Interesting idea for a mechanic! It felt a little punishing as it was pretty much one wrong move and you were stuck. But I guess that just makes it more of a puzzle game with platformer mechanics in it!

I really like the growth mechanic and platforming, good work! Wish it was longer.
We talked about it in our video made for this jam, check it out!
You have created very innovative platforming mechanic that forces players to think fast but smart as every unintended jump or fall can make the level impossible to complete. Luckily the levels are short so it's not frustrating to start the levels from the beginning. I also like the concept about sugar levels :)
Very cute game with really fun music! The quickly decaying sugar energy really lit a fire under my butt! Exciting race against the clock in that way! Great game!
Short and sweet...
I'll see myself out.
On a more serious note, the character movement is a little stiff. Keeping a bit of momentum when you stop moving and sliding a bit up when you barely clip an edge would make it feel better.
I loved the concept for your game! The running out of food mechanic really made me feel someone on a sugar high.
