Oddly I was unable to run the game again a second time, but when returning got a black screen with "uncaught exception: abort(101). Build with -s ASSERTIONS=1 for more info." message in the console. (got stuck in the first walljump part the first time and was not able to figure out what to do there)

From reading your description I imagined the game as totally unoriginal, but it turns out the camera has a very proactive role that is very fun! It's sad that is was so short, there is much more potential with that mechanic.
but now that i think about it this doesnt reeeeally fit the theme? the player can move two directions, and side scrollers that dont let you move backwards have always been a thing. your subversion comes from turning that into a mechanic rather than a hardware limitation. ill give it an in the middle for theme adherence
