This has a very "Getting Over It" vibe that I love. "Ego" being the health was a nice touch, though I'm not sure a health system is the best choice for this type of game. It seems more like the game wants you to try again and again to get past the obstacles, a health system gets in the way of that. If you want a health system, I'd also include a tracker that shows how far you've gotten. Even just a counter for trophies. Then people can be like "I got 7 trophies!" "Yeah, well I got 11!"
Fun game!
