Love the concept of marking notifications before your phone dies. The music and art is great. It's amazing that you managed to make a game in only 2 hours 15 minutes! Amazing job!

I think the sound for picking up the notifications should be made way, way more quieter or faint, especially since the notif's tend to spawn on top of eachother, so when you pick up multiple of them you can actually hear your braincells dying from the stacked sound. The gameplay and objective are fairly simply, nothing much I can say about it, except maybe making it easier to climb the ladders somehow, because It tends to be easy to fall off of them.

Nice take on the theme! The game felt hectic which was enjoyable. Movement felt a little unfair at times, but I know you had a strict time limit. Nice work :)

I recommend making the character stop a little faster and increasing the width of the ladders to make movement a bit easier, and also making the UI aligned better at the end of the game. Overall I actually enjoyed playing it a lot.

It is a nice little platformer :)

The speed of the phone makes it hard to climb the ladders, so you need to move carefully.

FYI The game view is somewhat broken - you can't fully see platforms on the right but there is plenty of space on the left (at least in the browser version)
