My only problem is some kind of lack of visibility sometimes, but overall, the game is still pretty fun !
The platforming mechanics are fairly simple, but work.
One thing I suggest for future games: Not seeing what is below yoo is something you should avoid. Right before the end is a section, where you don't see the plattforms you are supposed to jump unto. The background, which is not moving, doesn't help with that.
Aside from that, I think this is a good game and I had fun exploring it.
