This kinda feels like a case of the developer designing the game around their own skill level, and not the player's. The last level just felt a bit too hard for the average player to do without getting annoyed. I think the timer should’ve been made more lenient, but an extra mode could be unlocked after beating the game that’s the “second quest” or something, which would be version. It was still fun though, disregarding the timer problem I think the difficulty of the platforming itself was refreshing to see. A lot of platformers in jams turn out very lenient, the player can mess up big time and still succeed. But here you either hit the jump well or die. And the art looked good throughout. Oh and I loved when the on-off blocks showed up.

I love the pixel art. The controls were nice. Fun platformer that gives the retro vibes. The jump sound effects is cute too!

Nice short little speed run game. Felt like the timer was a little bit too strict though, then again that's just me

good speedrun game :)

The problem with the game is that there are some bugs that become extremely frustrating when you are on such a tight timer. Other than that, great game.

Fun speedrun challenge where every input matters. Nice entry :)

Really neat game, and the timer really helped me to find the best path!

As a fan of speedrunning games I can confidently say that you really hit the nail on the head with this one! The last level was really tough, but I managed to make it after a few dozen tries. Controls felt snappy and there were just enough levels to keep me invested. Had fun for sure.

Fun short platformer! I love speed running so the timer was a great addition. Simple but enjoyable. Great job!

that counter made the game super frustrating BUT in a fun way, great job:)

A simple yet annoying platformer. The visuals are nice though.

I like the tight controls and the feel of the old style mario-like visuals and sounds. However, I wanted to throw my keyboard at the wall by the end :D And it would be nice if the time counter started only after your first movement input. Otherwise good job!
