the menu sfx are pretty cool, its definitely an engaging game and the tilt effect is pretty cool, the core gameplay is definitely there however the art does come across slightly plain? the music is a bit generic and loud too, it might be fine for the audience youre aiming for, but i would also consider adding some more detail to the environment, even just a background, maybe some kinda story / intro cutscene giving context: even a basic glowing man running on a line in space can be used to tell a story if you just sketch down a few comic panels and try to fit your characters into some kinda story. Also, just bear in mind that your game could be perceived as slightly annoying because of the plainnes of the art style, and the music, although it sounds quite emotional, might be better replaced with a different mood of music i.e. strange space music, as it looks a bit thrown together and slightly corporate. The shop is a good idea actually, wouldnt recommend in-game ads as it wont earn you a lot of respect maybe not great for getting ratings but i am impressed you were able to code an ingame shop! There's a lot of potential to use an ingame shop to break up the pacing of your game, definitely worth putting effort into designing your shop to tell more story about the setting maybe change the names of the character colors and dont use so many colors? (fire, water, earth, pretty basic but it makes people want them more if there arent an overwhelming number of similar things) Anyway, good luck with your game, i dont think it really fits the Adventure Jam without a more detailed story but it has potential
