I've noticed that there are a couple of game jams this time around with the "you can only use one movement option once per level", and I enjoyed how this one was executed. The narrator was incredibly helpful in guiding the player to what they should do or explaining the mechanics, and it was easy to pick yourself up and try again if you messed up- I didn't ever get frustrated trying to complete a level. The story is also very funny, and quite relatable to probably many other developers here!
The pixelated environment and character aesthetic was nice on the eyes, and the music got me pumped.

I've intended to use the assets as placeholders to develop the game... but since is my first game, I've had no idea it would take that much time to do that. So these are the assets that I used, or got inspiration from.
