Good art, easy to understand controls and clean presentation. Nice job
The puzzles are well done! Made me scratch my head a couple of times.
But what I loved the most is that sad music and disturbing background kitchen noises. Thanks to that the whole game is seen in a new light.
If you mean the music especially in the second level, I was playing around with the pitch slider in inspector and apparently forgot to turn it back :D I recommend you try doing it next time (if you're using unity). Results are especially interesting when you pull it to the negative side.
Oh, I love pitch shifting so much that I do it in my every project. Especially if you animate it or bind it to ingame events, like mouse movement. Mmm...
Awesome game! I loved the art, but my favorite part of the game would probably have to be the slime sound just because it fits so perfectly! Overall great use of the theme.
a really cool colour combining concept that thoroughly surprised me, well done on the great game
Good game, with nice aspect overall. The game-changer of the colors its a nice touch, we take the same approach of multicharacter-puzzle-platformer, but adding some pikmin-style mechanics. Test if you can! I'll thank you.
There's a key that allows me to change color, I think it was some kind of debug feature, but I use to unstuck on a level :P
Good work!
Thanks for playing ! I'm gonna try out yours.
@the color changing. Yes, it was implemented as a debug, but I decided to leave it there for people to discover and maybe have some more fun with it :)
This mechanic appear a bit too much in this jam. The only original things is the color part which is nice change. The art, animation, and sound effect is well done, but still can be improve on. I think you can do some tuning on your level. Couldn't give this game a high rating because of the abundancy of the same mechanic.
Wow! great job! I want to see you continue to develop more levels!
Cool game, although I had a bit of trouble with the control, always confuse what to use xD
But I like the theme and woah you certainly did a hell of a good job by all the grafics and arts around and in the game!
The spliting mechanism is good, puzzles aren't boring even if they are not hard. I think it lacks a bit of tension (no danger) or maybe a bad ending if you don't leave with every one.
That bad ending its a great idea! Thanks for your feedback :)
Nice graphics ! Good job!
Awesome game nice job!
Awsome game man , loved it soo much . Good Job !
Thanks ^^
Really interesting idea, fits the theme perfectly and quiet fun to play. The atmosphere and the music is really well done. A bit more levels would've been good though, as the game feels a bit too short.
Oooooh this game is a whole bunch of fun. I really really love the art you've made! And the movement in the game feels really smooth for me.
I love the graphics and the music! The game is pretty fun and I love the puzzles where you have to figure out which puddings to join, when to split, switch to other puddings, etc. Again the graphics are amazing and really stand out! Great Job!
The audio was adorable in this game hahaha, love it! I think you already wrote this on the game screen but definitely should have a tutorial as it took a bit to get used to the controls. Other than that really good stuff!
The first level is actually the tutorial with controls explained. We didn't have much time to create levels, so it's very short and there's not much time to grasp the mechanics. There were supposed to be 12 different colors you could create by mixing together. But wellp, time ran out :D
Awesome game! I really liked the graphics and ambient sound effects, and merging together and splitting apart to solve certain puzzles was a really cool take on the theme of the jam!
My main issue was that the controls for switching between characters with the scroll wheel was really janky and it barely worked properly, using a keybind or the mouse probably would have been easier. While you nailed the "together" part of the theme I'm not seeing how the game plays into the "stronger" aspect, since there aren't really any situations in the game where the characters become stronger when they're merged.
Nonetheless it was a cute and interesting puzzle game and I really enjoyed playing it :)
Great game with clever puzzles! I did get softlocked on the second level though. Awesome work!
It s q little bit confusing qt the begining But it s a good game
