The game is very cute and cartoony. I would say 10+ as it does have cartoonish violence.

1-3 sentences on how you would describe your submission.
A hand-drawn side-scroller game where you collect candies and dodge haloween monsters

I played and enjoyed the one level that your game has to offer quite a bit, it's pretty well polished!

-I really like the art style! The characters are goofy and I like the glowing and crt effects. I think it all works together really well and the overall presentation is super clean. I just wish that poof that the enemies explode into was bigger, especially for the larger enemies.

-I like the rhythmic pacing to the level, it felt in sync with the music even in the points where I would die and get reset slightly off. The game and the music always felt in sync and I like that a lot!

-The movement did feel a little too floaty for me, but it was easy enough to get used to. I think making some slight adjustments to the speed the character jumps and falls would help a lot. In one of my runs, I was trying to hit every enemy but I was finding that I would fall too slowly to hit some of the more tightly packed enemies. If it were my decision, I would probably make the character jump and fall somewhere between 10%-15% ish faster, but that's just me.

-I did have trouble at the end of the level with it not showing my statistics. Everything was always 0. I was playing using the web version of the game, so I didn't try to see if it's the same way in the downloadable version.

Overall, I like where this is going so far and I'd be interested to see this game be more of what it already is.

Thank you so much I'm really glad you my goofy little game!

I really enjoyed making the art and music for this one, it was mostly the game implementation itself that I had the most trouble, specially the player physics haha

I did add an abillity to make the player fall faster by holding down however I didn't coded it very well so it's not that useful, but I liked your suggestion for improving the player movement and will try to balance it more sometime.

Right now the windows and web version are the exact same, but later I will later try to patch the statistics on both of them (and other minor bugs I find too).
