I love the concept. My main complaint would be the controls like other people have said. Since the player is so fast, some coyote time would go a long way so that you can still jump for a brief period after leaving a platform.

The idea of the game is good, it has a lot of potential for something cool, but it was not well implemented, it has common mistakes from a beginner developer or short production time, but it is something that you will improve in the future, the controls work well, but the Movement is not well polished, making it very difficult to jump on platforms, and some jumps are almost impossible to get right. The way lava fills the map makes it impossible to complete the game if you're not extremely fast at the start.

Some things to help you improve the game or future projects:

Add coyote time (This will greatly improve jumping, and will allow for better precision and control of the character)

Adding double jump (this is something that, if used well, greatly enriches platform games, allowing you to create more elaborate platforms)

Because it is an hourglass, the lava can flow from the top to the bottom (this would differentiate the game from several others where the lava starts from the bottom to the top) the lava could flow through the corners of the hourglass and fill it.

The game is very fun and challenging, and the idea of ​​the volcano growing over time was genius. I had a little difficulty with the controls, it would be interesting to polish them later. Great game!

Really cool idea for a game and a fun way to implement the theme and the prerequisite. The music fits well and the volcano building up was a great touch and looked great. For me the controls were a bit tough to get a hang of and did not feel super responsive but overall a really great game. Good luck with the Jam :)

Cool game, I like that you integrated the time prerequisite into the game as an hourglass instead of just slapping a timer on there (which is what I did :D). Time just dripping down on you while you play really does make a difference! I did struggle with the controls though :)

Love the camera work and I really enjoyed how the dripping of the sand turned into a volcano. The player was hard to control especially on some of the small platforms.

Overall really unique idea on the theme requirements!

Hi! I’m amazed how this simple game is quite fun, very unique in how each theme uses it, how could you think of making a game like this!

I liked how unlike in many other entries, the timer isn’t just a label on the screen but is actually inside the level! My biggest complaint would be that the player character moves way too fast to the point of being really hard to control.

The music is amazing. I also like the way the camera zooms into the level at the beginning.
