This had really nice game feel in my opinion. I know from experience that getting platformers to feel good is not easy and in my opinion, the jump, move speed, accel, decel and other parts of the controls and movement felt really really tuned and played well.
I also liked the premise – the count down to live. It felt cool to basically ahve a time limit to explore in different directions. If I had to leave one note of feedback, it would probably be that I would’ve liked a “time left” or some indicator of when I would die. But in some ways it was also nice that it was missing since it allowed me to do the platforming without pressure. The downside though is that when I did die, it was often frustrating since I was super close to getting something and just wanted to retry a few more times from the start of the room. The visibility of when you’ll die or even just hinting at it could sort of taper the expectations, since that is after all the intended design and hook of the game.
Anyways, really nice submission, I had fun with it and the controls were impressive. Nice work.
