Change some music
redesigned the level
TODO:
figure out how to de-couple the background from the level.
currently the entire level is drawn out in the map space. Need to figure out way to draw the levels in code I think, so I can use the map space for the backgrounds of different levels. Currently only enough map space for 1 level...

WIP of my first pico-8 dev project. I built this on top of @matthughson's excellent advanced micro platformer with liberal use of the amazing art from kicked-in-teeth's tile sheets and DOM8VERSE's projectile tutorial from pico-8 fanzine #3.
dang that's hard! personally i find the platforming is a little too floaty, but maybe that's just me
i do like it, especially the game mechanic; i must've played it 50 times by now trying to beat it!
JeremyRedhead, wow thanks for the feedback and for playing! Definitely way hard, I agree. I've not worked on it for a bit, but I'll try fine tuning the character air speed.
Also the level layout has not yet had a huge amount of thought put into it yet. I can barely even beat the thing although its really just one very short and difficult sequence.
