Great job! The motion feels really good. The difficulty is about right too.

One suggestion: right now when you die, it just drops to the Mini Micro prompt, and the user has to know to enter `reboot` (or refresh the page) to try again. It'd be nice if you handled that for us — even something simple like `wait 3; reboot` might do.

Overall though this is a really nice game. I can't believe it's your first Mini Micro project!

Thank you for playing, glad you liked it! Actually, there is restart handling, but I don't know why once I exported it, it would sometimes lead to the cmd thing (it only happened to me once). It was late, and I just submitted whatever I had, couldn't look into it. Once again, thank you for playing and for making such an amazing and fun-to-work-with tool!

Actually, nevermind, found the bug. Initially, my main script was called 'main.ms' but once I packaged it I renamed it to 'startup.ms' but my restart function still called `run "main"`.

Makes sense! A common pattern is to leave your main script as 'main.ms', but then to make it boot right into your game, add a new startup script that simply does `run "main"`.

But in any case, glad you got it figured out!
