Really neat mechanic. I feel like this is something that could be polished and expanded on.
Thank you!
This is very well done. The levels are very interesting, and were pretty fun to go through. Great work!
Thanks for your feedback and for playing too!
This was great, I really love the splitting mechanic. I really hope to see more of this in the future and you're breathtaking too :)
Thank you, i am glad you liked it!
I really liked your game!
It's funny that we both had 'almost' the same idea (regarding the mechanics: moving two Characters at the same time (in different dimensions), trying to get to a Goal at the same time - that was my original intent... but in the end for the sake of time (and for not making the game more difficult) my team decided to allow the Main characters go across the Portal / Door even if it is not at the same time)... the difference in mechanics is basically a 2.5D vs 3D: and even that changed the whole game and perspective a lot.
Your game idea is very cool, and the Visual art + the Lighting work perfect together. For me the "Restart Level" menu was a necessity a couple of times... (I found myself bisecting the Levels and distances to be able to solve the puzzle : ) I got my: "You are Breathtaking" at the end.
I had fun, thank you for sharing your game.
Thanks for playing the game and enjoyed it, i really appreciate it!
I also noticed the similarity of ideas, when played your game, i hope you will continue to work on it!
Yes, I will continue working on my game.
I also hope you continue working on yours, as it is fun.
Cheers.
Great mechanics!, the models, music and the rest is also quite cool. I like the concept of the split and that the place you choose to split matters, super clever. Good work 🙌
Thank you, i am glad you enjoyed it!
I'm breathtaking!
In the final level, I often had an issue were merging caused the player to disappear entirely, or in one case the astral version didn't appear and then couldn't be re-merged. Other than that it worked great, I really loved being able to merge while in the air and getting pulled to a platform that neither the main character or their astral self would have landed on otherwise. :D
Thank you! Yeah, the level where you land on the platform by merging with your copy is my favorite too!
I will check this last level bug, several people have already encountered it.
Great job guys I enjoyed the art style very much :D.
Thank you!
Very cool idea, one of the best take on the theme! The level design is good and the movement feels very responsive, great job on that part. There seem to be some occasional bugs, but that's to be expected with such mechanics, in a jam. Nothing major to add, I really liked it.
Thanks for your feedback, i really appreciate it!
