I liked the idea where you start to gain more visibility as you are adding more people on top of you. I wasn't sure what to do after I had three people and I kept on dying. I have played games where people are joined that way, but the idea of being able to see more of the level was original. Kudos for submitting the game. :)

Good job on completing the jam!

Cute and simple game. If you're going to work on this further, one thing I would suggest is to include indicators for where some of the hidden platforms are to help guide players through levels a bit.

Very cute! I really loved the sound effects and the new take on the two classic games of platformers and piggyback rides!

The web version doesn't work, which is a shame. This looks really cool and reminds me of one of my favorite parts of Super Mario Odyssey! Good job!

Pretty decent, would be nice to tell the player that getting NPCs gives them an extra double jump

Also, the game breaks if you pause, leave a level then enter a level again

Windows download worked, even if web version didn't. Fun little puzzle platformer. There was one issue I ran into a couple of times where a grey block wouldn't let me jump off of it (in levels 2 and 4), but it wasn't enough to make the game unfinishable.
