Um... shouldn't this be a game jam entry then? The 48-hour compo rules state that it has to be done solo.

We submitted it as a Jam entry, whatever the case, it's fixed now.
Looks good. I watched the youtube video, I will play it tomorrow, right now I am on a chrome book. Looking forward to it. Nice work!
hey this was good! very impressive amount there, even for a team effort. ran smooth as hell. the controls were pretty unresponsive and clunky but that might just be me, i'm pretty bad at games. i liked it though!
Cute art style and cool music, the camera auto adjusted too slow though, is there a way to control it manually?
If you right-click (if you using unity web player you will want to go fullscreen) it will automatically force the camera to behind you to stop it from moving.
Also thanks for all the comments guys, we appreciate them!
Right click doesn't work on the web player unfortunately. :(
I really wanted to finish this but the camera problems got in the way too much. Which is a real shame, because everything else was great
Hmm, it works on firefox for me. I wonder if it's a browser-dependent thing. Does anyone know if it would be rule-breaking to make the camera just automatically snap behind you at this point? (For the web-player version at least.)

Web player seemed to bug out for me (not sure what happened). Grabbing files now to play.

Almost got through to the end but couldn't make it to the flag! Great feel/tone for the game. Graphics worked well. Sounds were great. Setting was cool. Controls were very hard to work with and almost made be quit the game before I got to the second island. I think this game could benefit from something like mouse look quite a bit.
really like the little dude, but man I kept fighting that camera. Really liked the feel of the controls other than that!
I hate the jumping! lol. also I cant see where im going!
I liked the style and concept, but the controls were barely usable in Chrome on Mac OS X, the camera adjusted too slowly, the text was cut off and hard to read. Making the game full screen made the character unresponsively walk off the edges.
Solid game, but frustrating - judging perspective from that angle can be challenging and waiting for the camera to rotate is painful. Unfortunately I had to give up because I just couldn't stop dying!
Camera control was pretty difficult (and made it a lot easier to miss jumps). If the character could hover ever so slightly (or otherwise change their direction during a jump) that would help a lot.
Music is really cool!
Audio was interesting, created a nice whimsical mood, fit with the art style. Liked how the tempo of the music increased, was it with speed of falling?
Some of the jumps were near impossible on the keyboard, and the camera was well...you know. Anyway, very nice work!
Oh my god, the camera. I'll try standalone. Cool that you support 360 pad
Needs a bit of in air control.
Looks nice. But the lack of decent camera control makes it hard to play, so you shouldn't have added a death limit and I did not finish it. Still
Camera was less of a problem once it was running in fullscreen mode, but MAN those jumps are really super hard. I think it's mostly because the little guy feels so darn slippery. Quite a few times I hit the platform but then slid off.
Also, I can only assume you imported the music as a 3D sound and attached it to the camera (or something nearby), as it gets a doppler warp when the camera moves! I actually kind of liked the otherworldly effect it made.
Looks good and the controls feel comfortable :)
I'm sorry, but the camera trashes the gameplay for me... I'm already pretty bad at platformers, so not seeing where I'm going... Camera problems aside, I really enjoyed the game. Maybe a little slippery when landing after a jump, but fun anyway. Thanks!
Quite impressive work for jut 72 hours. Audio got quite annoying after awhile and the camera follow could be better. But overall a good game!
I liked pretty much everything except the camera. Made lining up jumps impossible. Here's my gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3ugwdpNiWo
