The platformer would have been more fun if it was clear where to put the torches. It is easy to miss a jump if a torch is just a little bit off. This is very frustrating. Otherwise it works fine and both visuals and audio are great. Well done!

Real innovative use of candles for a platformer. I also really liked the increase in difficult, the collecting aspect of candles along the way and the music. Well done!

thanks for the feedback 🥺 I appreciate it

Took me a second to figure out that I needed more than one candle for that first jump. 
I felt like the idea of jumping over the candlestick was neat, like the old nursury rhyme. However, would have been cooler as a runner. For example, if 'Jack' was nimble and quick and each time he jumped over the candlestick he got a tiny bit faster.

Great job and keep it up!

What a nice little game :)

Really love the minimalistic approach with the art (fitting I'll say since we're in a dream !)
