I really love the animated sprites in this game, even more so than the nice reward scene at the end. The environments are good, but could probably use a little more detail and smoother looking platform edges. I would also like to see a text font with a bit more whimsy to it to fit the tone of the game.
The controls feel very good, especially for a jam-made game. The game does start making some big demands of these precise controls fairly early on however. I would prefer if it focused less on the jumping and a bit more on the rope mechanics which I found to be very well implemented and fun to use. They're utilized very effectively in the boss fight, which is engaging, varied and has an excellent flow to the action. Would love to see more animations with the enemies involving the ropes if you have plans to continue development.
I like that there are alternative controls, but I also wish there was a way to set keys. I pressed "e" instead of "f" a few times and ended up having to find my way back to the platform with the note all over again.
The soundtrack is pleasant and fits the scenes well. More sounds for the various player actions could be a good addition.
An enjoyable platformer experience. Solidly built and the rope mechanic in particular feels like something that has a lot of potential. Would definitely play again if the game is expanded upon.
