Nice and extremely annoying mechanics! :D I really laughed so hard when I needed to make this perfect jump series to get higher. Nice game focused on one mechanics with pleasant visuals and music.

I love the presentation! The music, visuals and animation are all really cohesive and fun. I like the mechanic where you get a jump reset on touching a wall. It feels pretty nice and feels good to get better at! It adds a surprising amount of depth for a one button game! I like that it's on a timer too! It gives it a lot of replay value and makes it feel really nice to get better at it. There are a few stretches where it feels pretty punishing to miss jumps. You need to wait a while to get back around to reattempting the jump, which is especially tough when you're starting out.

ArchiTekTonthank you so much for the feedback and for taking the time to play and review the game!
Because there were several people telling me that the game is a bit too punishing (when missing jumps) I decided to re-do the level and make it more accessible, while still keeping it hard for people that need a challenge.
Will post an updated level probably at the end of the week. Thanks again for the imput!
pretty unique love how as you move up the camera follows which is cool

Silly Escape your House Game :3Loved it, intensely frustrating in a way that made me want to keep playing. I was also sad that there werent more levels but the game felt very polished

Cocaine Soda Addictcool entry!! there's lots of polish in this one which is nice: the art all flows together really nicely, the player/barrell/fire animations are clean, and the background music is a bop. i got stuck pretty early unfortunately so didnt make it very far but what i did play i enjoyed. you did a great job at adding gameplay depth despite having a simple bas mechanic with wall jumping and other shennagins which was cool too. one improvement might be to add a little bit of lore/backstory to the dragon to give the player motivation to help the dragon win. overall this style of game isn't really for me so i don't have to much valuable criticism but i enjoyed what i played and this was a solid game!

Mushroom Kingdom Adventurethe barrels do seem a bit out of place, but i see you did what you had to do to fit with the idea generated, and although the controls take some getting used to with the jump being an exactly 45 degree angle making it much different from other platformers, i really enjoyed it. the character went fast and and it felt frantic but not too out of my hands to give up entirely, and then the inclusion of the timer is just the cherry on top to making this game feel fun. the wall jumps are a bit tough to figure out, maybe having the player slide down walls if they aren't touching the floor already could make them easier as well as allowing for more interesting platforming in the potential future. great game!

goblin knightit's a bit of both honestly, although there isn't much of a narrative other than being generally castle themed (which barrels make sense for), so i guess i just mean the pixel art. everything else uses a very vibrant color palette so it feels a bit out of place when the barrels are very low saturation as they are.
Nice game ! Despite having only one touch, you successfully made a game with some depth of gameplay ! :D
A bit hard to understand the interaction with some walls (i was spamming at some point)
I am just sad that it has only one level !
