One of the better Deception Jam entries I've played. I'd recommend changing the color of the font, as it blends in too much with the background and is obscured. The controls are fine, although your sprite is a bit off center. When you switch from left to right (and vice versa) the object "teleports" (for lack of a better word) a few pixels back. Due to this, I got stuck in walls and fell off platforms on numerous occasions. Even with these bugs and a lack of background music, it's a great entry.

Thanks for your review/suggestions
Yes,I know that the sprite is off center and the walls have some bugs.
The lack of background music and the monochromatic colors were intentional.
i get that the game is about die and restart, but restart button doesn't work and reload the game is anoying... The game have potential if you give it a litle more care in messages, for example, the background is a checkboard, and the checkboard cube kills you that could be a message but it fails, if the background is a big square like the coin square, then we have a message.
:) it's a good game to keep impoving :D

You can restart game with escape button
got stuck int he corner after i failed down from the still block, at the first wall lol! if you keep developing it you might get a good game out of it!
No sound, no music, a game that advertised itself as having deception but is ultimately a pretty straightfoward platformer.
But what really cause me to score it low lies in three flaws: it's blinding, ugly neon green graphics, the dysmally small size of the sprites, and a crippling bug where the player character is shifted significantly to the left or right while turning around potentially trapping the player into walls.
It is an extremely short game but given the total absence of story, originality, or developed gameplay, it is the lone reason the game is bearable at all.
Basically?
I hope this is your first game or something because if it isn't, I suggest you go read and watch some tutorials on how to make a platformer before trying again. As it stand, I'm giving this only two stars.
This is only a prototype, right? There are many things wrong here: aggressive color palette, lack of originality or character, lack of sound... And the way the "hero" teleports every time you change direction is pretty irritating. Please come back with a game, not a first draft of a game...
