Thanks for playing my game. I'm a terrible artist, so using basic shapes was about the best I could do haha. Thanks for the compliment on the player controller. Improving platformer movement by learning and implementing state machines was my goal for this jam. Before this it was the very basics before this. And the bosses wouldn't have existed with me knowing how to use state machines as well. The little hop at the apex was a bug that I liked and felt like it was a reward for a "perfect" jump, but from the feedback I've received, I think the majority of players weren't fans and I can agree with their points about it. The jazz music was somewhat random. I woke up one morning during the project thinking about what music would fit and I just started humming out some made up on the spot and transitioned into some jazz. It felt right, so I had to look up some available jazz. The hardest part was finding jazz that was free to use and felt like it meshed well with the game.
Thanks again for the feedback and playing!
