GG for coming out in the 6th place !!! :D
It's well deserved for your game ! 👍

Oh that's unconvenient, but I guess it can hapen sometimes, good luck at least ! :)

This game is great, I absolutely love it's aesthetic (the prettiest game I've seen so far on the jam) ! :)

It's also very "speedrunable" because of the many moves we have and the level design, overhall it's really well done, I find it rather easy to build up flow (sorry if I am not very clear but that's not a problem at all), but it's really hard to learn the second wall jump type when we just start, and I think it's a bit difficult to learn it in the tutorial since we have to restart every minutes, but even with that it's still a quite cool mechanic and I love that we can use the different moves we have in various ways to gain speed !

Good job and continue the hard (and great) work ! :)

Thank you so much for your very helpful and motivating review ! :)

I'm going to answer to all of your points progressively :

1.  I had many more ideas like a leaking pipe wich would make the water level go up instead of throwing water out of it, or the fact that the water sprouts could force a valve or a cogwheel to move a specific direction to force the sprouts and conveyor belts to move.

2.  The movement was in fact inspired by Jump King at first and then just became a way to force the player thinking a tiny bit before jumping to estimate where he would land (it's why the jump power isn't random), so it is a bit hard at first but when we understand a level it can be easier to reproduce the correct movements.

3.  Thanks for noticing little details like that ;) at first  I had to find a way to force the player stopping when entering a level because he would keep the velocity of his last jump before (wich made the game completely unplayable) and I also wanted it to not be abrupt so the player don't think the levels are jump random but indeed a path on the map (only the last one with the bottle of water could not be like that because I kind of missjudged my time and had to abandon a lot of levels).

Overhall I'm still working on the game as of today and I already fixed some bugs (like the one where the valves have a rollback when we go too far), improved the visuals, and added a save system for leaderboard.  I hope it could be a cool little game later but I'm still very proud of it since it's only my 2nd game jam. :)

Thanks again for your help and the time you spent writing such useful and detailed commentary ! :)

Thank you ! There are a few other mechanics I wanted to add but by lack of time and because of school work I had to put them aside. :)

Yeah I really hope too, thanks for your comment. :)
