It took me a second to get the hang of the game, but once I understood, it was super fun! The visuals are super cute and I liked the color palette you used. I noticed I was jumping higher in some cases but i didnt realize the things had different weights until i read the comments; that makes it even cooler! I found it a little hard to see what i could jump on and what was background...and then i realized everything is basically a platform lol. maybe you could add a sound effect to indicate that you collected something for your backpack, as this would make it more clear that standing on the platform actually did anything. good job on the game, im definitely going back to play it again!

Thanks for playing!
I need to make it somehow transparent for the player that items have different weights. Maybe just simple text +3kg on pickup which slowly disappears, I will need to do a few iterations on that.
Yeah standing on the platform is not clear enough that something happened, I am thinking about moving to pick up to some different mechanics I have a few ideas now like moving it just to the interaction button or even some kind of mini-game (like picking them actually from the ground so you have run around to pick them up or catch them in the air)
I am thinking of finishing it to the full product, I will let you know!
