Cool game, nice flow in it.
I loved this game, I was not expecting that.
Supero original, great graphics and good music for the game.
Great work!
This is such a cool mind-bending mechanic. I had so much fun with this one. The growing circle effect to animate the change between black and white is a very good piece of polish. It wasn’t necessary for the puzzles but makes the switch so satisfying to watch. Great job on this.

Wow! Thats a rly good one. Love the idea and the execution, especially the animation, leveldesign and the artwork. Love it!
Although I don't know English, and for that reason I don't understand the history, the mechanics of the game is very good, the animations are incredible, what a perfect game, congratulations.

Wow! This game is so good! The level design, the use of color to define the levels, the slight puzzle aspect, the story, the character designs, I loved it all! This game was a blast, I hope to see more of this after the jam!
Really enjoyed the game! The starting scene was amazing very well done and really got me to understand the game. The mechanics are amazing the holes are genius where you have to go each one to change the level to white or black to progress is amazing. Overall a very well done game :)
The character designs and their animations were great! The environments made of black and white shapes were pleasant to look at. There was some creative level design, I particularly liked the bits where you had to look at the area under the floor to know where to jump. The music was fine, but had a bit too much of a "pressured" feeling, and the loop was a little too short. I like how it reversed when switching dimensions though. The writing was funny, but I wish I could have clicked or pressed the button to make it go my pace. Nice job teaching the mechanics through level design.
Interesting concept and really cool interaction with the level.
The character movement is fine, however I wasn't sure if it's a bug.
When the background turned black, there seemed to be invisible blocks.
And I totally got stuck there.
Thank you for trying out my game! Just wanted to let you know that the "invisible blocks" were actually intentional! The layout of the blocks are actually visible below the floor when the camera zooms out, like a mirror. I did have a telegraphed animation to show this better but the triggerpoint ended up being too much to the right which I'll change after the jam.
Wow, the mirror idea is cool!
I thought the zoom out is only to expand the view.
hey what a nice game well done great work !!
btw i rated ur game can u do the same pls ??and thx any way !!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nice game, but it was really hard to control and understand the game...
Changing the elements of the level while playing is a good design idea. I also liked the intro.
The music reminds me Braid :p I like the concept & graphics. I felt sometimes it was hard to control my jump / double jump. Otherwise, nice game.
Nice concept and great music. The game was really fun to play. I like it
I liked the art style and the concept is really unique , good music I really enjoyed the game :)
I really like the design of the game and the unique art style , Well done :D
I really struggled to keep up with the text. I like to take my time and absorb it all, but some of the text blurred on past. I also got a bit confused when there was the 'chase scene', and the screen looped around, but I eventually caught the dude. The wall of death looked frickin awesome, it's such a shame that I sped away from it and never saw it again. The graphics in general were very nice, but I kinda lost the context of it all without bits and pieces of the dialogue. Overall a very fun and unique experience!
Great game! I like the art, and the black & white aesthetic fits the villain design.
The controls is a little wonky, but not too bad. Maybe you can make the invisible platforms require less precision.
All in all, great game with a cute premise.
Edit: OH! I just noticed the name "guesstalt" comes from gestalt, and it references the black and white puzzle thingy in psychology, haha. Very apt name, nice.
Super creative, you made an effort the keep things changing with story elements at the beginning, camera perspective changes, boss cut scenes, etc.
Gameplay is perfectly harmonize with music, i really like kinda "less is more" style black and white graphics. Great project congrats!
