Cool game, felt like an interactive story. Mechanic was both frustrating and interesting. But it always felt like it was my fault i couldn't control them properly, not the game which is a good thing. Nice one.

A brilliant example of a story told by the language of gameplay.

Controls seem hard to master at first, but it serves the purpose of the game so well! More than than few minutes later you start to feels the movement and some dance like patterns start to emerge. It's such a joy!

Then you start asking questions. Like, why Pink can't go back? What does it mean?

It also feels very complete, which is a great achievement for a game jam.

The music goes well with your game. Very much like Thomas was alone. The yellow level was a little challenging but I managed to get past it. What happened at the end was it meant to end with just the blue screen? Perhaps  a fade to black and back to the menu would help. I didn't know if it as a bug. Other than that it has a nice charm about it.

Nice little story. Found that the controls were a bit difficult to get used to. The music complemented the game nicely :D Also would try and have some sort of restart or ending. As I think it was over, but I was stuck on the end there.

Really cute story but like everyone else said the controls are a bit strange but thats something you can improve on! The music compliments this game very well. Good job

Its pretty nice game, nice story telling, controls were... a little weird but I dont say it negatively, jams are to try some ideas. Audio was nice and graphics werent bad. Id suggest adding some abbility to escape game, and ending. I am not sure if inteded or not, I jumped of the map and nothing happened.

Still good job, nice game :3

I found the control kind of iffy, this can be worked on a bit more I believe. But the concept is really nice, I enjoyed it. I believe you got your inspiration from Thomas was alone. Well done. And the art can be work on a bit more too. Choose better color.

  • I’m not a fan of the art. I get that the whole point of the game is that everything is blue/pink but I feel like the shades used don’t go together very well. I’d recommend using a pre-made blue-pink-centralised palette from a site like Lospec

  • The movement doesn’t feel great. I’d suggest adding in things like coyote time. Although it does seem like there’s a bit of input forgiveness which is good

  • It seems like the player floats a little bit above the ground

  • I feel like the colorful hole is a bit too colorful. As is, an epilepsy warning may be required

  • The control scheme is really confusing but I liked it and it really added to the challenge

  • Surprisingly good story and very fun

  • When I was in the blue world again I fell in a hole and didn’t respawn: https://gyazo.com/1a3f18cab291832055d907c122224594

  • I wish there was a restart button so I could have finished the game

Honestly not bad great storytelling very simple and effective!

I really love the combination of the controls too well done.

Submitted

The yellow level was quite confusing but despite the games simplicity, but it was a surprisingly good and interesting story.  Good job.  (I found the blue car heh heh)

Submitted

I'm blue daba dee daba di daba dee daba di!

lol, this is amazing and very unique! I made it to the yellow level and then it got a bit too hard, but I enjoyed playing it.

I'd appreciate it if you could play and rate my game as well :)

Developer

Yeah, lol. Everyone gets to the yellow stage and gives up. I'll play your game tomorrow when I have time

Submitted

this is the most unique style I have seen so far

Submitted

Like the last comment I'm a bit confused but the game is very cool and unique! :D

Just wow, its so unique.

Im kinda confused about the ending. When they fall down, does the game end there ? 

And also, when it say they are in a cave. Its practically not a cave, considering there is a house.

In conclusion, its a very cute game.

Submitted

Really enjoyable, love the music and atmosphere. A delight to play
