Love the aesthetics and feel of the game, and the switching between alternate worlds/dimensions is really sweet! It drew me in wondering who I am, and I wanted to figure things out and keep progressing. Unfortunately I died on some spikes and got stuck their. I tried for a few minutes to get the character to hurl away from the spikes, but it kept changing directions.

Overall nice work!!

Easily understandable due to the simple tutorials. Mechanically, it works. There was a moment when I died on the spikes, and the game froze upon death; no controller buttons worked anymore, and it didn’t reset the game, so I had to refresh the page.

I can’t say exactly how I managed to get this bug, but it happened.

The game feel is on point, it just needs some adjustments to the sounds so they aren’t so shrill. I would have liked to play more of the game, but I understand there wasn’t enough time. Congratulations.

Your tutorial was well thought out. The sprite was downright adorable. I loved the falling animation. Dropping the items when going through the portals was interesting. I was annoyed by it at first, but then realized you could do some interesting puzzles with it later. I hope you do come back and do more with this. I enjoy a good puzzler.

Lovely and squishy (I love a good squash and stretch!) and the sfx work in tandem with that very well! Checkpoints are generous and the game feels solid! great job!
