hey thanks for playing anyway.  I think I got too in my mind about trying to "complete" a game I never polished it. My next game jam I'll try and focus on more player focused things, yeah.. a restart button would be a huge step forward, I see that now.

Thanks for the feedback! I don't quite know what you mean by the text being off center, it's supposed to be scrolling on the wall in the background; but maybe I should have just made a dedicated scene instead. Sound effects or causing a force upwards on the player would probably help a lot with the feel of the game! That might be the first thing I try and fix, I think I was a bit blind to that bit of feedback so I really appreciate bringing my attention to that. As for the platforms, I'll mess with it a bit, I haven't played too many platformers (one reason I wanted to do this jam) and another game made me think that making all of the platforms accessible from the bottom would be a huge improvement. Maybe I will just mess with the friction of them instead, I'll find that out with experimenting. Thanks again!

Not gonna lie, I have a hard time dissecting this comment, but thanks for the support. I'm gonna work on the interactions and menus especially. Hopefully I can realize the potential of this game! And maybe a "die" scene that shows the main character getting caught, not a bad idea
