It would be cool to add longer levels. Nice try for the first time

Fun gameplay, nice interpretation of the theme, could do with some sound and more levels though.

A really nice entry for your first LDJam! Good job ! Next time, you should describe your control scheme and add some music

Overall a fun and well made little game. The levels is a bit short, but it's okay for jam game.

Great game!
Some feedback I may have: Give the player the choice to use W A S D too, in the end, it only makes the game more accessible. And the background parallax moving while the player is standing still is confusing at times.
But great work altogether! =)

Decently fun! Would have liked it more if some more instructions were available, but once I got it I ran for my life!

Past a certain point, I couldn't progress at all. I would get a game over any time I went too far to the right. Maybe this is just where the game ends? Enjoyable idea and a good take on the theme, though.

Only major criticism is that there's almost no time to react to Death once the countdown timer starts. I'd keep him from moving until the player starts moving or position him farther away from the player's starting position.

I agree, couldn't progress from one level, it was always game over. The levels are too short and easy, so they could be made longer and more difficult. I have no idea why the game took so long to load, but that shouldn't be happening. Anyway, fun concept & congrats on your first game for LD, you did make a game after all! :smile:

It's a bit fast when the level starts, I had to be careful not to miss it at the beginning. But the proposal was good, I liked it. Congratulations!
