How does you game fit the theme?
My game fits the theme "You're Not Alone" because it is a co-op game. My game uses the theme to remind the player that not all tasks have to be done alone. You must use each character in game to solve the puzzle.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I have written all the code + assets from scratch. I have never made assets before, usually using pre-made assets. I stepped outside my comfort zone for this jam.

So this is Fireboy and Watergirl but worse in pretty much every way.
The audio is lazy, the graphics really hurts and the gameplay is even worse.
Also the switch is pointless in level 3 and 5.
Solid puzzle game with some interesting mechanics! Would love to see possible future updates, good job!
P.S. - If you could rate my game, I would appreciate it. If not, could you rate some games in the “least rated” category to help them out?
Lots of useless stuff in some levels (like the lever in level 3 or the key + lever in level 4), maybe with more time you could have done a better level design but that's ok.
Nice little game otherwise.
Nice game. Simple concept and fun mechanics. The music was not great, but the game itself was good. Check out my game too.
Very nice game
Pros: Excellent concept and idea Excellent mechanics
Cons: Music that can be improved A little simple sprites
Overall it's a nice game and I enjoyed playing it, great job!
Great idea, liked the puzzles. Only needs some fixes like the labels on top of each other. Some polishing and this is a great game!
I'm glad you stepped out your comfort zone! Kudos! Love your game idea. Playing two characters at the same time works surprisingly well and it's actually really fun to control both characters at the same time running through different platforms. I can see this being a coop game as well but single player is fun too. The puzzles are interesting. The sound effects are unfortunately a little loud compared to the BGM, and maybe a less spooky BGM would've been more appropriate too. But great job overall!
Creative concept! Took me a little bit to figure out they couldn't jump the same distance and how to use the controls. It got quite difficult and I got very stuck at the first switch - I got the red in, but once the switch was on, I wasn't sure how to get out. I'd recommend adding a slower progression to the difficulty to ease the player into learning their new skills.
Congrats on this being your first game you completed! That's a huge accomplishment and I hope we see an entry from you at the next game jam!
I really liked it, nice work. The levels did feel a bit cramped however but otherwise I really liked it.
Cute game, the thing of having one player's jump be bigger than the other's is an interesting idea but I could see it getting frustrating especially if played co-op instead of one person controlling both.
Very cute game! Yeah, very fireboy and watergirl. The music for when you lose might be a bit too loud compared to the game loop music - makes you jump the first time.
I like the sound design, fun game! definitely reminds me of fireboy and watergirl haha, I'm not sure if this is a bug because of webgl but my red player had a small jump compared to the blue one! had to do a bit of trickery to get thru the levels but it was fun, tutorial text was very informative and well done. Great job!
Check out my game too if ud like! :D
Nice game! The movement felt good, and the coop puzzles were nice. I was hoping for games like this!
