Well done on making the game! If you plan to work on this or something similar in the future, I think you should include some reason not to keep holding the 2 button all the way to the end of the game, otherwise it gets very very easy to just rush through all the levels. :P

Fun and interesting that you can turn death off. Nice and fantastic platformer. If you would like to, my game is a platformer like yours if you want to play it https://retrorealms.itch.io/nokia-pirate
This is really fun and cute - I loved that the boss was a scaled-up version of Blobguy. I would have liked it if there had been transitions between the levels, because I wasn't always sure if I had reached the next level or died
Nice ideas but it needs some refining, like level transitions. I like the concept of turning death off, but that meant there was no reason to turn it on! It would have worked better if you had an recharging energy meter that only allowed you to turn death off for short bursts. The best part of the game was the boss. I liked flipping gravity to get to safety and the idea of a boss that gets increasingly faster as it's health goes down is a good one. Ducking was cute also, but the game's name is the best of all. Nice one lol
I'd say it should have some animations/visual feedback when you die or switch levels, because you just seem like you teleported somewhere. I think the boss was a bit too easy. The last scene and the text definitely wasn't 84x48. But overall the idea is directly fitting into the theme.
The camera needs to back up a bit from the player cause you can't really see much of what's going on. Other than that, it was fun to play. Like the idea
