Really interesting concept, the shop and upgrades are quite nice. I didn't really figure out how the double jump works, if it was meant as double jump. Otherwise gameplay feels nice, the mechanics are well made. Good job.

Thanks! It's the first part of the triple jump. Jumping once is the normal jump. Jumping again right after when landing on the ground again will make you jump a bit higher. And then jumping a third time in a row will make you jump the highest. Both of those higher jumps are an upgrade. I definitely see that the second jump ability can be mistaken for a double jump. Will look into on how to make that more clear ^-^
Oooh that makes much more sense. I noticed that some of the jumps I made were a bit higher, I didn't think of this tho :D One small thing that happened to me during my second play is that I got stuck in respawn-death loop when my last position was at the very edge so I couldn't do anything but continue falling. Luckily I was just started but just wanted to mention it.
Your respawn already remembers the last location when it was on ground, guessing you use classic isGrounded bool (for jumping etc.), so you could use three bools when respawning slightly spaced apart and check if at least two are grounded, if not move character to the closests grounded position. That could ensure that the player is always on the platform when respawned, tho I guess it could cause some problems when standing on single space platform. Just an idea. Tho what happened to me might have just been unlucky because the respawned worked great every other time.
The respawning isn't how I wish it was at the moment. It works most of the time but things like that do happen at the moment. I think I don't have to explain anyone that that's something I haven't had enough time for in a game jam :'D But yeah, I'll do a check if you're too close to an edge and also if there's an enemy nearby so you won't spawn inside one lol
Oh absolutely, many of systems in my game are not how I wished for them to be either. Even the way they are written is quite frankly awful and it's just a jumble of code. So I fully undestand not having time to make it perfect and how you wanted it to be. :D I just wanted to point it out in case it was an uncommon occurence. But your game is really enjoyable and i nthe couple of runs I played, everything worked just fine so for 3 day game jam, very nice job :D
