Thanks for sharing your project. Glad you have a How To Play screen but right now it's a wall of text, having some images, using bold text, headings, etc. would really help make it easier to parse.
I really appreciate the effects you have on the screen to really add some polish during gameplay. Having some additional movement on the title screen I think could really help as well.
It took me awhile to figure out to use charge while jumping over to get more distance but once I did I was able to get farther. I may consider moving the health bars to the top left and maybe add some additional feedback there to show you lost health.
Good work!
