Such a cool idea!
This game has one of the most unique ideas I have seen in this jam so far! I liked how we play the first half of the level and the rest with different gravities. It must be hard to create levels in this format, but I have liked what you have created!
The only thing I think that the game misses is more precise character controls. Although the platforming works, the controls sometimes feel unresponsive, and I think a platformer like this should have polished controls!
Apart from those, I'm glad that you have stuck with the geometric limitations of the jam and created your visuals around it. Overall, it was a beautiful experience!
Excellent job!

Geo BreakReally creative and fun game! I love how the movement changes depending on if you're upright or not! My only suggestion is to make the hitboxes more forgiving. Generally, making the player's hitbox a lot smaller than its visual can make avoiding hazards feel more fair in the player's eyes. The level design is really cool, and makes great use of the unique mechanics! Excellent job!

Pick a MathExtremely fun precision platformer! Definitely tough, but (mostly) felt fair. I love that there's a button that pops up if you don't figure out the glide mechanic, even if I took a few tries to figure it out even with it, haha.
Just about the only issue I've seen is that the hexagon and triangle levels don't have much contrast between the background and the level itself.
Overall a fantastic game! Well done!

Four-Sided FlurryI enjoyed it! I liked the color scheme, the music, and how you implemented the theme.
Good job!

Square In The DarkVery fun game and a good challenge! Had to physically move closer to my screen to see some of the platforms on level 2, but otherwise it was a joy to play, good job :)

Colosseum of ShapesReally smooth polished game. Love all the effects and the palate swap when you change to the other side. the music was also amazing. level 3 was kind of frustrating during the second half with some jumps in between hazards where I kept dying over and over again but maybe that's just me

The TowerI really liked the vibe and the pallets, I was kind of confused as to which color was killing me, but other than that, it's amazing

Behind you is the keyIt should be pretty easy to see what colour is killing you. I think you may have ran into a bug that I noticed after submitting where some of the platform colliders overlapped with the hazards and killed you if you landed on them at the right angle. Definitely something I'm looking to fix after the jam.
Glad you enjoyed the vibe though!
