There are some bugs in the final level after the reveal. You can get locked into spinning after the button speed game and not fall down after the platforms under you are destroyed.
Excellent game! I played this to the end and really enjoyed it. The narrative and flow is very polished -- one of the very few jam games I've played on Itch with voice acting. The voiceover, use of color, and timed enemies did a good job making the experience feel urgent. The bucket-related mechanics -- particularly that you need to land and recall it for other mechanics to work -- was a creative touch that added a lot to the platforming and puzzle aspects. You have great artwork across many phases and the narrative gave me some Forgotten Anne vibes.
Some of my points of feedback have been amply covered by your jam comments. Unlike others, though, I got stuck right at the beginning of the game, the first use of the bucket. I figured something was wrong with the keying that was preventing me from jumping or somehow using the bucket to propel myself upward, and I exited the game. I figured out the solution (after restarting) by luck -- I never saw the key part of that solution until it was (accidentally) solved. After that, I never had a stuck moment.
Great work! This is a very complete game, executed with the challenge of a large team and a short deadline!
I'm delighted you enjoyed! Thanks for the kind words.
We're hard at work on the polish build for this, so I appreciate the feedback. So that others don't run into the same issue you did, I'll spend some time thinking on how this can be made clearer.

The spin also happens with other times when you use the attack option.
Going to the right side and glitching after you get all the upgrades causes you to go to the place where the maglev is so you skip an area.
Also, if you kill the eye robot, jumping doesn't work
