It's a very interesting idea but it needs some polish. Being able to reduce lives without having to die and return to the start would help with not having to replay sections again and again. Some of the physics could also be improved, such as getting stuck on walls and, for me personally, the jump feels a little too floaty, especially with lower lives.

It has a really nice concept. However, coming back to the beginning once you realize is a little bit too unforgiving. I think it could have been improved with just taking damage and reducing the size instead of just spawning you back in the last checkpoint. Solid entry nonetheless!

One thing I noticed that can be fixed really easy is that you stick to walls when you walk into them. You can use a physics material in unity to address it. Overall, nice game and good job!

It's a cool little game and while it fits the theme, I would have liked to see some choice in the matter. As it is, you have to lose lives to progress, or at least it felt like it. Maybe you could choose an easier path that you had to die once to be able to get through, or a very difficult one that you can reach at full lives? If you added a checkpoint just before such a sequence, I think it would give the player a choice on how to proceed.

I liked that you included music at all, considering it's a jam game, but it's very loud and repetitive. I feel a  longer track would have improved the experience significantly.

Nice platformer.i like the music and theme nice game

Nice platformer. Visuals are perhaps too simple. Music is good. Well done.

So the game is pretty fun and I enjoyed the concept.  I don't like that you have to lose lives to get past certain points.  I feel like it should be more difficult with more lives but still possible.  Overall I liked the game.

Congrats on the game! At first I thought I was stuck but then I noticed the effect the increased power had. Some visual feedback can help if you wish to improve it!

It's a cool platformer and a fun game. My big problem was the physics. The movement and jumping didn't really feel smooth and you can just stick to a wall some times. Taking a look at that would be nice! Great job nonetheless!

Submitted

Great job! The walls were a bit sticky but I love how you used that to your advantage on the spinning platforms XD. Good job getting it finished.

Submitted

The game is fun to play I made it to the rotating blocks. Didn't like the music tho that's just me

Nice game, good use of the theme.

Submitted

Nice platformer! Small improvements to the movement could be nice such as sticking to walls or maybe an increasing jump height the longer you press. I loved the rotating platforms. Great Job!

(Btw use a Physics Material 2D on the player and set the friction to 0 to prevent the sticking to walls)

Submitted

Cute game! Really liked the rotating platforms, they're tricky but fun.

I'd love it if you could maybe check out my game as well (:

Submitted

I had a good laugh on the rotating platforms :D They are tricky to get a hand on but after a while it's possible to master them quite well and even land on them vertically (even though it's useless ... :P)

This is overall a cute little game, good job ! Obviously some improvements could be made on the music and graphics but the level design is well thought of. As already mentionned by others, the wall stickiness can be a bit fustrating at times.

Cheers and congrats ! Thanks for the fun

Music is starting to bother after some time

You surely need to improve graphics and add sfx

Player sticks to the walls all the time, which isn't making experience better
Also, if you died once, you almost guranteed to be unable to get through rotating platform again, at least the platform on the second level for sure.

There is a lot room for a little improvements in this game!

I could have made this game a lot better if i just added a bit more polish, but I did not really have that much time to work on the game. Thanks for the feedback though.

Submitted

This is a good platformer, I like how you gain power when you have less health. I like music, but in my opinion, your game does need some sound effects too. 

Submitted

I love platformers, and I love this game! I would suggest adding extra details like clouds, but besides that, good game!
