Enjoyed this a lot! It's interesting that when you 'lose control' you might occasionally be able to save yourself by running into another pill. I do feel like some of those pills are quite awkwardly placed, i.e. can't be grabbed while running and jumping, instead you often have to stop moving and jump directly up? In any case, it's addictive and I got better at it the more I played. Great presentation all round - the sprite animation and music is top-notch!

Thank you for all of the compliments. Totally agree that the pills could and should be placed better. I actually fixed this after the jam. :)
I'm glad you appreciate also that being in the out of control state doesn't necessarily mean game over. I feel like I still may add something to give the player extremely limited control like you can press a direction but he may not go that way or if you press jump he might not do it. That way he's still not getting it but you have more chances to luck out.
Seriously though, thank you for the compliments on the sprite animation and music. :) It means a lot.
