Fun game, great concept and execution. One thing: I would have liked the letters to be capitalised to make it more readable.

The animations are great, looks good, feels good, plays good, it feels like a nice take on Temple Run || *chef's kiss*
I enjoyed this game a lot! The graphics are perfect, and it feels like a polished retro game.
My only real concern with this game is that I constantly get stuck on the corners of platforms in the boss fight which ultimately causes me to die.
I also get an error after beating the boss.
Otherwise, I loved it!
I did a review in the form of a video here: https://youtu.be/VrLvv5wIQig
In case you didn't want to watch that. I'll give a summary.
The intro to each level was very nice, it felt like I was actually going somewhere.
I loved the art and the font style, this coupled with the music set the mood very well.
The telekinesis made the game fun to play and made for some fascinating levels.
Despite this, the attack was the worst part of the game. It was either really inconsistent or I just couldn't understand it. My main cause of death was missing my attack, this made it quite frustrating at times.
I would have liked to have seen a reset button, I got a stuck a couple of times with no way to go back to the beginning of the level again.
Finally, here are the 'bugs' I've found:
Double Jumping - I don't think this is a bug, it is more of an exploit. You can jump, then use the telekinesis to place a dead body underneath you and then jump off of that. This allowed me to skip parts of the levels.
Super Jumping - When standing in front of a wall that is 1 block high, you can quickly tap SPACE twice to jump once, then twice off the ledge, this made me gain a tonne of momentum and also allowed me to quickly get past another part of the level.
Clipping - By standing in a corner, you can place a dead body on top of you to make you clip into the wall, this was inconsistent though.
Screenshot (52).png I did it, I completed it. I think that makes me qualified to talk about this game. Overall, it was a good game to mindlessly play. The upgrades were too expensive for what they gave you. For instance, it costs 50 iron to reduce the energy cost by -0.6 which doesn't have much of an effect. Once you get the teleport upgrade, you can just non-stop mine which is what I used to find the brother.
To be fair, it was addictive and well-made. My main two takeaways are that it 1. Took too long to get upgrades that had minimal effect 2. The character sprite looked out of place
Fine game otherwise
Awesome idea for a game! I liked how you incorporated the genre of the game jam to create something original. Panning the camera up at the end was a nice touch to see your progress instead of just having a scorecard, although the game did freeze after going for too long.
