This is beautiful and has legs for a full game! I don't really vibe with the control scheme and find it unintuitive, but that's easily fixed. I would probably also open with the tutorial.

In the absence of remappable controls, probably lateral movement on A+D/left-right with an auto-dash or auto-jump up on W/up that steers with the lateral controls, and the other option of jump/dash on both Shift keys or Q so it can be played one-handed? Just thinking out loud though.
I think what got me is feeling like W should Go Up, but the most up-going is dashing and you want to be doing a lot of dashing. So it feels like you're presented with 3 options for Up, one of which you're never gonna use.
