It's a fun game, a bit buggy, my main issue is the, I don't want to say "floaty" but the movement needs some weight you know? Overall good job!

The game it's fun, but unfortunally it's quite buggy. The main thing that bugged me was that If you land on top of a corpse sometimes you can't move and you have to restart the room :P

Also add some air friction, and make sure that the player can move while in the air (this too, i believe it's correlated to the air friction)

PS. You have pretty Cool Hat(s)!! :3

Lots of juices (particles, character "animation", lights. The music is good but too short so it's really repetitive (I have that issue also, gota learn to make bigger phrases). Also nice random hats, it makes death interresting, what hat will i have? Would a random color added even more variations, or maybe it would make the hats less prominant.

Anyway, good job :). Good game! Keep jaming !

Beat it! Very nice, the concept is easy to understand and it matches the jam topic perfectly :) Some additional thoughts:

- Game visuals are very pleasant! I love the glow behind the player, coin explosion effect and of course random hats! :D
- The main thing I would consider improving is player movement: maybe it could be a litter smoother (acceleration based, not going full speed in a moment you press a key), also when being in air releasing a directional key doesn't make any difference, but pressing an opposite one does - but only if you start jump when moving, if you start jump standing still, there is no mid-air control. This feels a little inconsistent to me to be honest.
- Another nice touch would be additional effects (particle/sound) for putting dead body on a platform and unblocking a coin (feedback to player, reward for doing something correctly)
- I love the concept from the last level, that was actually really clever!

Overall definitely a fun experience, great job! :)

The game is really good! but it would fit well if he was made to html5 so everyone could play it on the browser.

Developer

Really fun game!

Air control when jumping feels a bit off, other than that it's great!

Good job on the particles, transitions, visuals

Developer

Thanks I appreciate it alot!

Pretty neat game!

I loved the square's jumping animation.
Sadly, i wasn't been able to complete every single level, because i'm kinda bad at this. I'm sorry. :D
The basic idea is cool. Good job on that!

Developer

Thanks!
