This was pretty fun! I had some difficulty with throwing the bodies where I wanted them, but I eventually got okay at it.

Really interesting idea and well presented.

Cute little game! The mechanics match the theme but not the story does not explain why :p The death animation reminds me Seppuku. One thing I found difficult to do is to throw/drop at the position I wanted. I felt like I could not control it the way I wanted to and I could not see a preview of where my dead body will be. Good job overall.

This is really good! A very well executed idea!

The ability to use your dead bodies to get places is a very interesting one, and you executed it well! The throwing was a bit difficult to pull off, since you aren't really told its trajectory.

The Art style was nice and simple, and everything was clear and easy to understand. The bobbing of the walk animation is really cute too.

The dying animation might've been a bit much haha. 

Music would've helped with the atmosphere and really round out your game.

The platforming was a bit unpolished, as some jumps that should be easy were a lot harder to make. This made falling off at a later stage frustrating, since I had to attempt the clunky jumps again to reach the end of the stage. I would either make the jumps fairer or add checkpoints.

Other than that it's a really good game! Enjoyed playing it a lot!

What an interesting take on the theme! I loved how simple and cute the graphics were, and a really easy to understand mechanic too so was a lot of fun to play! The puzzles were clearly well thought out :)

What a morbidly cute puzzle-platformer this was. I really liked it! For me, there were a couple of nice "aha" moments in there, which is always a nice plus. The puzzles were never too difficult and each level were also nicely paced as well (never feeling too long). Great job!
