Comments on the jam
Even in a 1 month long gamejam I'll still run out of time. I'll work on it some more in the future. The monochromatic theme was really good at directing me to a specific style.

Pretty nice, I liked the overall visuals and it fit the theme pretty well. I ran into an instance though where I collected an upgrade and I left the room before I obtained it and it seemed to have soft locked me from progressing as I couldn't get it anymore.
This is a cool project! I reached the flow while playing.
The green monochrome style is ripping out my eyes.
I love how new abilities are gradually acquired.
Unobvious controls, I had to clarify on the game page.
The whip does not hit enemies through the blocks, but the animation reaches them.
Strange, but the fountain does not restore life, although the opposite is written.
And of course the sounds would increase the immersion
The game is really interesting and the difficulty factor is quite right in my opinion. I really enjoyed playng it. It took me some time to get used to the controls when it comes to attacking enemies because of the down arrow = forwards, but everything else is intuitive. I love the pixel art and the artstyle used, it is complex yet simple, understandable and just the right amount of pixels and colours to make it not overwhelming but pleasent to look at. Would love to see more of your games, maybe even a sequel to this one.

Very nice realization of the theme. I love your pixels. Fun play! Add sounds and give it the final polishing, please.
yes sir
Really cool game, loved the design and art style, gameplay is perfectly challenging and very entertaining. Only problem is that when you jump/press w when you respawn the game inverts gravity and you get stuck on the ceiling. Would love to play more of your games in the future.
This is a very pretty game! Love the pixel aesthetic! There's a couple issues, including one that made it so I couldn't get past a certain point:
Aside from that, the controls are very tight and responsive, the aesthetic is really pretty, and I particularly like the beetle enemies, I think you nailed the timing and speed of their attack!
Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you liked the beetle, as it was also my favourite enemy. The game is now playable, no you didn't miss any upgrade, the level design just made it impossible, sorry for that.
I have replayed it and got all the way to the end! I think this game has a lot of potential, should you choose to increase its scope. I only have three issues to note:
Other than these issues though, I really enjoyed this little game :)
