Love the slow time and anti gravity! Super fun to use to do the screens.

The wall hiking/sliding feels really good!

Getting crushed because I didn't bother to stop anti-gravity mode until after I hit the ceiling didn't (but that's more of a me thing)

Overall a very solid, very satisfying game. I especially appreciate that the levels are small enough, and the reload quick enough, that death doesn't feel excessively punitive.

Really fun puzzle platformer, there's a lot of clever ideas in here.

Very fun, surprisingly challenging! My only complaint would be that the hitboxes on the spikes felt a little bit unforgiving, it seems like they kill you the moment you touch them even on the side. Would love to see what you do with this going forward!

Had a lot of fun playing this! Great central game concept, I love that the slowmo and anti-grav modes each draw from different magic meters, and that I had to balance my use of each to solve the puzzles. I feel like the game peaked at the last level, and I wanted to keep playing! Overall great job.

I really enjoyed this one! The graphics and music are nice, and having to deal with multiple modes at once is a nice twist. The last level was quite a challenge but very fulfilling in the end. My only criticism is that the jumping feels a little floaty at times, but I see others have pointed that out already and it's far from a large issue. Overall this was a great submission.

I would appreciate it if you checked out my submission as well!

This is a really well done concept and execution! I had a lot of fun. You did really well in the mechanics. It's sad there's not enough time to add more levels but for how it is, it's really well done.

Great job!

Really fun game, I enjoyed it! The graphics and audio are nicely done and the use of magic was a lot of fun, great level design! In short, a very good entry.

Love the design and tight controls!

This was a great, charming platformer! The pixel art is great, and I love the dual mode mechanics that have a nice limitation with the mana cap. The only thing that tripped me up occasionally was that the left/right movement was just a bit slippery, and sometimes I'd drift too far when jumping during a precision platforming section and end up dying. Other than that, I think the game is very polished, and I appreciated the controller support. Hope to see more of it someday!

Polished smooth platformer with two mechanics incorporating the theme. Well done, I had fun playing it:)

Really interesting idea. Using mana as a resouce in this way is unique!

Magic Mode is awesome! The art reads well, the movement and controls feel great, and the concept is a great take on mode and platformers in general. I would love to play more. Well done!

Super cool, loved when you started combining multiple modes together to create more interesting challenges! Just sucks that the game is so short. That and the jumping feels pretty pathetic, which is the opposite problem of my game where the jumping is a bit too spastic lol. Tough to find that sweet spot I guess... Aside from that the art is also great, pat yourself on the back! Probably one of my favorite submissions so far.

5 stars across the board!

That was great! I got vibes of Celeste and Breath of the Wild (ie the runes), not bad games to be reminded of when playing a game! The platforming felt really nice and solid. Great submission

Fun game! It was well polished and the level design was thoughtful on how it progressed easing you into things. One of my favorites so far.  I will say the picture in picture style of the game screen gave me a bit of vertigo at first XD.

Pretty neat!  I enjoyed the last little puzzle you snuck into the final level that used both mechanics at once.
