Ranked from 95 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does you game fit the theme?
There are "Spoofs", or imitations of yourself that act as obstacles, and in some cases tools in the levels. However, they aren't real, they lack the ability to finish a level or to move on their own.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All assets made by me, in two days (I forgot about this jam lol so I did it basically all in one go). This includes: art, animation, code, music, sound effects, and level design, etc.

Cool puzzle game. Levels are tricky and make you think but never frustrating. This is particularly impressive for something made in two days.

Would have been nice if the buttons gave feedback to having the mouse cursor over them. That would have made it clearer that they were buttons, which is important because of the way they're placed in the environment.

The game gave me a "Baba Is You" vibe. I wonder if that was a source of inspiration.

Wow, super relaxing and cool. How can you do something like that so fast XD

Solid game all around, Great job!

Absolutely superb puzzle design. Very challenging, with the exact feeling of "aha!" that you look for in games like this. Makes you feel dumb until it makes you feel very smart.

Only issues I had were: 1) a bug that allowed me to move the spoofs separately from the main character depending on how fast I moved (this allowed me to solve puzzles easier), 2) I found it difficult to discern which spoof could pass through which block. I think a better introduction or clearer clues as to which one can do what would go a long way.

Minor complaints, though, and nothing that can't be immediately fixed. Incredibly well done.

Developer

Thanks so much for the feedback! At the moment I'm working on a potentially much larger release of the game, so I just completely re-did the movement system to fix that bug, as well as make new sprites for the colored block that hopefully make it more obvious what does what. Im also glad you felt those "aha" moments too :) Glad you enjoyed it!

Amazing game! I love the minimalist artstyle, the soothing music, the right amount of sound effects, and the overall atmosphere of the game... Very relaxing. The game itself also had some pretty cool mechanics and the levels were also challenging but solvable, and very satisfying to solve as well. The UI was also very well done, I really like interactive UIs. There are no real major complaints other than the fact that it doesn't really emphasize on the theme, they sort of seemed like friends that help you along your way, rather than spoofs of you that aren't real... Other than that, the game was amazing, love the concept, brilliant execution. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that I could've executed the theme element a bit better. Now I'm working on a larger release for the game, and I've tried to emphasize that a bit more, so thanks again!

A really interesting puzzle game! Loved exploring the concept and the puzzles were satisfying to solve :D

Great game. Rated it. The graphics are good and it relates to the theme. Pls check out my game as well if you dont mind - https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-7/rate/1418152

You did this in 2 days?? That's nuts. The music is very atmospheric, kind of reminiscent of Baba (I hope I'm allowed to make that comparison, I mean it as a good thing!) I like the little details too, like if you kill the real one, the spoofs that can still move don't have any footstep noise. The puzzles are challenging, the sprite art is great. Just  a home run of a game, especially in 2 days geeze. Way to go.

Developer

Thanks so much! Don't worry I took a bit of inspiration from baba, so thanks lol. And I'm glad you noticed those details too, not many people do. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the kind words!

The levels are very well made and the puzzles are great. I love the fact that you can move the player to navigate the GUI - great idea! 

Developer

Glad you were able to enjoy It! thanks for playing!

Love how self-explanatory it is. Very impressive for two days of work. An (automatic) level-reset or undo option is no luxury because there are many ways to lose the game. The puzzles get quite difficult in the end, which is cool.

Edit: only now saw in one of your comments that “You can actually restart the level by clicking on the circular arrow in the level.”. Didn’t realize! A text pointing out what button to press or click after you died would be one solution.

Developer

Yeah I agree with the restarting of the levels, in the future I'll add in a hotkey and maybe that text you mentioned. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Pleasing to look at puzzle game, but I think the tile design sometimes muddled things, I think some more clarity with things like "Where is the end?". Also think the restart/menu should be consistent

Nice puzzle game! I was stuck for some time in the last levels. All the puzzles were really fun! Is there some way to restart the level you are in because I always just restarted the game when I got stuck? Or am I just dumb lol. Overall a really good game! I'd appreciate if you would also play my game and rate it. Thanks :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! You can actually restart the level by clicking on the circular arrow in the level. Is there a build of your game for web or Mac? Would love to give my thoughts!

Submitted(+1)

I am sorry but when I builded my game I forgot to make a Web build and I already submitted the game. I will add a Web build once the jam is over

Fantastic puzzles, they really challenged me to the point that I actually got stumped on some. I'd leave the game open for a bit while doing other stuff and come back and try again until I beat the puzzle. I really like the clone mechanics, a bit confused as to what the different colors did at first but still had a good time. Great game!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it. I agree that the different color mechanic could be easier to understand, so I’ll look into improving that in the future. Good luck and thanks again!

Great puzzle game, I really love puzzle games and this is a really great one . the art is really good too but the cut in half animation was something I really was not expecting  lol...  but welcomed

Submitted(+1)

The art is really nice, the level design is well-made and I really like that the menu and UI buttons are actually part of the levels.

Really nice puzzle game, 

Great job!

One f the better games. Fun puzzles and good visuals. Clones are not real so they are expendable...=)

Well Done.

I'll try yours once I get back from work!
