High Score: 46! I liked the color splatter effects. Movement was bit hectic and some yellow squares can spawn in places where you can not get them. Nice first game!

Thanks! I'll do some more play-testing to figure out those stuck blocks. I realised the instructions don't mention double-jumping, which is key to traversing the level quickly.. Whoops!

Top score 68 ! Great little game. Yes indeed the instructions don't mention the double jump which took me a while to figure out, I was always getting stuck somewhere. Also I couldn't jump with the jump arrow I had to use W. I think it might be good to have some sort of button to restart the game as well when you finish because at the beginning I was not realizing that they were different rounds. Maybe the contrast between platforms and background could be a bit more visible even though I know it's kind of the point of the colors in the back.

Really cool game ! I hope it starts an habit of making games more often so that you'll keep getting better

My best score so far is 93. Took me quite some time to realize you can double-jump haha Otherwise, solid small game, great job!

Nice! Reminds me of Icy Tower. The double jump mentioned by @whynot is a game changer. Please add it to the description! Thank you for the game :) The white blocks in my picture stop moving after a while, looks like a bug.

I like the gameplay. the double jump requires a slightly different timing than most I've seen, I like the unique feel. It was fun figuring out more efficient ways to play with the limited instructions, it felt like an accomplishment. And I like the way the enemies create and destroy the color splatters to reveal the platforms in a randomized way. My best score was 146Screenshot (3).png

It's pretty, but no idea of what I'm doing
