Hmm, this looks pretty cool but I hope the controls and character movements are good. It seems like it might be a bit floaty...

It's certainly not as floaty as Cave Story, which is objectively one of the greatest Metroidvanias ever made. Physics alone a great game does not make!

arguably the parkour platforming physics are important to a parkour platformer, though…

Oh come on, that one literally puts you on a floating island. Of course it's going to be floaty! Lol
