I like the concept and the art! I struggled a lot with the controls though. On my german keyboard I needed to press y instead of z (because they are switched). Also jumping with y/z felt really weird, when normally it would be the space bar in most games.

Cute game and music! the controls were a little difficult with z being the jump and the timer covered the bottom of the platform but I really like the concept and vibe!

Also I got stuck on the menu when I first loaded the game for some reason, I had to reload.

Nice idea and game here. I'd recommend changing the jump button to make it a little easier to play though :)

Nice game, the controls are not intuitive, and makes the game hard to play... Beside that, it seems polished, good job !

i prefer using arrow keys + z so i tested the controls using that scheme..... i didn't really test using WASD, but i could definitely fix them after the jam ends

The game is nicely made, the z to jump was troubling, but that's a skill issue haha. Overall Nice job!
