In what way does your game fit the theme?
The 2nd player mirrors your movement. To finish the level, you have to consider the actions of the mirror player.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I wrote all of the code myself. (except for an engine)

Cool idea,
I think that the puzles were a bit repetitive,
the movement wasn't the greatest. But it's still a very very good game,
The BIGGEST problem, that make it the worst game ever was python, guys imagine using python 🤢🤮 (I'm joking I like python)

Confusing at first, since there was no tutorial telling me what the controls were. Try avoid writing it on the description next time, because then it shows that you over-scoped your game and didn't have time to teach your player your mechanics.

Even though it was short, I kind of wish it was a bit more challenging.

On a more positive note, I like the concept o f it and the soundtrack was neat.

Looking good, loved it, but i think puzzles seem to be kinda simple, but the concept is great and interesting)

Well done, bro <3

Really cool concept! the only problem is that there isn't a restart button that I could find, so at one point I messed up and couldn't easily restart. other than that though, really well done!

I really enjoyed this game. I like that it is to do with programming. The gameplay mechanics were also very enjoyable

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! If I had more time, I would probably make far more levels. I first even thought about quitting the game jam because of how short this game is. I hope it is okay for game jam games to be so small.

Hello ! Great game ! It's very sad we don't see a lot of 'coding games', that's cool you have made one !

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback! I wanted to design more complex levels, but they either won't fit on one screen or text became too hard to read. A movable camera wasn't possible because single-screen levels were the only way to display both players at once. Maybe a similar game can even teach someone the basics of the programming language syntax.

Hi there! I loved it; great music and great simplistic art style! It took a few seconds to undertand that you need to push the code onto the grey bar, the first few levels I "accidentally" won, but the it became obvious! Really liked it! 

I also submitted a small puzzle game :) 

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! I first wanted to make levels based more on colliding with background code but quickly realized that it would be near impossible without breaking the syntax, most of the level design on the last day. The idea itself needed refinement at the start. I am surprised that someone genuinely enjoyed my game!
