Hi, I had the controsl problem on the embedded but it worked fine on the dropbox link. Pretty cool, but lacking in some UI imho, like a gauge to show you how strong your jump is going to be. Also, you should reset the player speed when respawning, because it makes it harder to understand when you die and insta-respawn flying.
Anyways, pretty cool :) Nice music also!

I had trouble getting the game to work; it seemed like when the rainbow collided with the chicken the game threw a bunch of errors. (This was in the web version.) By the way, I think you need to link to the HTML file in your Dropbox so the user doesn't have to download a zip. Nevertheless, the graphics are really cheeky and adorable, and I love making the rainbows! Great concept.

Could use some love on the UI, but toher than that great game. ALSO YOU USED THAT SONG. I love you forever!

Hey, just a note: using a song you did not make yourself is not allowed in the compo.

Runs fine on Linux under Wine, and I love the art style. The game could use WASD controls as well, though; You can only right/left with SD, while you can also jump with the arrow keys.

Hard to control the character and I got stuck in trees sometimes, but catchy music and fun. :)

The controls were a bit unresponsive at times but aside from that the gameplay was refreshingly fast-paced and fun.

Fun game and nice graphics but the controls are very weird and I got stuck in trees multiple times too :(
Nice work though!

Just a heads up, I don't think compo entries are allowed to use premade music. Jam entries can, however. Sorry if I misunderstood what you meant.

I got stuck behind a tree when landing on a platform. Also, trees don't seem to count as platforms so the rainbow did not reset.

The jumping is kind of fun, but I feel like it needs to charge faster and there should be some sort of visible indication when you reach max so you know how long to hold the button down.

I think you can change your category to "jam" instead of "compo" by the way. A lot of compo games don't even have music because people run out of time.
