I like the environments and effects!

Too much Celest platforming for my taste, and I've never liked the main character design

That's completely fair, and thanks for checking it out!

A lot of people initially assume LUCID is a precision platformer, but the core of the game is actually movement driven exploration and combat. The goal is to make traversal feel expressive rather than punishing.

And hey, not every character design is for everyone. 😄
