Interesting mechanics and great level design! Also love the unique art style.

Overall very fun and creative game! Bug: Throwing a coin will reset your jump, allowing you to jump as many times as you can throw a coin.

A solid entry, especially for a younger team like yours! Keep up the good work in future projects!

Interesting take on the theme. I am not sure if it's actually possible to execute a more difficult jump, landing between the blood/lava pools and jumping on from that point. I kept dying after jumping the second time. I assumed you wanted us to try and decide between giving up the coin or making a more difficult jump.

So next I just tried sacrificing the coin each time, but jumping in general is what ended up making me quit. I had a hard time getting the correct distance, and restarted the same series of jumps so often that I got frustrated. I guess maybe I am just bad at it. :smile:

Nice use of minimal art that still has a solid aesthetic. The soundtrack is nice and moody. Jumping and landing sound effects would've added a good bit of extra life to the game, though, I felt those were missing.

Nice work!

It's pretty fun, the levels are pretty challenging, the art is nice(except for the coin and button sprites, those feel a little plain) and the music gives the game a slightly somber tone, but the physics aren't very good. Many times i'll just slide off of platforms and coins, and the coins often get stuck when pushed on the floor. It would also be nice if there was shortcut key to restarting the level, such as R.
