made it past the run killer
obviously you didn’t finish, but let’s talk about what’s here:
the theme is pretty much missing, firesale, campfire, kind of out of context is quiiiiite the stretch
the vvvvv stuff is pretty solid and well done… gravity feels fast but not unfairly so.
the sprites are AWESOME - seriously just look at them, the tileset matches it well. the color palette is excellent
some hitboxes (specially spikes on the side) seem unfair, I’d suggest making hitboxes slightly SMALLER than the visuals when that would favor the player
overall you have a pretty solid foundation of a game here, don’t be discouraged for not figuring out that trigger, I’m sure you learned a lot and hope you are not too hard on yourself : ).
