There is a slight bug that gives you false hope when you dash away just too late and die but still move. Sorta similar, you should probably remove the control of the player during the treasure grabbing animation as currently you can slide away while slowly brandishing the treasure. Tiny things though.
The zoom in during the escape is a nice touch, but I was surprised to not see the rumbles catch up with me as I was very hesitant near the end.
I wish you could implement a victory screen after the escape instead of looping back to the (amusing) start.
Many jam games have unsatisfying controls when it comes to friction. The characters are too slow or too fast, not responsive enough, slippery, weightless, with too much inertia or not enough, etc. Here this is properly snappy and satisfying (it's easier with this movement type, but still). Not perfect, but very close.
Challenging well made game! I included it in my compilation video series of Ludum Dare 36, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/MTi5CJCBr-w
