How is this game a platformer, what spin does it bring to the genre?
Kobold Run is a 2D platformer built around running, jumping, avoiding hazards, and finding the fastest route out of a dungeon.

What theme does this game use? also explain how you implemented the theme
The game uses the theme “Speedrun and Metamorphosis.”
We implemented the speedrun part by making the game about escaping the dungeon as quickly as possible. The player has a timer, a final escape goal, and level design focused on shortcuts, movement skill, and replaying the route to improve their time.
We implemented the metamorphosis part through the kobold’s ability to transform into different forms.

Did you use any AI or PREMADE assets in this game?
Yes

Nice game, I enjoyed the mechanics; I’d suggest extending the run time a bit.

nice visual, 

I suggest making the time a bit longer or when run out of time we go back to a point instead of the complete begining

Good visuals! I think you could improve the timer a little, but overall the game is great. Congrats

Interesting visual.

I suggest improve player movement

Nice game—it's definitely fun, but I think I'm too bad at it.

I think it has a lot of potential
