The game is fun, but on resolutions below 1080x1920 the main menu seems to not have any buttons on it (of screen which also seems to be the problem Vetticon had).

The physics are a bit janky, not allowing you to jump sometimes, getting stuck to walls and launching into the air when approaching a corner quickly.
The art looks good in most places.

Music is bouncy and fun with a nice retro feel.

Thanks! Maybe is because of that, I'll try to fix that after the jam

would be nice if you could check out my game, if you havent already.

I liked the music and I liked how fast the character was.
- I would add a button that quits out of the game, just pressing escape to do exit would work.  
- The character is fast but the accelerating feels a bit slow, that might be my computer though
- You can add a frictionless physics material to the colliders to make the player not get stuck on the block
- Since the platforms are small, make a shadow or something underneath the player that shows if they are above a platform.

I wanted to add the quit button but I didn't have time, I didn't know that if I add a frictionless physic material it wouldn't stuck, I thought it would slide on the platforms. Thanks  for the suggestions!

Developer

Ah ok, I didn't understand

Interesting, the controls are a bit clunky at times, but the music and visuals save the day :D

Developer

Thanks! I appreciate it

Cool little game! I love the platforming aspects, although I did get stuck quite a few times on some of the platforms! The graphics and audio are great! I couldn't make it past one of the levels because I kept getting stuck on a ledge, but with some minor improvements this game has potential! Well done!

Developer

Thanks!

I had no idea what to do, the little plant guy just kept dancing on my screen while the music looped no matter what key i pressed, graphics are very lovely though and the music is also very nice

Developer

You need to use a and d to move and he spacebar to jump, I thought they were normal keys

doesnt work for me for some reason, stuck on title screen when ive tried quite literally every single button on my keyboard

Developer

It appears to work for everyone, idk
