Thank you for playing the game Joshua, and for the amazingly detailed feedback.
This game came off the back of a 3 hours game jam that ran in parallel with your jam. Because i didn't have much time i didn't manage to implement a visual representation of the three stats or a minimap showing the distance to the end (or animations).
And that annoying bug where sometimes you press the jump button and the character doesn't jump is because of the insane way i check whether the character can jump (vertical velocity == 0)
Anyway, i probably won't continue work on it anymore since i have other projects and not enough time. If anyone wants to pick up the idea they're free to do so (and the code is on github).
Thanks again!
