I cant take any credit for the art (except the sky), thats all kenney.nl, he has really great art assets for free.
It was a conscious decision to not have control over the jump because too much control over the jump feels unnatural, I think some control would be nice. What I did for this jam was to add dive (it kind of looks like double jump) so that is one thing the player can control.
Yes currently the levels being a few seconds feel risky at all, if the levels were a few minutes, then the risk would be higher.
Thanks for playing and the feedback!
