The best platformer I have played from the Jam. Loved the control of the platforms and the art was great to look at while zipping through the map
I don't know if we deserve such big praise, but we love to see someone enjoying the game so much! Thank you!
Not going to lie, one of the best games I've played in this jam so far: from the visual and sound elements to the programming, everything is so smooth and comfortable to play and look at.
You nailed it. Congratulations!
Thank you! This really means a lot to us, since we made everything (excluding the unity engine)! We are glad it's appreciated and happy you liked it!
Wow, i really like the music and the art and the control are smooth too good job!
Thank you, we are glad you liked it!
Nice art and music. I'm not very good at using the arrow keys for platformers though.
Thank you for the comment! Having WASD as the main control was planned but it just felt awkward to put other controls somewhere on the right side of the keyboard and we didnt want to use our time implementing controls changing and use our time somewhere else, so we hope you understand!
I loved the artstyle! and the gameplay was fun and unique
I'm glad you liked the game play and the art style, big kudos to our artist for that!
I like the design, and the dashing is fun! Nice idea and artwork for the "is not real" indicator.
Thank you, we are really glad you enjoyed it!
Cool game ! Congrats !
Thank you!
I really like the art style of this game. Feels unique and polished compared to most game jam entries. 🔥
Thank you! One of our goals was to try to do more polishing this game jam, we wanted to polish it more but I guess you know how it goes during game jams haha.
Hey! Played through the main level, but the second part was too hard for me. Kudos to the game designer, really nice platforming + great art!
Thank you! Sorry if it was too hard, some parts sacrificed the easiness in exchange for more level experiments. Glad you enjoyed the main level though since I spent more time on it.
We are happy you liked it though, our artist really brought the game to life!
Amazing game ! Very polished for 7 days !
The visuals are lovely & the platforming system is very challenging.
You guys did a really great job ! <3
Thank you! There is still a place for way more polish but we tried to do as much as we could!
I think this game is really awesome! I hope someone who is better at jump'n'runs than me can really appreciate it ^^ but keep up the good work! I hope I will be seing more of your work in the future
Thank you!
I tried to balance it as much as i could (its still messy) but finding a good balance in platformers so that everyone can enjoy them to the fullest while also experimenting with the mechanic and level design(with very limited amount of level space) is really hard i discovered! So now it has more steep difficulty spikes, it kind of expects some level of platformer skills unfortunately with few more difficult areas. So im sorry that it can be frustrating for beginners.
Im glad you liked our game though, we gave it our best!
No problem ^^ You still only had one week after all :) and I am really really bad at Jump'n'Runs I will definitely recommend the game to my friends who are fans of this genre because they would have a great time playing it!
This was a really fun game and the art and music is just incredible!
Thank you for the nice comment, we are really glad you liked it!
Great job, awesome art!!!
Thank you ! Our artist really deserves a lot of love!
such a good entry!! difficult but not unfair. the art style is super appealing and cute, and the SFX were nice and gentle. great use of the theme as well, fun mechanics! awesome job overall
Thank you! Your comment makes us really happy!
Love the game idea! The visuals are also stunning. Awesome entry
Thank you for liking it!
I really had fun with this one! I'm surprised i got as far as I did, I would just say that after getting the second block everything becomes a bit too hard to control, maybe a system where one button swaps between the blocks instead of two will work out better? idk.
good job!
Thanks, we are glad you enjoyed it! Actually, we thought of alternatives after we finished it, because yes, it's quite demanding for the brain, which also made it quite hard to balance the difficulty and its scaling while also experimenting with level ideas, having just one button was one of them, but it was too late for changes already!
Unique art style and beautiful soundtrack!
Loved the gameplay mechanic but the controls are quite hard.
Thank you! We might have overworked our artist a little bit :D and I'm glad you liked the soundtrack too, our friend who created it needs more love as he's too self-critical about it!
And yes, it's quite hard but I hope you at least enjoyed the easier parts!
Ahh this game is so beautiful! I love how it looks and how everything harmonizes with each other.
The gameplay is also quite exciting but I honestly suck at games like this so unfortunately, I didn't come far. It's defiantly worth playing and I don't really have any critiques other than I'm not able to get beyond the first level haha.
Keep up this good work guys :D
PS: I would love to know what you think of our game as well.

Thank you so much! I totally suck at it, too! :D It took me almost 2 hours to win (and my teammates are able to finish it in 3 minutes), and I sometimes wanted to give up. But I learned to control it and it really paid off in the end :))
We will definately check out your game!
great stuff, seriously good idea
Thank you!
Very beautiful game, I like the visual style. The music is great. Sometimes it's strange to get stuck in objects by pressing Z. I don't often play platformers, but I enjoyed your game
Thank you for the comment, it is harder for non-platformer players, so sorry if you didn't get too far, as with the stucking in the object, if we had more time we would most likely try to solve this, not that it's bad if you get stuck in the object imo, rather its inconsistency, either get stuck or get pushed out, not randomly one or both, but we didn't have time to implement a specific collision handling!
