Thank you for Trying My Game, Hope You Enjoy.

Updated So when in WebGL the Player jump was floaty and too high I Put all the code for Physics in the Update method by mistake. I Put the Proper Physics Code in Fixed Update An Fixed the Variables. Works As Intended Now

This was a very cool entry, i loved the art style and the platforming, even tho sometimes can feel floaty you can have fun with the items and the obstacles, great job! :v:

I really like the concept of this game. The controls feel good, the jump feels a bit slow but still good. I love the art!

Art is excellent! And I love all the little touches, the ghosts and graves. Quite a bit of content for a jam game, too.

A good platformer. I enjoyed playing it. The only wish is that the moving platforms differ in color or shape. Great job, with a great visual.

Nice idea and a fun game. The controls can feel a bit imprecise and floaty at times.

I like the chase platformer idea! I found the controls pretty difficult with relation to the game. The jump was too floaty to really be able to land on platforms, and especially when on a moving platform, to land back on it. If things were tightened up I could see this being a really engaging platformer

I love Death's animations and the comedic use of the theme - it can be pretty tough and unforgiving at times but it's a jam game and you accomplished a lot in a nice little package!

Most of the art is great and the sound is decent. The controls need a lot of work though, it feels pretty bad to play. It's so floating and hard to control. I really like the background art and death, though I don't care for the main character. Or at least his idle animation.

Nice take on the theme. The soundtrack fits perfectly. Sound effects are a little bit loud. Controls feel floaty but I got used to it after dying a few times. Might feel better after some tuning though. All in all a nice entry for a jam. Keep it up!
