This is definitely an improvement over the last quest, difference is night and day actually. For one, the platforming is significantly better, especially with the instant screen transitions and things being clearer to see where you can and can't jump on to. Some of the areas were fairly cool and the mix between sidescrolling and top down was interesting to say the least. I do like the utilisation of 2.55 features and the roc's feather upgrades were cool. With that said though, there's still plenty of room for improvement. For example, the sidescrolling and top down mix is cool but I think they are way too seamless that it just feels weird and unnatural when you switch from one screen to another. I think separating the two would've made much more sense rather than putting them together. I also feel the ending segment ramped up like crazy so I couldn't even finish the quest because of the Gleeok spam, but I feel that was close enough to the end. I don't think there was any reason for that to be there so I was a little soured by that.

Ultimately, this is definitely better than your other two quests before this, quite a bit of improvement here but still much more to go. I'm giving this a 2.5/5, it doesn't feel right for me to round it up to 3, so I'm rounding it down to a 2 but it was very close.
