Unfortunately, I couldn't play it because of the scaling issues... Soundtrack seems ok, though and the idea is good. Regarding the artwork, sometimes less is more, you know what I mean?.. But you seem to be aware of that fact (from what you've written on the game page), so kudos to you! Thanks for sharing!

Great game! A little bit too hard for me, I couldn't manage to pass level 2, but everything works really great! I only find a little frustrating the fact that sometimes if you're too near an edge the character doesn't jump, causing me to die very often. The art and sound are amazing, i loved especially those in main menu and credits page!
I really like the music and art style! The parallax backgrounds was a very nice touch and something I wish I had enough time to implement in our game.
I would propose thinking about how to make your hazards readable, the sawblades? bubbles? stuck to walls basically blended in to the background for me and I died at least once to each and every one because they didn't pop out enough - at least for my tastes.
Glad you liked it! That's a great point about the hazards. Unfortunately I have almost no ability with pixel art right now, so I wasn't prepared to take on any modifications, and it's so hard working with a bunch of mismatched free assets. It was a great learning experience though, so I'm excited for the next jam!
Music is bangin'. Definitely a rage game, but the platforming didn't feel too bad. I couldn't figure out what was killing me for the longest time, but then realized it was those bubbles on the wall. So sad when I get sent back several checkpoints for holding down run after dying. Very cool atmosphere+Art, and I enjoyed the level design as well!
pretty cool game
The fact this was published 3 days before the deadline is impressive!
The game is fun but can be very hard, i feel this was intended so it's okay
