Some tips:
* I prefer "performance mode" visuals. :)
* Jump behavior could be improved a little.
I like how you played with perspective. The visuals were really well done. I however struggled with the jumps. There were times when I felt I should be able to jump and it wasn't letting me. I don't know if it was a bug or just very strict rules about what size your character can be in order to safely jump and not hit an invisible wall.
I really hope you continue to work on this after the ludum dare.
Had some issues though: Sometimes the character had problems jumping up an obstacle. It kind of slided back when I had the feeling it was getting high enough to get to the top. The solution was to jump as a smaller Version, but it should be the opposite? Here is a screenshot of the Situation, the character in the screenshot was not able to jump over:

Also the smaller character shoud jump less wide than the bigger one? At least that would be more intuitive in my eyes. Also the character is a bit creepy looking. :)
Overall a really nice game and it was fun to play. You should definately Keep working on it!
Ah, and thanks for the WebGL Version ;)
Overall good game!
