How does your game fit the theme?
"Our game fits the theme through a literal and visual count-down mechanic. The player must count up by collecting 30 coins, which triggers the ultimate boss fight. During this intense final battle, the player's 3 lives act as a strict countdown to game over, forcing them to dodge obstacles and target the boss carefully before their count reaches zero."

Nice game! I enjoyed collecting the coins, but the boss fight is very hard. Also, the boss spawned inside of me, removing a life instantly. I would also think it should have showed coins needed, to follow the theme better. I like the page, and the description. The only thing I will say is that the artwork should be improved for the big update. It's not bad for the jam though. Lastly, I would like some background music.

Here is my GMTK game, /jam/gmtk-jam-2026/rate/4821968

For a first game this is pretty good.  I like the idea of collecting a bunch of coins before fighting the boss and needing to keep your health consistent, but since the boss can spawn on top of you it's very easy to die to it unfairly, plus the coins can spawn randomly and land either on you or on top of an enemy and making too easy or too difficult.

You have a lot of potential, keep making games!

Adorable game. Thank you for trying your hand at this GMTK game jam! I hope you had fun creating this game, and I hope you continue to make more in the future. Wishing you the best.

That was fun! I liked the boss fight at the end.
I would have liked to be able to shoot in both directions. And the boss spawn also feels a bit unfair if the last coin is on the right end of the level.

What an enjoyable challenge. Thought the game was easy until that boss fight.

Well done! One thing i would recommend is keeping controls consistent. have a separate button assigned for shooting so the player knows space bar will always be for jump. Keep it up!
