Managed to get it into a state where it can be called a game, unfortunately had no time to brush up all the graphics that were mostly supposed to be placeholders but oh well. Controls are also shown ingame but its A and D to move, spacebar to jump and E to interact, your goal is to make it to the moon.
The idea is okay, but it is a bit difficult to see what actually is happening, and why am doing the different things. But at least I finally reacted the moon.
I didn't have the webGL builder set up while the jam was on, it feels against the spirit of things to add new builds after the time limit is up but I guess that's just me, I added a webGL version to the itch.io page since I don't have a mac or linux to test on.
Looks like you had the makings of an interesting concept here. Sorry to hear that you didn't have enough time! For a few comments, keeping in mind your constraints, the camera seems a little too zoomed in, and the movement is a little floaty (I had the same problem in my game, hard to get it working just right) Hope you continue to work on this, or that I see you in future game jams

I love platformer games but I agree that the movement was too floaty. In the future try to make it completely apparent to the user what is happening. It took me a while to understand that I got lava to melt the ice that the ladder was frozen in.

The idea is nice, but when I was playing the game I wasn't sure what I was doing. The hints helped me to finish it, but I can't say that all steps of the way were clear to me. Still it's a nice platform for a good puzzle game)

The graphics are better than you're giving them credit for.
