Good job and nice use of both themes!

I especially loved the sound effects, very fun :)\r\rDiagonal slopes are always a bit tricky with platformers. I'd recommend not using them unless you can get them really right. Also the controls felt a bit weird at first because of the jump on key up, instead of key down. But after a while I got used to it and it worked out alright :)\r\rI like how the levels are quite challenging, but when you die, you're always fairly quickly back to the place where you died, which helps in keeping you motivated to clear the level."},{"author_name":"ohmmus","author_uid":"45331","time":"Dec 30, 2015 @ 5:58pm","epoch":1451497980,"text":"I agree the controls were pretty unintuitive because of the jump on key up. Plus I got stuck in Level 2 because I missed a jump and was too big to get to the exit.\r\rIt was a nice attempt at using both themes!"},{"author_name":"Dohxis","author_uid":"41073","time":"Dec 30, 2015 @ 6:00pm","epoch":1451498100,"text":"I commend you for trying to stick with the 2 button controls, but they are just too weird for me, which takes a lot out of the game. I think the game and idea isn't half bad, but graphics, music and overall everything still needs quite a bit of improvement. Not a bad job I must say but definitely needs improvements.

But to be honest I'd rather you drop the two button requirement and have the jump and speed have separate keys. It would play a lot better.
