Graphics, environment, sounds, controls it was all very cute and nice, and controlling 2 characters was interesting :D
Here is my game if anyone wantsto check:

There were never supposed to be 2 characters. It's a bug that happens when you press Start twice. Would really appreciate it if you gave it another shot with only one character!
Haha, really? It was a funny bug, some bugs are not meant to be fixed lol :D
I will try again, but I still remember this game amongst ton of others because it was interesting to play 2 chars at the same time :D
Nice level design. I appreciate the check points. And the progressive difficulty and in-game tutorials that show when needed. Very ambient and smooth animations. I really enjoyed this. Great job!
Great job with the ambience and the art. Absolutely loved it. My only two critiques would be that there were too many levels that made you do the same thing over and over again due to jellyfish spawning and the bottom of the character's hitbox was lower than the sprite. The jellies were cool idea for sure, but it gets annoying as the character does move pretty slowly. The hitbox also makes a cool floating effect but it feels bad when you miss a jump you thought you cleared. Loved the green launching thingies and everything else though. One of the better games I've played for sure. Great job! (also we have a similar character design lmao its pretty easy to animate :D)
The visuals and the movements were pretty smooth, great entry gameplay was fun
the art and animations are fantastic
Great job! liked it!
The art was simple but so much good and it's got a very good level design
if you want check my game mr sunny

i can not play your game on my Mac, but i gave it a rating based on screenshots and info :)
I love the art!! It's so pretty!!!! The game itself is amazing but doesn't go well with the theme. With that being said, I must say I'm impressed with how beautiful the game is, good job!
Hee-ho. Good and hard platformer. Very nice art
i got softtlocked for some reason, when going from level 1 to 2.
game is okay, idk if it fits the theme honestly...
but it's cute! lot's of levels
Thanks for playing! We would love to get more info on the softlock since we haven't seen that in our testing. When you say going from level 1 to 2, do you mean right under the transition area (with the light)?
i passed thhe first level with only one of the character.
in the otther area, the 2nd character always spawned oon spikes, and the first character spawned in a weird place in the level and i also got stuck with it.
it's hard to explain what happened, i felt like the level did not load properly
There were never supposed to be 2 characters, it's a bug by pressing Start twice. If you press Start once it'll work as intended. Would love for you to give it another shot
10/10, I love it! It has an original mechanic, cute art, and the mix of everything is really well done!
Love your game! :D I like hard games <3
This was amazing I played this for quite some time. It was great to slowly learn the game before that final rush to the end. Only key that was unclear due to UI was shift key, I was like Up?
Well done!!!
The music is so atmospheric, also the Celeste like transitions were cool, i think the 2nd level was a bit of a bigger difficulty curve tho lol
Cool art and game design, great use of light, impressive!
The music is very beautiful and the mood is very calm and nice in the beginning. It becomes deviously challenging. However, I do think it's a bit hard to judge certain jumps/collisions, it looks like the character is hovering over the ground, but at the same time it can pass through the tips of the ceiling. In general I do like the peaceful and zen-like quality this game exudes. But it does feel unfair and frustrating at times.
Either way a really good job :)
I didn't quite understand the theme, but the game looks very good. There is learning and progress. Good audio accompaniment
Very interesting platformer. Great sound and art.
I would agree what there might be more bright parts for a level or a background like in animal well, for example.
But the concept is easy to grasp and different elements in levels help to play around with main mechanic in different ways.
Stop by to check Stormflow as well!
Overall good game but the shadows are sometimes a bit too much and they hide the gameplay. But the art and sounds are super good
