The art is fun and nice to look at, the gameplay itself is a bit complicated at first but after you figure this game out you will have fun gauranteed!

Great job!

Really liked it! I only struggled to find some mechanics that are not explicitly mentioned (like wall climbing) but otherwise quite enjoyable and cute!

Good game, I like the art-style and the concept. Could use a little polish and the tutorial being more explicit that pressing the number selects the ability you get after you throw your head, I was stuck on the first level a while because I was pressing 1 and I didn't understand why it wasn't doing the jump. But good job regardless!

Good level design, took me a while to understand that i had to press the power button before throwing the head, but once i got that i found it really fun! Hope you'll add some more levels after the jam! The idea of throwing your head is really cool lol

Cute game!  I love the background art and the meeples in the trees.  The different powerups for throwing your head made for some cool level design.  I couldn't get past the level after ghost mode was introduced though.  I had jump mode on, left my head on the plate to open the purple door, but would get pushed down when I tried to jump to the platform, like the collision box was still there.  

You have the foundation of a really cool game though!  I'd love to see it expanded after the jam :)

Cool game ! I think the concept is really interesting and the level design is good, plus the platforming part is well crafted, but I think there are way to many different keys to remember for the player. It makes it a bit more tedious than it could be. For example, is the press lever key really necessary ?  Instead of levers, you could use pressure plates that activate automatically. Instead of 3 keys to select the power, use one to switch to the next one. It would leave you with only two action keys (throw/pick head and  change power), which would have me a bit less confused at the start.

This is a really cute idea and a neat mechanic. With some more time and polish, I would play a full game like this. Just so you know, though, if you hit Z too many times in a row you completely break the head throwing mechanic.
