How does the game fit the theme?
It is a precision platformer but nothing can go wrong. No fail states, holes full of spikes, or screens to restart. Just a ball you need to get from left to right. Instead of going wrong, go right.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code is my own. The following asset packs were used:

I enjoyed the game! I think it’s a fun and simple concept. It was a lot of fun playing around with the ball physics but since it sometimes clipped through walls or behaved unexpectedly it was quite difficult. Good job though!
It was fun playing around with the ball, though it sometimes clipped between the player and the ground.
Also, as some people have pointed out, the parallax isn't quite right.
I love the wall jump mechanics! I was looking for something exactly like this for my platformer :) will definitely try to copy that ;P
Nice Game, After a bit I figured out that you can wall jump. Would've been nice if the Textbox mentioned that. Other than that nice and solid entry :)
I never got past the first level, but it was fun playing soccer! I also liked the graphics and audio. The game is well made.
It was super fun trying to get the ball to the goal!
As the other comments said, the parallax is a little fast, but other than that, is a simple beautiful game! Good job!
Nice game
Good luck
Nice game and level design with a simple but yet challenging goal, it was a proud moment to reach to finish line v.v
I also felt something off with the parallax speed but it was trippy, so I enjoyed it :D
Nice game.
Some tips,
The parallax background is weird, you need to make it slower than the player movement. The rule is more close to the camera is faster than the other layers.
The game is a little difficult. Another tip is to use a random sound stream player or make different sounds for the same action, so is not repetitive .
Good Luck.
