I did notice that money drops every time you press a key, maybe it should only do so if pressing the key does something? Like right now pressing jump mid air spends money, despite not doing anything.
I think a way to make this more interesting would have been to spend money to "toggle" the directions? Like pressing left would push the object left, and you'd have to press again to stop going left. Also, it would allow interesting puzzle designs, where the player would need to anticipate which direction to toggle in advance to reach the end with as little actions as possible!
Yea when making the money system I did notice that pressing jump while already in the air would still take away money. Though I couldn't really think of a solution so I just decided to give the player a bit more money, since they also lose money if they just keep pressing movement keys!
That is an interesting idea, it might be tough for me to make but I'll think about it. I made the game with simple platformer in mind. If I do make a puzzle game in the future I'll keep this in mind!

a simple premise, but works well to fulfill it!

Anyways, good job on this fun little idea!
