Nice mechanic :)
What a beautiful art style, and mechanics. The sound was mellow enough to suit the theme. This is a very polished game. Great job man
Really fun puzzle type game you made, very smooth implimentation of the transition
I love the game is like sup games or game and watch games
(Retro games)
Nice game, I like the graphics
Great game!
Nice game and good puzzles!
Things I liked:
-love the visuals and animations - the squish of landing is so satisfying!
-puzzles were well designed and not too hard, introducing a few things at a time which was super cool and fun!
-even though there were no audio sounds for cues for the buttons, the visual indicator was a good solution that looked well and made it a lot easier to recognize if I was pushing the button or not- very clever!
-the last level was a cool way to end it!
Things to improve:
-coyote time (being able to jump even if my character is mostly off the platform - it gives the game a better feel)
-block pushing was tedious and not easy, especially with the level where you have to stack the blocks. That was not easy because the block on top fell off very easily
-not sure if the after image was intentional because sometimes it appeared, sometimes it didn't so it confused me and I was unsure if there was a significance to it, especially since everything is following a color theme, those after images really stand out and make me think they are super important which I do not think they are? Still not entirely sure haha
Overall:
I always enjoy a fun platformer, and I am a sucker for puzzle games so this game was made for me! Would love to see more! Amazing job for your first game jam, keep up the awesome work!
It would be super awesome if you could check out and rate my game as well!
Simple yet fun puzzle platformer! Very unique take on the theme. Great job!
Cute. My first death I got stuck in a room that I couldn't leave and had to reset the game. I only got to level 2 or 3 though and couldn't figure out what to do. It was a level with one set of spikes on the bottom left, a red QR code on the right and when you died there were platforms around what looked like a TV screen in the middle but I couldn't figure out how to get to it.
Other people have said they finished though so it must just be me!
I liked the way the levels switched when you died and I thought it was well polished
Really cool! I finished it :D
Excellent entry! All in the game is very polished and the ambiance is great. The mechanic of dying suits very well the theme and is brought step-by-step with the levels. Great job!
Really fun little puzzle game, love how you used the theme of the jam as a mechanic in you're game
Really neat puzzle game. the control and movement feels good and the SFX complements it, maybe add some background music so it's not too silent :). Great job in this Jam!
It sounds good! i added some music, hope it fun better. thanks for the input. have a good day!
What a fun little game! This is a really cool tileset, I didn't know about it before. Great job!
Loved it! Simple to pick up, nice mechanics, short and sweet! You did really well, I enjoyed solving these puzzles.
Great job! It was very "Meat Boy"ish, but with a twist. I really enjoyed playing it!
Congrats on your first gameJam submission! This was a really awesome little puzzle game! I’ve rated your game. I hope that you’ll check out and rate my submission as well. :-)
Nicely done. I enjoy playing the game.
Nice little puzzle game with good controls. Easy to pick up, just needs some VFX polishing and it could be a full product for sure
