The game is not interesting -- not for its mechanism, but the operation system. First, player can't jump while they are moving horizontally. Secondly, player can be easily stuck into platforms. The random levels will create some impossible structures to player. For example, platforms lining up to the sky. Keep on working!

I agree with @guardhei, the controls are a little difficult and also I think the colors could be more obvious which are which. I did enjoy the music.

I enjoyed the mechanic and the music, really loved that the music stops when the circle starts moving.
But the game lacks variety in the levels and can get repetitive after a while, maybe adding more obstacles, moving platforms or a bit more challenge to the main mechanic would add a lot in my opinion. I liked the doodle jump mode much more than the levels.
Still great job!

Interesting blend of mechanics.

The earlier comments largely nail my complaints with it; hard level structures combined with awkward movement flaws. I notice you can "stick" to platforms if you hold move while jumping.

The music pausing when you need to jump to the next platform is a nice touch. Feels like there might be something there, try cleaning it up a bit in post compo and seeing how it shakes out. I suspect with more carefully designed levels and more interesting hazards, you might have an interesting party game.
