Description
This is a small platformer prototype that I created in order to better understand how maps in pico8 work. It is meant to just be a small side project but I think it still turned out well.

Created by following the Nerdy Teachers platforming tutorial.



I initially dismissed this as a Work In Progress, due to the fact that when you die it goes straight back to the start, but since @Verb said it could be done I stuck with it and am glad I did.
It looks and feels good - I really enjoyed the game and want more! Its an interesting choice you made to have the jump tied to a pause. It does slow the game down and I wonder what the game would play like, if the build-up mechanic was permitted while moving? Did you experiment with that @JustaGameDev ?
Some things your cart definitely needs:
- A death / title screen
- A timer so we can do speed-runs :)



Nice short platformer!
I wish the mushroom could simply jump on press of jump button without entering charging animation. The charging should only start if jump button is held long enough.



Very nice and polished! I quite like the art and sprite work and the controls are tight
