Wow. So much polish. So solid all the way through. Love your sprites and the way you use that palette. Everything reads so nicely. :D
The controls felt really good, which made failed jumps less aggravating. (even tho I didn't make it the end, because I can only handle so many falls to death :P).
I also liked the slight spin on traditional platformers, needing to shoot the carrots at the enemy before jumping on them... but I wish there was more like that... to differentiate it from standard platformer stuff. But wow... so much polish for a jam game. And it's a complete package. Like you have an entire solid game from start to finish. The little intros and all that! Holy crap. Loved it.
Really nice work!
