Very simple but effective concept! I do agree that the jump controls could be adjusted a bit especially in relation to the shrinking mechanic, but in general it was still fun figuring out how to beat certain rooms.

Nice game! A couple suggestions are to decrease the movement speed of the player and to add coyote time (being able to jump for a couple more frames after leaving the ground).

Very fun platformer! I really enjoyed the concept of having to shrink and unshrink the character in order to progress!
