Nice job!

Generally you want to use images with a transparent background.

It would also be nice if there was a a way to destroy the enemies.

But it's a great start, especially the random levels!

I quite like the procedural generation here, but difficulty is pretty high.
I'd even say, unbearable, at times.
And by "unbearable" I mean this:

Like, really, I was playing for several minutes to get to that point, just for a definitive loss that throws player all the way back.

well, I'm actually just spawning the enemies at totally random positions, so its quite possible some will gather around a platform and completely bar your passage


there are a few things that could be done, 1 and 2 are pretty simple
1) reduce the number of enemies, the probability of a barrage happening will be smaller
2) reduce the size of the enemies
3) make some sort of code to dont spawn too many enemies together, or too many enemies close to a same platform
