How does the game fit the theme?
I took the theme as a challenge, or perhaps.. a threat?

Can't Lose is a minimalist puzzle platformer where the game really wants you to win, so the question is, how can you lose?

If you get stuck on a level the name is usually a bit of a clue, if you're still stuck you can always press esc to return to the menu and use the level select to skip

Also, just out of curiosity, leave a comment if you complete the last level, i'm a little worried its a bit tricky to work out

*** Thank you to everyone who's played so far, and thank you for all the feedback! I won't update the game during the Jam, but i am working on improving the feel of the game right now, and have a fair few new level ideas i would like to try out after the Jams finished***

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Music from https://www.fesliyanstudios.com/
sound effects from https://archive.org/

Incredible game, the surprises are really awesome, keptme laughing the whole playthrough. My one complaint is the character controller feels slippery. Other than that that's just so much fun!

This was actually fun! Got stuck on level 6. It is clever though!
