I do not know how you managed to put a spin on platforming but by golly you did it.
Plus your art has this aesthetic about it, i liked it.

Really enjoyed this game a lot. Interesting take on platforming games using the mouse. The art and music were really nice.
Pretty cool platform puzzler, nice entry!! The start menu is absolutely gorgeous; animated title, optical illusion checkboard boxes, the hand-drawn character, snowflake particles, mouse joke. All that polish comes together very nicely, and makes for a lovely introduction to the game. The intro cutscene added to this vibe as well, it was funny and didn't overstay its welcome. The ragdoll-y physics movement was pretty fun and chaotic, even if it did cross into jank territory a few times. On more than one occasion I was able to skip giant parts of the level by just flicking across the whole screen lol. The player turning into a sonic the hedgehog esque ball and bouncy around was always enjoyable to see. I think larger level rooms may have fit the movement better as the chaotic controls didn't lend themselves to the typical precision platforming and jumping inbetween spikes kind of stuff super well. That being said, I enjoyed my time with your entry. There is some nice polish, funny moments, and good overall presentation. Nice work, and keep it up!!
The game is quite interesting, I couldn't finish it because... skill issue. I feel it lacked horizontal speed when releasing the character, but overall the movement is surprisingly good, congratulations. Your game is great, it just needs some life improvements lol.
I was incredibly impressed! I got way more playtime out of this than I was expecting. I really liked the character, and the cut scene in the beginning of the game was very impressive considering we only had 48 hours to make our games. This game has great bones and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
