I like how you can recognize the sound effects as being created with SFXR :)\r\rI noticed that your parallax scrolling in the two levels is off, you scroll the background depending on the player's position but it should move with the camera and then slower than the foreground, not faster.\r\rWalking left and pressing right will make the character do the moon walk, make the left\/right walk frame depending on the horizontal speed and not the key that was last pressed.\r\rThe collision detection is not 100% accurate, when you jump into the right-most block in the "stairs" in level 2 you can fly through it and sometimes when jumping up into a block you get transported down into another block for a frame and then back up in the next frame.\r\rOverall I think you did a great job in those two days. Keep up the good work, I am looking forward to your next game in the next LD :)"},{"author_name":"stefvanschie","author_uid":"69135","time":"Sep 20, 2016 @ 2:22pm","epoch":1474381020,"text":"Thank you for all the feedback everyone and taking the time to play and review my game.
