As to the downsides, the power-ups weren't intuitive at first and I initially thought they were enemies/obstacles due to them having a red border with sort of 'hair', just like the red rectangle obstacles. I think that some color coding could have increased the game's readibility, with a color being used for all things bad/that kills and another color for the character and everything 'good' (flag, powerups) rather than have everything red. That way each element would pop out more to the eye.
It took me a few tries to realize what the power ups were (mostly they increased the heart size by only a little so it was hard to notice). You found time to craft level that hit a few different feelings.
