I might write a in-depth later. I have important stuff to do know.

EDIT: Really sorry, I usually right a five or six line comment.

Cool idea! Unfortunately, I rage quit trying to jump over some of those spikes, so I couldn't finish the game. I liked the soundtrack but I found it annoying how it restarted every time you switched. I also think keyboard support would have been a good idea. The art was amazing!

I think I have the exact same thoughts as you!

Nice puzzle platformer, I found the difficulty progression to be pretty well designed.  The music-resetting got a bit annoying in the levels that required a lot of precision platforming and shifting, but I did think the song was a banger when I stopped shifting and just listened to it.

The visuals are also pretty nice, and I appreciate the scrolling credits at the end of the game.

Overall, the game was a solid entry and a fun experience.

Developer

Yeah the music restarting can be annoying. Just ran out of time to fix it. Thanks for playing!

The music is great; wish it didn't restart every shift so I could listen longer. All the visuals are great, and I reset a few times just to try the different palettes.

Some of the swap and platform segments are a little too difficult for my preference; no longer am I the spry and willing youth I once was, ready to struggle for pixel-perfect landings. That said, they're well-executed and good-looking.

Excellent quality game here, I'm very impressed.

Haha, thanks. Sorry about the music. I prioritised making the levels look nicer over fixing that issue and just ran out of time. Thanks for playing!

Great puzzle platformer!

I got stuck a bit on the second last stage, but I finally managed to complete them all.

It was pretty satisfying.

The "mirror world" concept is no more a big news in puzzle games, but it was perfectly implemented here, with a good difficulty curve.

Also nice music and graphics!

Just not to say only positive things: the "radioactivity" theme was just about some radioactivity logos in the scene, not actually part of the game... :P

Other than that, well done! :)

Developer

Glad you liked the game. Yeah the mirror mechanic wasn't revolutionary, it was a 3 day jam after all.

Just on the point of the radiation signs... they're there to signify the radioactive waste that kills you if you fall while escaping from Radtown :p

Thanks for playing!

The graphics and sound were great! Loved the mechanic too. The only problem I had was the music resetting every time I switched which got a bit annoying after a while. Other than that, well done :)

Developer(+1)

Yeah, the sound thing got put on the list of "things to fix if I have time"... and I didn't :(
Thank you for playing, though!

Great graphics and colours! Only suggestion would be to make the jump stronger and/or the character smaller

Thanks for the feedback!

Top notch. Classy visuals, a really rather pleasant chiptune, a fun mechanic and great palette swap implementation. Excellent!

Developer

Glad you liked it ;)

Wow! This was fun. I didn't finish but i can really see the effort that went into this. Good job! 

Developer

Yeah the last few levels are a little tricky. They are definitely doable though. Thanks for playing.
