seems like it will be a really fun game. I hit some issues though

- in the room where you first have to hit spikes to get higher, I exited the top right and it just clipped me out of the world. I started falling in empty space and couldn’t get back, had to restart the whole game . Isn’t this where the exit is anyways though?

- in the same room, I tried exiting top left and it clipped me into the left room. It took 10 seconds before I could leave
