These are all minor inconveniences in the big picture, but would be nice to have. I think this was a fun, cute game and I hope others get to enjoy it!
