Really cool game and it was really challenging and i really liked the music and the visuals
SO clever. Brilliant little idea, well executed, with a strong unified aesthetic and great use of the theme. Very good indeed.
I LOVE the mechanic
Very innovative! I love the concept and the design of these levels is quite stellar. I see a lot of potential for more interesting levels and design mechanics here and I'd love to see you continue down that road.
One complaint I have is the input for flipping the blocks - it's annoying to have to click a specific point for an action that doesn't really require precision. I think just clicking the left mouse and being near a block should be sufficient for flipping the world. Also, as much as I wanted to finish Speedrunner and Hardcore modes, I ran into a few bugs that prevented me from progressing.
Overall a really well done game that has a few kinks
Thanks for the feedback!
And yes, I think the demanding mouse accuracy was unnecessary and finicky.
Someone suggested that I could have just used the spacebar or another key to flip the world, and I think I'll look into that if I end up developing the game any further.
Thanks again and good luck with the jam :)
This was really well made! Worked well, and fun to play! Please find my video review below:
19:30 the downside
Just finished watching your video review 😀
Thanks!
Very smart concept, it also felt very polished, I enjoyed it a lot, great work :)
Great game. I like the puzzle mechanic.
It absolutely wonderful game. All made in high quality: nice movements, controls, graphic, sounds and very clever puzzle mechanic. I was joy to play. Well done!
I loved this games level design, it was awesome, the visuals were simple and worked well with the gameplay. Great game.
This game is wonderful! I really like the simplicity of the art and really like the level designs! Amazing work!
Given a lot of 5 stars because this game deserves it! I simply love the art, UI and the UI animations!However i really didnt understand the complete proper take on theme! But i loved this game and no negative feedback :d,Also please do check our game if possible(Not so great tho and has a lot of bugs lol and was created in 5 days)
Nice game. I played it and dont want to stop but the sound and music when the level switch is bad.
The game is realy polished and fun to play, awersome game desing. Good job!
Completed hardcore in 7:37 :P
Amazing game, I really loved how the hardcore levels are the same as the normal levels, but more challenging.
The only minor improvement I can think of is that after I finished speedrun mode, the end screen said I have "unlocked speedrun" mode, it should have said "unlocked hardcore".
I think the theme could have been utilized more, I had to check the description to figure out how it followed the theme, but other than I have no criticism for this game.
Amazing job, super cool game! :D
Amazing game! Polished, w/ a great tutorial and an interesting combination of mechanics! Well done!
This game is legit amazing. For a minute, I thought I was playing a game I just bought. Your minimalistic design, art, and music is perfect for the theme. Seriously great work. I did not complete hardcore, but I'm coming back to this after the jam to see if I can! Easily got all 5 of my stars.
I hate you boy. Some people had dreams and tried so hard to participate in this jam. Then you release this fucking amazing polished and profesional game made in just one week. I really hate you, get your five starts and stop letting others down. Jokes aside, the best game of the jam by far. Greetings mate, you deserve it!!
Lol! Now that's a review.
Nothing but praise for this, excellent work! The gameplay is crisp, the mechanics are amazing, the level progression is on point, the music is great and the audio is very satisfying! Teach me your ways.
the absolute polish of this game lol, is really really polished, and very well made, the UI is excellent, and the game teaches you how to play in a non annoying way, like a good tutorial has to be, the puzzle platformer combination really shines in this game, congratulations, i loved this game!
This is the best game I've played in this jam. Amazing work. I didn't make it to the end of hardcore mode though cause I'm too sucky.
I didn't expect anyone to 😄
Yet somehow a few people made it.
Thanks for playing the game and good luck with the jam!
