Fun little puzzle platformer, the art style is pretty interesting, and the calm world ambience was really nice. My only critique would be that the platforming and puzzle levels felt a bit separate from each other. 

Some bugs I found include sometimes instantly using your double jump when just leaving the ground ruining some jumps and sticking to the wall the whole time was also kind of annoying.

You get massive points for the movable blocks though, if timed correctly you could fly with them which was a lot of fun haha.

Good game just needs some polish.

Played for a bit, good puzzles, just a few things

The levels seem a bit wide/long, zooming out and/or squeezing the levels sides in a bit would be nice.

When you jump against walls you seem to stick a bit, was a bit of a pain trying to jump up ledges.

Other than that, great little submission for the jam!

Heya! Really loved the contrast in the colour palette and the way your screenshots and thumbnail accentuate that, very nice presentation! Here's my feedback from playing your game:

Game Design:

• In level 1, it wasn't clear that I was supposed to move left first - I think the juxtaposition of the starting area made it the most intuitive for the player to move right (empty inviting space on right, and most platformers traditionally operate left to right), so for the solution to the level to be on the left made it a little confusing to start and admittedly I had to read the webpage instructions to figure it out as I thought there had to be some keyboard shortcut I missed initially
• I wish when time ran out on the purple level, it doesn't send me back to the nature level. I would just want to restart the purple level without having to grind through the nature level again as I had already cleared it and figured the puzzle out. Having to do the puzzle repeatedly turns it more into a chore.
• The character is a cube, and it seems the ground check to perform jumps is at the cube's center. During the timed challenge, there were times when the cube is clearly on the ground, and I'm on the edge of a platform ready to make the jump, but I can't jump because the code thinks I'm not on the ground, due to me being on the edge. This led to a lot of falls and frustration because I should clearly be able to jump, but the game does not let me jump. This happens extremely often because it is intuitive to want to rush to the edge of a platform before jumping, to maximize your jump distance to land on a faraway platform. However it's not intuitive if the cube can't jump from the edge. I tried the timed level multiple times but I had to walk away because I couldn't make the final jump, which is a bit of a shame.

Technical feedback:

• When you hug the wall, you can't seem to jump to the normal maximum height. I believe this is due to friction or sliding from contact with the wall. For example, if I hold right while I'm against the wall and then double jump, I can't leap to the next floor. However that's how most players would control their character - holding down the movement key, and then using another key to jump. So having to release the directional key and make the jumps separately, and then go back to using the directional key to make sure I land, is a bit awkward. I think for a platformer it is important that the character control feels sleek and intuitive, as otherwise it can lead to frustration or confusion for the player, especially when the jump height is inconsistent.

Graphical feedback:

• Nice polishing touches like subtle leaves dropping in the nature levels. Adds a lot to the feel and immersion you were going for with the calm levels.

What I loved:

As mentioned, I really loved the aesthetics and colour palette chosen. The use of purple is gorgeous and contrasts the yellows and greens of the nature levels. The character being a white glowing cube also makes it stand out regardless of the level. Loved the intro animation as well and the music that adds so much "feel" to the game!

Edit: Also using the mouse to move the cubes is pretty nice, and the physics interactions is also cool. While I didn't make it far, I think that's an idea that I would've loved to see explored more of in later levels!

Great game, I liked the idea. Using mouse to help player to navigate

hyper casual design in monochromatic art looks cool

Visuals are splendid but I had some issue with the controls. Overall decent experience, pretty chill platformer

A pretty simple game. I like the graphics, though — it really creates the atmosphere of calmness.

I love the game concept and the art style. I got a little bit confused at first and didn't think I have to avoid the red button haha, very cool and cute menu you made, keep it up!

Hi, hope you had a blast during the jam. I don't think I had the controls figured out but I cheeked my way through level one and got stuck in level 2 in a hole. Retried and got to the end of level 2. Love the box, basic but it was shiny! haha I like shiny haha

Try Tornad.io aswell and leave a comment about what you think about it! :)

could use some basic instructions, like main gimmick/controls/objective etc. really nice looking visuals though! thanks for entering!

Edit:

played again after fixes, first time through i didnt realize you could pick up blocks with left click lol, not sure if i missed that in the description or if it was changed later lol. anyways i played it again.

nice visuals/ atmosphere, all of the gameplay was functional, didnt find any bugs. actually really well done physics, thought it would be more buggy given the player clipping in and out of cubes and such. just having movement and being able to click on the screen at the same time was a nice combination since you could kind of change the environment as you went through it.

couple quirks:

-gap between puzzle "solution" and "execution" was quite large, and the execution was sort of uninteresting

-finnicky jump mechanic, not high enough/inputs dont read on ledges occasionally(might be skill issue lol)

- long gap between retry points

-platforming pitfalls/drop downs

The combination of these things made for a somewhat frustrating experience since there was a long execution, then youd reset after the jump mechanic wouldnt work quite right and have to do it all again, or after walking into a pit thinking that was the direction you were supposed to go. especially in the frame of a game jam where theres a lot of things that i want to try. the calm levels seem to have an execution time of at least 30-40 seconds, meaning that if you have to do that and the storm levels 3-4 times, it can take a good 5 minutes just to clear a level.

Nicely made thing overall, its just those little quirks holding it back. The changes id recommend would be to shrink the calm levels by 70%, make the jump go a little higher, and mark the pits a little more clearly, like having spikes instead of bottomless, or a little camera script for the arrow keys to move the camera to look under you. tiny little changes but theyd make a huge difference. thanks for entering, really nice overall!
