I liked the simplistic graphics and the colour choice. I've never seen a of stay-on-screen game with a platforming style. Nice work!

Game is pretty fun, with really nice minimalist graphics. Having some sound effects will definitely complete the experience. Awesome work!

First of, I want a faster respawn time! That's really the only issue I have. Feels pretty good to play, maybe the jump is a bit floaty but it's not necessarily a bad thing. Simple graphics but they look good. Could use some more variety but for a jam game I had fun with it. Also never forget audio, just simple bleeps and bloops add a lot.

I really liked it!

The minimalist graphics were great! Something I saw in a different game which I think yours could benefit from as well was a color palette change in-between your tries.

The respawn could be a bit quicker in my opinion, but other than that the gameplay loop feels solid! I didn't have the possibility to try 2 player-mode but that seems like a great idea. All in all, a solid game!

I like the minimalist aesthetic and the use of colors. It's also cool that you implemented a multiplayer mode. Controls could have used a bit of work, in particular the super floaty jump. I also felt like the levels got pretty familiar/repetitive after 2 or 3 attempts. regardless, it's an overall solid package. nice work!

Nice challenging game. Visuals are efficient and cohesive - you really nailed that part of it.

Love the simple graphics and the palette you used. It takes some skills to get deeper and deeper. I only played on my own as single player and I enjoyed it. Too bad there is no music of sound effects!

I really like the controls, and the visuals, and the random level generation, and the animations. Other than the lack of sound effects, I have no complaints. You made a really simple game and polished it to no end. Very nice job!

This game surprised me with its nicely done UI and multiplayer mechanics. The controls feel really tight and the graphics are really easy to "read" visually. The minimal design really suits it. Needs some audio and if you could add some variety to the level generation I could see this being a really popular game in an arcade.
