How does your game fit the theme?
You are in hell try to get to heaven.
To do that you have to END yourself.
If you END yourself it's a NEW BEGINNING of a level.
After all levels you are in heaven.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Besides the movement and Pause script, yes.

The platform mechanics are a little buggy sometimes (wall stiching) and I think I was hard locked in the level were you have to fire a bullet to the left side of the level which then travelled all the way back to the right and (closed?) a vertical green and a horizontal blue door.
Ok that was the negativ part, now for the positiv. I think this is a solid interpretation of the theme. I really like the graphics you implemented there, I think I saw some glow, but as I say "I think", if there was some, you nailed the amount of it! Great job!

the white LillyNice Game! Though it was quite short and most of these puzzles rather felt like tutorials imo. Another thing that I didn't like was that the camera shake had some inconsitencies, e.g. while jumping the camera shaked while jumping, but not on death nor while sooting, camera shake is usually used on things that are supposed to be more impactful / heavy. But still, this was a decent game!

A Hell of a DateLoved the theme. The level where I had to be faster than bullet was annoying. I thought I'd kill myself by closing the door xd

A man in ShadowsGreat idea - I hate platformers, so it's more fun to die ;) Nice entry!

Oh No, Zombies Again!Love the concept of ending self to solve puzzle (we had similar concept lol)! The comedy from the idea of killing yourself to get to heaven, and the hilarious sound effect really made me laugh.

Me, My Soul, and My Dead BodyOmg what a fun take on a platformer where the goal is to die, very clever! Loved the art and the homemade sound effects, overall a really solid game

Temporal ParadoxFits the theme perfectly. I love the idea so much! The movement feels nice and responsive. The art style is really unique and the music and sfx were great. I did have trouble beating level 4 because I wasn't running fast enough but I managed to finish the game. Great work, this was a ton of fun to play!

RenatusSometimes i would get stuck on small places against the wall or under the falling block but nothing game breaking.
the idea to unalive yourself to progress fits the theme pretty well, Art wise its prett solid pixel art style cause im a suck for pixel art game.
I reached the end but nothing happend so i assume i was in heaven :D.

LifePretty good game! Felt like some of the things should have killed me though like being crushedby a box or door way but overall a good game.

Joseph V Endings (Brackeys Game Jam)Spot on for the theme! Looks great! I got stuck between a couple of doors at one point, so might be good to have a reset level button for when you can't kill yourself :-)

New Beginningsnice way to implement the theme. the visuals were rather on point, and the controls were solid.
