Cool music! And nice interpretation of the theme :)

I wish I could spawn a bit further away from the spikes when resurrecting , though :D

Really nice concept! I didn't anything like that in the Jam!! The jump was a bit weird and didn't work all the time 😢

Cool game! 😁

Somewhat buggy and kinda difficult to move around, but the actual concept of dying and reviving is surprisingly interesting!

Nice concept! The Wall Jump is a bit broken though. But anyway, well done :)

Art looks cute but gameplay was somewhat messy

Have to agree with a lot of the comments here. The concept looks fun and the art looks cute, but the game is just a bit too buggy right now to really enjoy.

I really liked the idea of this game, it felt super fun that you had to die to pass the levels and get the coins and then get your actual body through the exit. Very original! Since the character is taller than some of the platforms, when I jumped I got stuck and lost the function to jump.

Really cool concept. Nice music music and the art is polished. However I ran into in a bug in the third level where I can no longer jump, I think it is because of the mechanic of wall jumping.

The best one of the jam I've played so far.

Thanks for playing our game :)

Interesting concept. I would say the camera is unnecessarily close. I also ran into a bug where the character could no longer jump. However, I think with a bit of polish, you could really take this concept further. Great job!

I like the concept and art. I got a little stuck if I die in the middle of spike.
