It's fairly simple but still fun to play. Just goes to show that you don't need a lot of fancy art, music, etc to make an exciting game. There were a few bugs, mostly regarding collisions, but that's to be expected in a game jam... Nice job overall!! :D
Honestly really fun. LD concepts usually start really big and then get pared-down as the deadline approaches. Really good first entry!
Would be nice to have a simple texture or something in the background for a point of reference. Couldn't tell I was moving at first. When the $'s hit you, you teleport to the other opposite side of them (ex: if I'm pressing left, I'll teleport to the right side of them, moving into them) making it very difficult to escape. You can also teleport or be pushed outside of the boundaries of the map. Made it to 324 on my first attempt.
Congrats on your first game ! Ideas are interesting and original, the character growing and the 'enemies' pumping strength out of you like leeches is something I don't remember seeing anywhere else. The collision system seems a bit broken (i guess it was difficult to set up given the gameplay). Well done anyway, you created something and i had fun playing it ! Next time more graphics or audio ? :)
