Had fun playing the game
Well done!
Really cool concept and game! However, sometimes the player gets stuck in the ground while jumping. You can fix that in unity by adding a Physic Material 2D to the player, with 0 Bounciness and 0 Friction.
I am glad you like the concept of our game. Thank you so much for the suggestions, we are well aware of that issue you brought up and we already have an updated version of the game ready for release when the game jam officially ends. I look forward to trying out your game!
This game is a perfect example of potential. I really love the graphics and the concept is really original and fun. I do have a problem with the movement and it's easy to get stuck on walls. I had a tough time jumping over the first obstacle because of this. But other than that, it was really fun game. I really hope you improve this game in the future.
Thank you so much for the compliment. We really wanted to create something that's unique for this game jam, and I am glad you love it. We agree with you that the jump in this game really needs some work, we have an updated version (bug and jump fixes) of this game ready to release when the game jam officially ends. We do have some plans to expand upon what we already have, or maybe even make a new game that uses similar mechanics. Thank you for playing our game and I look forward to trying out your game!
This game is jsut beautiful. The art, the animations, the sound, and also really good level design! I am just impressed. Well done!
I am so glad you enjoyed the game, the levels in this game really took me a long time to design, I confused myself with these levels numerous times, but I am so happy that you had fun playing them. Thank you so much for playing our game and I look forward to playing your game!
Great game, I love it!
I just rated your game, maybe you can do the same on mine ^_^
I am glad you love our game, thank you so much for playing and I look forward to playing your game!
Great game!
For the jump part, you can make a Physics Material 2D with friction to 0 and apply that to the colliders from the player. This way, it won't get stuck in on the obstacle when trying to jump over it.
Hey there, thank you so much for the compliment and suggestion. We are aware of the jump problem in this game, and we already have an updated version of this game ready to release when the game jam officially ends. I’m glad your enjoyed the game and I look forward to playing your game!
Love the concept, the movement… not so much. I do like the idea and hope to see it improved in the future!
I am glad you enjoyed the concept. We agree the jump in this game needs a lot of work, we plan on releasing an updated version of the game when the game jam officially ends, thank you so much for taking the time to play our game, I look forward to trying out your game!
…And I can tell you that you will lose that feeling once you played it!, hope you prosper!
Amazing game. This game is so addictive I just couldn't stop playing and in the end wanted more :) Difficulty progresses very smoothly. Great job on that! Level design is super smart and idea is brilliant. Hope that portal leads somewhere nice :)
Thank you so much for the compliment, I am glad you had a blast playing our game, it feels really good to hear people enjoyed all the levels in this game. I look forward to trying out your game!
I liked the idea so much. I was ready for this to be my favorite game. And then I got stuck trying to jump from the boulder to the upper ledge (after having trouble with pretty much every jump prior) and was just unable to progress. I know that's not intentional. You're still getting high marks from me just for the idea and (most of) the execution alone. I'll come back once the controls are fixed. Amazing job either way.
I am so glad you liked the idea! We know the jump in this game is super frustrating right now, it will take a while for the players to get used to it, and we already have an updated version ready to release when the game jam officially ends, we hope you'll give it another try. Thank you so much for the comment and I look forward to checking out your game.
I did give it another try. I got to about three gems apiece and then, unfortunately, I had a gem stuck in the ground and couldn't get it unstuck. I absolutely see the appeal of this game. Ironing out bugs and design issues will be easy now that you have this strong foundation. The fact that you were able to get something this complex and innovative out as quickly as you did is a tremendous accomplishment you should be proud of. Again, I would love to see it once it's more complete.
I thought this was a really fun game to play and very innovative.
Thank you so much, that's what we were going for! I look forward to checking out your game!
oh ok, thanks :D
Really nice concept and i also like how its just one level that slowly expands as you progress. I went into a couple of bugs though, and even thought it was a way to solve a puzzle by changing the screen when a laser ball is midway transitioning through between screens, making them go in a offset and breaking the glass. Until i ended up accidentally getting stuck in the ground with that same method. Oh and mass producing boulders is a thing.
I’m so glad you like our concept, we agree that there are some bug within the game, we plan on releasing an updated version of this game when the game jam officially ends. That boulder picture was epic, impressive work. Thank you so much for taking the time to play our game, I look forward to trying your game!
Really cool idea and execution, however you have a possibility to get stuck when you switch the ground on which you stand and then you get stuck in the wall
Thank you so much for trying our game, I agree that this game still has some bugs, we plan on releasing an updated version of the game when the game jam officially ends. I look forward to trying out your game!
That is great to hear. Maybe you can implement some kind of rewind option as well, a lot of puzzle games have those.
A really great unique idea, executed very well! It was really fun to play
I am glad you thought this was unique, we tried very hard to make this game work. Thank you so much for playing our game and I look forward to playing your game!
Very original concept, good puzzles. My one thing would just be tweaking the colliders and/or the jump a bit possibly. I found I would almost get somewhere, but get caught on the edge and not be able to climb it, or the jump was just too short to get somewhere. I think if the jump just had a hair more power it would make the experience just a bit more fluid. But I love the quadrant idea and you used it really well.
I am glad you enjoyed the game super cat, an updated version of this game will be released when the game jam officially ends, it will address the jump issue. Thank you for playing our game and I loved playing your game!
I love this game. It's so much fun trying to solve this puzzle. This way you get Gems to provide more possible quadrants is awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed this. Great work!
Sadly, I buried myself in a pile of rock and couldn't get out lol! Poor mouse.
Thank you thank you! Loved playing your game too!
Very, very great game. First of all, this is something that I have never seen anything like before which is the most impressive thing about it. I really enjoyed trying to make it to the end and get through the portal. Took me about 30 minutes to get all the way through. Unfortunately, I could not figure out how to get to the portal at the end and ended up getting stuck on last brown square to the right because I jumped down before I moved the rock. Honestly don't know what the solution could have been there to get to the portal, I thought about it for a while. I wish there was a way to redeem yourself at that point, another way out of that last brown square to try again but other than that, I really enjoyed playing this game. The world needs more original games like this instead of re-make after re-make of the same few ideas. Nice job on this, very well done!
Thank you so much for the compliment, the game does have a few bugs, we did find some bugs and are working on a fix, an updated version of the game will be released when the game jam officially ends. The last part is a little tricky, I don't want to spoil it but I hope you'll give the game another try when the updated version is available.
Yea haha definitely understand that and I will for sure give it another go after the jam! Great job again.
Awesome job, this was tons of fun and I could see myself playing this for hours. The jumping was just a bit too difficult for me.
Thank you so much for trying out our game, we agree that the jumping needs some work, we plan on releasing an updated version of the game when the jam officially ends. I am glad you enjoyed our game and I look forward to trying out your game!
Yes, I do agree that the getting stuck on the wall when holding left or right and jumping was frustrating but I see you guys will get that worked out. Awesome!
Very fun and interesting puzzles would like to see this more expanded on in the future
I am glad you enjoyed all the puzzles, we are super interested in expanding this game. Thank you so much for taking your time to play our game and I look forward to playing your game!
Really clever design here, I liked the puzzles I saw a lot and the art is charming. Only critique I have is that the controls felt a bit frustrating at times. Particularly in the very start where you have to get the max height jump to just barely get over the obstacles, it made me wonder if I was doing the wrong thing or was just bad.
I am so glad you enjoyed the game. I 100% agree with you about the jump, we have an updated version of the game ready to be released when the game jam officially ends, it will address many of these issues. Thank you so much for taking your time to play my game, and I look forward to playing your game!
I was surprised how good this game is, really an interesting mechanic with a great level design. Even though im not much of a puzzle guy i really enjoyed it and was really fun. One of the most interesting games i played from the jam so far!
I am so glad that you enjoyed this game, these words mean a lot to me as I spent a lot of my time designing these levels (I was confused by some of the levels I designed). It's so great to hear that someone who's not really into puzzle games enjoyed this game, thank you so much for taking the time to play our game and I look forward to playing your game!
