I think the blob needs more animation to feel more squishy and... well, animated. For example, he could stretch wide a bit on landing or stretch vertically on jump/fall. You gave him eyes, so there was a good opportunity to add funny facial expressions (tears upon death, closed eyes on landing, smug face when finishing a level).

Art in general needs more cohesiveness. The platforms, the enemies and the background look like they don't quite belong together. Back when I started with game jams, I was always out of time so I understand the polish isn't easy to achieve. I'd recommend starting with a minimalistic color palette (black and white only, for example) to find your style there.

You may find my review quite critical but hey, you still made a game in a week, which isn't something most people would be capable of. You should be proud of yourself. Keep learning, keep making games and you'll undoubtedly become better!

Thank you for the detailed feedback! I will take it all in to consideration!

I liked the controls of being able to spam the space bar and the blob kind of fly around.  Something I noticed was that it took a while to switch over to the 2nd level so I almost though there was only one level, but after reading comments realized there were more so tried and again and was able to play 4 levels - nice job.

Thank you for commenting! Really appreciate it!

Short but fun. Too sad there's no sound, it could have been a nice touch.

Good job!

The concept and level designs were good.  Some audio would have been nice addition, but the game was fun to play anyway.

Developer

Thank you!
