Good challenge. Simple but fun gameplay and well implemented obstacles.

Cool game! It's a nice simple platformer that you have added a lot of interesting things to. Maybe in a post-jam version, you could implement the option to skip the intro just because it's a little bit long and on a second playthrough it would be nice to be able to get back to the gameplay faster.  Overall, nice submission :) 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!! I'll make sure to add one after the jam. :D

Just a comment, a restart level option in the pause menu would be nice.

Anyway, Congrats! :)

Really cool concept! the time make everything more challenging. Maybe it's just me the sfx from platforms changing it's a bit annoying (and sometimes the sounds still playing when the game over screen already showed). It was useful for tuning the changed, but it would be great to lower the sound. Overall it was really fun and little hard but still enjoyable game. Good job :D

Thanks for your feedback!! Yeah some sounds were left with high volume by accident (like the jetpack during the intro scene. It will be fixed in an update after the jam.

Also, thanks for pointing out the changing platforms' sound playing during the Game Over Screen. I'll look into that too. :)

I really enjoyed the artstyle and level design though sometimes the checkpoints didn't feel the best if you got hit by something knowing you don't have enough time to complete the level anymore.

Developer

Thanks for playing and for your feedback!!! Yeah, a lot of people had a similar experience... I'm working on something to improve the checkpoint system. Will update after the jam ends. :D

Thanks!!

I've already played yours. :)

I enjoyed that one. Using jetpack is always fun.

I didn't like the controls, X and Z keys are hard to access while pressing A and D to move horizontally. I would prefer W to jump and Shift of or Space for jetpack, while my right hand is already idle.

You are really talented in music making.

Developer

Thanks for playing!!! The game was made with the Arrow Keys in mind for movement, but I forgot to disable WASD hehe... I'm planning to add different input options in a future update tho. :)

Also, I didn't make the music lol. Tried learning how to during the jam, but I didn't have enough time, so I ended up using free music I found online. All the BGM is made by TeknoAXE. If you are interested, here's a link to their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/teknoaxe/featured

Thanks for the feedback!!
