I had a lot of fun playing this one! Level 6 took me a few tries lol! Great job!
Thank you! I'm really happy that you had fun playing!
I had a good time with this little puzzle game. Clever mechanics and the art style was appealing to the eye too. Good job putting this together in only 48 hours!
That means a lot to me, thank you!
I really enjoyed playing this game! I hope you can add more levels somewhen :)
I'll definitely try to get more levels in soon. Happy you enjoyed playing.
It was kind of fun! I definitely would have enjoyed more levels. Good work!
Thanks! Yea I had more levels sketched out on paper. Happy you enjoyed it.
I liked the puzzles, you could definitely extend this :) thank you
I really appreciate that. I'm really considering spending some more time on this game.
A chill puzzle game! Loved it! It has the potential for more advanced levels too! Just one suggestion for the future, make sure the music doesn't reset every time I fail or enter a new level, because the music choice was great! Great job!
Thanks! That's super helpful feedback. I'll try to get that change in after the all voting is done.
Nice use of Thomas's teachings :) I'm sure he is proud. Nice use of the theme. The puzzles were interesting and fun.
Just a note... When Thomas put that music in the tutorial he said we could use it for the tutorials but we should contact "By Forever" for licensing if we wanted to really use it. Not sure if this counts because it is not commercial... but you might want to at least put in an attribution. Not sure how all that works. Likewise I don't know where Thomas got that ambient sound to know if we are allowed to just use it (It could be a free asset somewhere, I don't know - he never said where he got that one from).
Good job completing a game in 48 hours!!!!
Yea I've been learning a ton from the course. Still haven't checked out the audio section but I appreciate the heads up.
The original goal was to add my own music, and sounds effects. Just wasn't able to complete it in time.
But I agree with you. When I'm able to update the game again, I'll add my own sounds or give an attribution at the least.
Oh, I know, right!?! 48 hours wasn't enough time to do a lot of things LOL Your game is great though (not even just because it was completed in 48 hours!) I agree, I have been learning a lot from the course too, but have a lot left to go.
(*I just meant on the game's itch description, you could credit the music's artist. As a CYA type of thing 😎)
PS my kids loved your game too 😁
Wow that's so cool! I'm glad you both liked it. Don't know why I didn't think of just adding it to the page description. I'll go away and do that now. Thanks.
Wonderfully utilized assets, great responsiveness in the controls, a unique take on the theme. Good job man!
Thanks a bunch!
Nice use of the theme. Great looking visual and ambience. Good understanding of what kind of puzzles this could potentially have. I think it's a decent base.
You could spend a month or two on this project really coming up with features and puzzles. Different ways to utilize this core mechanic of dual control. In the end you'd have something meaningful and fun.
Good job!
Thank you! I'm on the fence about moving away from my current project to work on these concepts. Because I agree with you, there's a lot here that could be expanded on. I'll be making a decision here soon. Anyways, I'm grateful for the kind words.
Great game, would love to see some more harder puzzles!
Yea I'll have to try to find a good balance in future updates. Thanks for playing!
Level 6 was by far the hardest one for me. Great puzzle!
Haha, yes! I still struggle with Level 6. Thought about cutting it but happy that it's stayed, in the end.
Nice use of the theme, fun little game!
I'm really happy you took time to play the game. thank you!
This was awesome. Great mechanics, great atmosphere, interesting interpretation of the theme. Really nice work :)
You rock! Thanks!
Great job!
