Nice job on your entry.  I enjoyed the art and thought you did some pretty cool stuff with the platforming mechanics.  Also Had a nice number of rooms as well.  If I could offer a couple of areas for improvement for game-feel I would say implementing a few effects or animations on stage reset and stage exit would add a lot of cohesion to the game.  When you touch the exit door and just immediately pop to the next level it can feel a little bit jarring and same when you touch the wall and jump right back to the beginning of the level.  Also it was slightly annoying when you died on certain levels and the rising platforms didn't reset and you just had to sit there and wait for them to come back down.  Small annoyance though nothing too bad.  Perhaps reload the level upon death instead of just moving the player back to the start.  Either way it was a solid entry and I definitely enjoyed my time with it.

Cool concept at first glance, but would have liked to see you explore unconventional platform shapes a little more, like the lava droplets coming down from the ceiling.

Funny idea! If you were to improve something, I'd say focus on better platformer physics. Still nice game

My favorite part of this game is the sound effect that plays when the lava elevators lift out of the lava- it fits in nicely with the background track and feel really cohesive. The platforming is nothing crazy, but the levels are fun and overall I enjoyed it. Nice work!

Pretty good concept, but the levels are a little too easy for my liking.

I love the vibe of this game, the art and sounds great. Also really good level design. Though I wish the level reset when you die so you don’t have to wait for the things to come down.

Floors are for losers! Lava, lava, lava, forever.

Love the character and the concept. Levels were a little easy but for 48 hours, you did great. Nice job!

level design is really cool!

Great game, but I'd have liked the levels to be more difficult. Check out mine as well!

Was sold on this game from the title alone, and was happy to find a simple but satisfying platformer.

Absolutely love the little protagonist guy btw
