is the link working?

Link is working, if you simply paste it into browser link. The game lacked sound, also when i got to the end nothing triggered the win, so that's sad and not rewarding. But yet again, as for LD game, it's pretty neat!

The gold does not trigger next level, but you can ESCAPE and play whatever level you want. It's a good start. I would like variable jump, satisfying sounds, then just iterating on level building. Nice job.

Like Beard or Die said, when I reach the gold line I just collide against it. Cool idea to mix platforming with survival. Good job.

The problem with getting to the end of the levels is that I didn't change the path for my StreamWrighter that updates the levels that you have done at the end of each level. Sorry.

The sounds don't work for me. I played a couple of levels -- not bad. I also suffered the end condition problem.

The primary feedback I have is that maybe the fires move too fast -- they move the same speed as the player, which makes it actually kind of difficult to jump over them. Maybe they should move slower in the earlier levels?

Also, I'm not entirely sure what the "survival" aspect is. I think expanding on that mechanic could be interesting, and could influence interesting level design (if you had to go back and forth to different areas in order to survive).

There is no sound in the game and the survival aspect is the hunger and thirst bars in the top left corner, when they run out you start to lose health.

Good job finishing the game! The survival aspect is cool but doesn't really do anything right now since it is either just a timer for the level or you don't notice it and always have enough water and food.

I was confused with the grey bars and the fire. I didn't see any gold, or goal at the end where the yellow bar was.

Some eyes on the fire would be cool, so it looked like an enemy. Wanted to stomp it Mario style. :D
