Thanks for the feedback. Initially he did run faster but it made his jumping arc to long and hard to control and I didn't have time to come back and try adjusting it again due to the timeline, it's definitely something I'd like to adjust in the future if I get a chance to build the game up more. Not sure what happened with the re-spawning though, never had it happen to me and I ran the game a few times in play-testing, hopefully it was a one off bug.
