Very fun game, right level of balance between complexity and ease of playing that it does give you feeling of progression with variation of tools. a good level editor can be added leading to so many possibilities to create in combination of tool and level designs.

This game executes a 2D platformer with a twist very well. I wish there was a little bit more in terms of audio flare, but the gameplay is solid and the gimmick is pretty manageable. The idea of cycling powerups is interesting, but I wonder if some levels may be bricked or impossible with certain powerups versus others? I played for about 20 minutes and didn't encounter this problem, but I do think that may be something to consider if you decide to continue development.

The visuals are well done too, with a consistent, neat pixel art vibe that makes the game feel a little more retro without sacrificing quality. All in all, this is a solid game. Great job!

This game is sick, I love it. The use of the theme is amazing, the art and sprite work is fantastical. easy enough game, with cool mechanics. Personally, i rarely try games that arent on the web, but this one was worth it. I hope this wins the jam.

Amazing job, you should be proud

This was dope! Random tools makes this hard, I'd much prefer to see hand crafted levels for each tool like the tutorial.
