How does your game fit the theme?
The role of the pause menu is traditionally to stop the game so you can go get a snack. I reversed the role of the pause menu so that you must use it in a creative way to reach the goal!

Did your team create the vast majority of the art during the 48 hours?

No

We used pre-existing art

Did your team create the vast majority of the music during the 48 hours?

Yes

We created the vast majority of the music during the game jam

The game has well structured basic mechanics and very polished level design. To cooperate with UIs while jumping platforms can be really exciting and challenging (since I am stuck at level 10 haha).  The quality of the game, in my perspective, is at publishing level. Looking forward to the future development of this game!
