The concept was interesting, and I liked the mechanic of throwing your brother for that double jump. Some of the levels with a lot of enemies kinda felt like a waiting game, but I thought overall the idea was pretty original.

Firstly I love the level transition. It's a pretty good idea having to throw your brother and jump on him to proceed to the next level, good innovation I can see a lot of potential for that.
I had some difficulty on the level 'Babysitting' as the purple guys are always on him, I couldn't progress. It's a little hard to control how far he's thrown, and as you can't run or jump when carrying it slows the game down a lot. With a few tweaks and some artwork this could go far!
