I really like the atmosphere here, cute and tranquil, the parallax scrolling clouds were a nice touch, and the animation on the main character was quite adorable.
If I were to nitpick, the art for the main character noticeably stands out from the other art, I think it's the outline. That being said - it's really a nitpick, and I for sure couldn't do any better.
This can definitely be expanded upon in my opinion - if you find the time and motivation and no other projects are more interesting at the moment, of course. :) As the other commenter mentioned, a dash could be fun and engaging, maybe power-ups? Maybe even a progression through waves with different things to pick up, including hazards? Although the latter could be bad for the tranquil and cute atmosphere here, too.
The outline is definitely something I can experiment with removing/editing. Originally, I wasn't sure if the character would stand out enough, but I think the lighting has solved that problem so the outline might not be needed. Will take a look!
The dash ability is also something I can/know how to add, so I'll code it in sometime. I'll see what I can tweak to make the game more engaging, and maybe learn how to create the save-load mechanics for some long-term rewards/achievements to unlock.

Super glad you like the game :D
nice!
love the character animations and the star pickup animation you should add a dash (if you’re still working on it)
Thanks! If I get the time, small updates like adding dash abilities, extra ways to earn points, etc. will definitely be on my to-do list. 😁
