Thanks for the feedback! I was a bit pressed for time and I'm not the greatest artist but there's definitely room for improvement. I do agree that some of the UI feels a bit overly intrusive relative to how much it's actually doing on screen. I intended for the platforming bit to be a more minor part of the game, so that might be why it feels a bit more unpolished. Also checked out your submission and was really impressed! The art flows wonderfully and the sound design is fantastic :)
