That was a very cool platformer! The puzzles, art, and music were very soothing and fit together really well. The animations were very slick. My favorite mechanic was the puddle teleporter, and I also really liked the blowing leaves scene transition. All three character states were very clear and distinct too, and were a very creative take on the theme.
I did get a little confused in the early levels by the flowers/ice mechanic. I thought they were all one way changes at first, and didn't really understand it was a "hot/cold" state transition based on your current state until "Crossroads".
I also didn't learn how to reset the level by hitting [R] until after I had already broken the game by going backwards during that level and refreshing the whole page :*(
Really great job!
Yeah I think I was trying to make a fire flower that did not look too much like the mario one, then thought "well a SUNflower could represent the SUN (heat)" sooo that ended up being the design but I totally see why so many people are confused :'D Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad at least you enjoyed our game! Yeah our tutorials were a little unclear, especially didn't know when / how to best introduce the R button. Was easy to miss, not your fault! Thanks again for playing and leaving feedback!
Managed to beat all lvl, loved the experience and the use of the theme. Really clean designs. I would say that some puzzles were a bit frustrating as I ended up having to reset because I was soft lock. I felt sometimes lost between the transformations (maybe a UI to indicate which plant gives which transformation ?) so when I failed the puzzles it felt a bit unfair. Anyway that's just me nitpicking. Insane work and great diversity in ideas really good job loved your game, congratulations !
Thank you for the valuable feedback! Yup the designs for the transformation was not too clear, that's probably on me :'D But thank you so much for telling us as we will improve going forwards, and I'm so glad you liked the game overall!
This game is beautiful and fits the theme in a unique and fun way ^_^
Thank you so much!! We came up with many ideas for the theme, this was our favorite! Glad we ended up going with it :)
Game is so beautiful, aesthetically pleasing with the music, but also it's extremely fun with well thought out puzzles and game mechanics. I love the idea of using different elements to change into different forms and their unique abilities. All the levels were well thought out and very very fun to figure out as someone who really loves puzzles. Hoping to see more levels in the future :D
Thank you so much for the kind feedback!! Really happy to hear you enjoyed the puzzles, I was afraid it was the weakest part of the game since none of our team is particularly strong with puzzle design (we learned a LOT while making them!) but it's such a pleasant surprise that people have been enjoying them. Hopefully after the jam we can make even more fun puzzles for this game if we have the time / energy :D Thanks again for stopping by and playing our game!
I like feeling small in those 2d scenarios, almost like playing celeste traversing through those 2d arenas...
but also more like the messenger in level design perhaps ...
a lot more cozy in all other ways
Yesss we got some inspo from Celeste for this game, even though they are a more action-y platformer for sure! Thanks for the kind feedback, I'm so glad you like the feeling of our game layout and that it was cozy!
A very gorgeous game, I'm digging the cozy feel.
Thank you so much!! I'm glad to hear we nailed the cozy vibes!
I like the pixel art style.
Thank you so much!!
it is so so impressive how much content you guys packed into this small game! the overall aesthetic is gorgeous -- i love the environment art especially; it's really well polished! the puzzle platforming mechanic was fun and really well integrated into the theme! the art for the different modes the player character has is all so so cute <3 the only thing for me was that it was kind of hard to remember which objects/sprites corresponded to which mode since they didn't visually look alike - could be a skill issue but it definitely took me some time to get used to, but the level design was very clever and made figuring it out fun! overall, super cute game that was a lot of fun to play :D
AAAAA thank you so much!! Yep we had some other playtesters give similar feedback, it was tough trying to make it aesthetic and also make sense / be cohesive in terms of the form transformation design. So glad you had fun though even with that difficulty! Thanks for playing!
The game design matches the theme very well!! Also well level design!! 5/5 Rated!! Feel free to rate my game also ~
Thank you so much!! I will check it out!
great job
Thank you!!
Really impressive for a jam game. Love the aesthetics ! Good job
Thank you so much for the kind feedback!!
Graphically fantastic, very nice art. Platforming could be a bit more responsive but the puzzles were fun!
Thank you so much!! Yes 100% agree; we added a bit of coyote jump after submission and think it helps; we will update the game upload after the jam to include it!
The puzzles were awesome, platforming felt a bit unresponsive at times but might've been an issue on my end.
Seriously a 10/10, I'd love to see this developed further with more levels
Haha no worries, I had issues with it too. We added a coyote jump after submission and are waiting to upload it after the game jam, it made the game a lot smoother, so hopefully that makes platforming a bit easier :) Thank you so much for your kind feedback!!
Cool art, cool graphics, cool game!
Thank you so much!!
Very fun game! I love how complex some of the puzzles got, and it never got frustrating or anything because none of the levels were too tedious.
That's awesome to hear!! So glad you enjoyed our game and levels :D Thanks for playing and leaving feedback!
Really cute artwork! I like the extra polish yall applied to setting up a nice menu and settings screens. That is something that is easily overlooked in jam games, but makes it present really well.
I had a little bit of difficulty with timing some jumps. Adding a coyote time could help for those timing situations where you press jump right at the edge of the ledge. The character changing hair styles/appearance with each mechanic was really genius and really matched well with the theme too!
Great job!
Thanks for the feedback! Yea, the coyote time seems to be the biggest thing that should have been implemented. Glad you liked the game!
Lovely Game! I love the theme and the overall feel of the game (the pixel art looks adorable and the soft musics fits so well!) <3 the controls feel a little bit clunky, but the puzzles are super interesting and I like the idea of change elements <3
I'm glad you liked the art and music!
This is an amazing game. So far the best I have played. The only flaw is a bit if awkward platforming without the coyote jump.
I totally agree with you, I wish we had time to implement it before the deadline, but hopefully we can patch it after the jam is over :D Thanks for the feedback! So glad you enjoyed it even with the awkward jumps!
this game could use some coyote jump help.
10000% agree, I felt that too when I was playtesting our game! Unfortunately we did not have time to implement it, but definitely something we want to go back and add if possible after the jam :) Thanks for the feedback!
The level designs are really clever and it's charming to look at and listen to. It's really polished for a jam submission.
Thanks Sam! Glad you love the polish, I loved polishing our game too!
