Nice platformer, the art is pretty neat too. Good job!

A short but pretty cute game. Although it's a standard platformer, it's cool that you attached story meaning to the used keys. The art is pretty nice, and I liked the way you introduced each one of the keys. One small issue I had was with wall collisions- hitting a wall is unstable and has a chance to cause you to clip out of the map, so I had to reopen the game a few times. Despite that, I still liked it.

this game has some bugs and packaging issues. for one thing, it’s arm-only, which isn’t necessarily a problem, but restricts your audience. pyinstaller has an argument that allows creating a universal2 binary, that would allow this to run on intel macs. something that is more actually a problem is the lack of title.png in the root of your zip, which prevents the game from starting at all. i made a small all-black png with that name and it worked just fine! sort of. i pressed some keys at random trying to figure out how to move and this happened:

the man himself — and nothing else

i clipped into the wall, and fell through the world.

then i closed it, relaunched it, and upon completing the game and trying to restart, i see TypeError: main() missing 1 required positional argument: 'restart'. Looks like you’re calling something with one fewer argument than expected.

Thank you for your Feedback. This is my first Game Jam and I was a little bit stressed when I submitted the game and forgot to test the game one last time. I have fixed the missing image and added a more detailed description. I hope it is now at least playable :)
