It's a neat idea, but a bit more challenge to require more planning or strategy would have been nice.

I would have loved to have made more complex levels, but we ran out of time! So it became more of a mechanic showcase rather than the difficult strategic puzzler that I would want it to become.

Huh, many games implemented similar mechanics by limiting amounts of key presses, but you chose acceleration time. Honestly, I like your approach more! I got confused by UI saying "S" instead of 00.00, so here's a quick tip: 

String.Format("{0:0.00}", YOUR_FLOAT_VALUE);

It's a neat puzzle-platformer game here! The one thing I disliked about is the "completed level" sound ^^

I agree, it was a last minute rush addition

Why? Why do all nice puzzle games have so few levels? Please give me more!

This idea has a lot of potential. I think it would also be a cool mechanic in an metriodvania?

Thanks we wanted to do more levels, but we also wanted to show what mechanics we could put in.! So had to do a quick version rather than the bigger more strategic levels we had planned!

Good game! I managed to beat all the levels!  This game may have been pretty easy, but the core idea is good.   It would be interesting to see what you could do if this was completely fleshed out...

Thanks we wanted to do more levels, but we also wanted to show what mechanics we could put in. So it's more of a vertical slice, but glad you enjoyed it!

Really really good. I hate wall jumping in these sorts of games but this game did it well with sticky walls. Really imaginative, would love to see a fully fleshed out version.
