I was excited for the idea of having to grab the gold and get to the door quickly, sadly I ran into the 100gold room with not enough slimes spawning or enough on the ground to get enough. Spawns were to slow to replenish the gold that I spent waiting for them, basically softlocking me. I think this is the only big issue here, some kind of system to not let this happen would be lovely.

Graphics wise i do love the spritework the dreamlike hazy colors, but next time either use a different transition or warn players about flashing the screen at the brightest color at every transition as that can be very distracting and potential problem causer for certain people.

Music and sfx were well done, ,good job on those!

Overall a fun experience that has a small issue to be fixed! Well done!

The monkey was a great character for this game. I liked the sounds/music and the enemies were perfect for the game design. Great game overall!

Graphics, Sound, Theme, really came together. Although there is a level design balance when carrying over gold from one level to another, as each level must have gold enough to finish it, otherwise happens what I faced, I had gold enough to skip a level, the other one I died, and there were not enough gold to finish the level. There is one thing about the movement as well, would be really good to change move direction while in the air to punch at the right direction. Thanks and Congrats, it is a really good submission!

Really enjoyed the graphics in this one! It’s simple but effective, with a nice color scheme that makes it pop nicely. The squash and stretch of the animations also really added to it. I played this on stream today (recording here) and got stuck on the last level for a bit since I kept dying and didn’t have enough gold to continue, but somehow accidentally found a way.

Good job on the game!!

The squash and stretch of the animations made the game feel so good! Some wacky collision stuff aside, very cool!

Oh man, beware if a dude falls on your head XD I panic died twice! It was a lot of fun regardless. I really enjoyed this! I like the gold losing value over tie and needing the right amount to keep moving forward.

I don't think it was press A to start for me it was a different button. Some of the enemies would get stuck on my head and then I would die. But yes I like the color palette its refreshing and sound was nice too
