Great game! Awesome art, nice music and concept. The level design is great too. An issue I had in the game were the jumps, sometimes the character wouldn't jump, and the walljumps are a bit wonky, maybe adding wallrunning would make it better? Wonderful job!

Yep. I am actually shocked at how someone who made this game played mine.

Great game. The way you used the limitation was very good and played very well. The art, music, sfx, and gameplay was all amazing. Wonderful Work!

I love how every jump costs coins,  the stages are tough and kept me playing for ages.

This is a stellar little puzzle platformer. No notes. Solid jam game.

Really cool concept and mechanics, I finished the game and enjoyed it, very fun to play!

These controls are awesome, I´ve never played with such smooth camera movements and general movements. The idea is amazing too(I made it on my 3rd try with exactly 0 coins remaining on the end screen). One of the best entrys for sure.

Extremely well made entry, especially for your second (and first) jam. :D Like many other have already said: The presentation through artsyle, music and intro is spot on for a jam game, and the implementation of the theme as well as the limitation is creative.
The controls felt great, but "coyote time" (the ability to jump even if you just left a platform)  would have made them even greater, and I would have loved some button to slide down walls faster. Maybe you can incorporate this in your next platformer ;)

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I actually thought of implementing coyote time when first writing the character controller, and then I kinda forgot about it. Yeah. Just like that. I'm that bad with maintaining a todo list. But I definitely want to work a little bit more on the game, and polish a few thing, so I'll add something like that.

Really fun, I made the mistake of being greedy and only using free doors LOL

Submitted(+2)

Really fun game! I loved the sound and art. The mechanics were also very clean and its not clunky which is awesome. Really fun concept too, Great Job!

The pixel art is great and the mechanics, well executed!

If there’s one point that I think could be improved upon, since it confused me until I checked the comments, it’s the fact that the game doesn’t explicitly tell you that paid doors lead to easier rooms. When I played through the game, I thought the two kinds of door just lead to different places.

Maybe adding a « Easy » sign above paid doors could have made this clearer.

Regardless of that, the platforming was very good and responsive, good job!

Developer

Thanks for your kind review!
We're considering working on the game after the rating period is over and that's clearly an improvement that will be added.

Awesome game! I really liked the pixel art and sounds design. I think I almost spend 200 gold failing that last level on normal difficultly XD. The wall climbing felt pretty responsive too. Great job!

Really cool game! I really think you nailed it!

Submitted(+2)

I can clearly see why this game is on the most popular category. The gameplay is goo, the art is good, the way you incorporate the limitation is also good. love it. Good Job!

Nica visuals and soundtrack, I really liked the mechanic and the gameplay but I suck at it 🤣, need to train more, Very good work!

Peuchere my goat. Perfect blend of satifying and frustrating, felt really nice to play. Love the art, music and whole vibe of the game.
