How does your game fit the theme?
You're Jack, he's a giant. Classic. He keeps throwing beanstalks in your garden that grow, waiting for him to climb down. Classic. It plays around with the verticality of the level, and he has tiny gnomes that attack your mums house. Classic.

Nice take on the scaling theme with the combination of the beanstalk folktale. Very... classic concept I haven't really seen in this jam. Very entertaining dialogues. What more can I say. Classic.

Fun game! I really like the dialogue, feels very British. 

For improvements, it'd be nice if the gold either didn't despawn or didn't get flung so far? It's basically impossible to pick up all the gold while killing the gnomes and chopping the beanstalks.

This concept is pretty original, I did not expected it. With more polish it could have been really fun. (I do love the dialogs). And also I think that pressing spacebar just kills you.

Ah, I think I might've left my debug code in for testing the death sequence, sorry about that! But thanks for checking it out!
