How does your game fit the theme?
The player doesn't get to choose when to jump, its necessary to get used to platforming when you can't control when you start jumping. You now have to deal with the consequences of jumping when you DONT want to. There are also a couple secrets, try to look out for weird/different looking walls! (You can read more about my thoughts on the jump timer mechanic on the game page if you're interested!)

For some reason I cant get this game working it always deletes the exe file when I try to extract the zip.

Do you know about any way to fix this.

Developer

Unfortunately I haven't seen anybody else with this same problem before... 

Its possible that an anti-virus application may be trying to detect it as a virus if I had to make a guess on why your computer is automatically deleting files. I don't know if this will work but if you try using  WinWar you should able to just open up the zip and run the exe without extracting it.

I hope that fixes it, sorry I'm not the best at solving tech problems like this!

The most i liked in this game was it's visuals. This game have a very very good level design and i think that you can also make this game your commercial on steam and itch io. Smooth controls and enjoyable sound choices.

I agree with all the other comments that this game is simply brilliant. Clever idea, polished controls and good level design. Also very good sound choices. Well done!

This is probably the best game I've played in the jam that takes control of one aspect of the players actions! It feels really nice to play and the art and sounds are excellent! We made all the music and art during the jam too so we know how much extra work it is. I hope you keep working on this after the jam!

Nice gameplay,music and visuals! You can carve a nice game out of this concept and please do!

Suggestion - sometimes the spikes do get a little frustating, so you can tweak the hitboxes in post-jam version.

Score-

Nice Visuals, check!

Amazing Music, check!

Fun Gameplay, check!

Golly! A perfect score!

Great art and music! The levels were really well designed and made great use of the timing.  My only complaint is that some of the hitboxes are really punishing. It was hard but I managed to beat it and I loved it!
