Cute platformer, and great job for a solo project ! I have to say the jump feels a bit weird but that is maybe just some polish to do. For the rest, it was fun to play !

Congratulations for making a submission as a solo developer!.
For the music i recommend you to be careful with chromatic notes, you did a music piece on A minor which naturally only has the white notes of a keyboard, i see you tried on making it a melodical A minor scale with a F# and a G# but you went, on the piano, A, E, C F#, C, C G#, E, which has a tritone between C and F#, and C and G#.
Tritones are a bit hard to use because these are chords or intervals that generate some tension, chords that crave for a resolution, and you are also adding a G# which makes that melody a bit more unstable.
If you are just starting on music, i would recommend you doing something easier, tritones and changing chromatic notes are not a very easy task, on A minor you could actually, stick with only A minor, D minor, and E minor, (E dominant seventh being pretty common too, E, G#, B and D).
You can also use reverbs or equalizers to make your instruments sound much better.
Also, i do not think the music for this has to be as spooky, this game it´s more lighthearted.
Thanks for the feedback! You're right, I'm just a beginner at making music and still don't understand too much about tones, chords and all those things related to music. Also, the music wasn't supposed to be spooky when I was making it, it was supposed to give a feeling of introspection and self-reflection. Definitely gonna change the music alongside other things on a future update
cute platformer! :) shame you couldn't put all you wanted in time, hope you'll get a chance to revisit it some day!
Cool platformer, it makes it more interesting given the story. I've never played a platformer where the jump is more powerful than the movement force. I was lucky that sometimes falls wouldn't lead to a game over but having Coyote time could make it more forgiving. Congrats for submitting to the jam, good job! :)
Great job making a platformer! It was cool to see the different layers of the level. We got to the end, would love to see how you expand on this in the future.
I was surprised when I fell down and didn't immediately die. but rather reached another layer! The music was eerie which felt fitting to the theme of the game.
