I have really enjoyed playing this game and am trying to fight the ridiculous urge to call the runner Miguel.
Please.
Enlighten me.
Does the character have a name?
If not, are you open to suggestions?

Silly Jump is a challenging precision platformer with simple one touch/one key controls featuring a cute little runner named Miguel. The objective in each level is to collect all coins to unlock the wormhole that leads to the next level.
Do not be fooled by the first levels, the game gets challenging pretty quickly. Are you good enough to reach the end?

Miguel is a great suggestion, let's keep that. I will updated the game description after writing this, thanks!
Edit (5 min later): Done. I also published this game on Google Play and I also changed the description there to let everyone know that the character's name is Miguel. I like it ;)
I would really like to give this game a good review, but I can't. As much as I like the concept of the game and his originality, the physics are just off because every surface is like a wall, even the round surface. Also, this game don't know how to control the difficulty because it's fairly easy until the level 36. Because before that level, they were not that hard but after that, it's just super hard.
A game is suppose to have a difficulty settings where in every level the difficulty goes up but not too much but here, it just explodes when the level 36 appears. It took me more than 50 tries for the 36 and for the 37, didn't even finished. The other level were becoming harder, but no THAT hard, there's clearly a problem and the fact that something, jumping does not respond at the good time.
Could have been a really good game, but the realisation is off.

Thank you for the detailed review, there are 40 levels in total so I made the last ones quite difficult to say the least.
50 tries for the 36th and 37th level, that's impressive! Thanks for playing.
Update 25feb2016: I just published a new version (1.1) which should fix a lot of problems that you mentioned, check it out, thanks!
