Since there's no health in the game, the damage from enemies will just make you sleepier. Puzzles won't be anything too intricate. I could see myself expanding on this later, though.

Competition runs from July 1st to July 31st.

This was my question and response :D
and it got answered.

Very nice work, I love the audio and art and the expression on the characters face when he/she jumps is priceless :D. I will definitely be following this :).

It looks awesome dude, thanks for the update! I don't think I mentioned this before, but I love the art style! The pencil in the tree was a nice touch ;)

This looks really cool, I like the graphics as well, but I'm also enjoying the music, seems to fit with the general theme of the game rather well.
