I was expecting a remake of the original G&W in Godot, but this platformer is a pleasant surprise. Keep up the great work!

That would have been cool too.
Simple and fun
funny flat man go boing
Wall jumping is a bit wonkey, not a fan of loosing all your gems when you die. But besides those, this is good
Very simple yet solidly-built platformer. You nailed on one aspect that any good platformer games should ever have: great tight control. This game has that and it feels great to control exactly where Mr. Game & Watch should run and jump. The graphic and art are nice charming touch as well with paying respect to Mr. Game & Watch's history as LCD handheld games.
The only major gripes I have is that one of crystals is nigh impossible to collect. You know the one you placed within the bottomless pit with spikes on the wall? One of the spiky walls is two blocks high, in which make Mr. Game & Watch's wall jumping impossible to pull given that he only able to jump over 1 block high, not 2 blocks. At least other segments that require tricky wall-jumping are more sensibly designed that rewards your effort and punish your failure. This bottomless pit punishes you for even trying and that's not a great game design.
Even so, this is a very good platformer in which you should use it as inspiration to make more and hopefully great platformer games. You can't go wrong with having great control to start with.
Final Score: 8/10

He walljumps more like one and a half blocks, so it's doable but difficult. Thanks for leaving a detailed review.
