This game is fun to play :D. It takes a bit to get used to it but once you get it down its super fun to play. The part where you have to shoot the triangles in mid air had me stuck for a bit. The lighting and trail on the player look really good!

Developer

Thank you for your reply! Yea, we got a lot of complaints about the shooting mechanic being too hard. I am very sorry for the unbalanced difficulty for this game.

i couldn’t pass the 3rd checkpoint

It's hard when you can't see where you are going, maybe transparent platforms would help? Overall, a pretty good game.

Developer

Thank you for your suggestion!

The concept is good. I'm too bad to finish it with the number of life I have (I read why you add the life system). It's hard for me to be precise either on shooting and platforming at the "same time". It's probably a matter of habit. The aesthetic is classic but well polished. Music, and game feels are polished too. Great work.

Developer

Thank you for your comment!

We are sorry for the inconvenient shooting mechanism. We will do something better next time.

Thank you for the complement for the music and aesthetic!

Right in the beginning, I thought the graphics were really nice. There is definitely a lot of polish put into this. I thought the gameplay was pretty cool, but it was definitely challenging. The frequent checkpoints are nice but I didnt really like how their is a life system. I really had to go into gamer mode trying to beat this, but I finally did it in 97.07. Also I dont really see how it fits the theme.  Other than those small complaints, I thought this was very well made, so Great Job!

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback!

The life system is actually added to hide a bug. During the development period, we noticed that if the player keeps on dying and restarting, the game can get very laggy. We couldn't find what is making it laggy. So, we decided to add a health system to cover up this bug.

The game mechanic consists of 2 dimensions, aka two sides. when you go to the other dimension, you go to "the other side".

Wow 97.07! You almost beat my record.

Great Game, I'm not sure about the life system though? Maybe be more generous about giving lives if you want to keep the live system. I really liked the switching dimensions once I got used to it.

We have some small white diamonds throughout the level which you can collect to increase your life count. Maybe we should add more of that.

Wow, not many people like the dimension switching mechanic, especially when they are bound up to shooting.

Man, i wanted to play this game since I've seen it 2 days ago, finally I've give it a go!!

Well, first of all: Does the game really need a life system?? I don't really think it adds much to the experience really (I mean, it gives challenge who those that wants some, but in that case i thin it should be optional)

Then, I think it's a bit hard to shoot and platform at the same time, simply because you switch with the same button that you use to shoot, made especially risky that the fact that the ground can disappear right under your feet, it's not a good feeling. I suggest you giving a few frames when the player can jump even if it doesn't touch the ground (aka Koyote Jump, even tho it's often used for a different reason :P), Other than that it's a fun game!!

Music and artstyle are really, REALLY, good!! Good Job!!

We are extremely sorry for the inconveniences. Many people had complained about the jumping and dimension switching mechanism.

Thank you for your complement! The credits for the music goes to Thom Lucero.

I see: That's actually pretty smart way to handle it!! (^u^)

And don't worry too much, it wasn't a huge deal anyway!! Just a bit annoying, but not something experience-breaking!!

Developer(+1)

thank you for the kind words on the music and the great feedback!

Submitted(+1)

The looks are really great. I was caught off guard tbh. Didn't know what to do until I pressed the left click to try to leave. Then I got it. lol. The mechanic is really nice. The movement feels great. The music is nice. Well made overall. Just needs a little more feedback to tell the player what to do and what's happening.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I thought explaining the controls to the player is already enough for them to understand the game mechanics, I  will add a 'description' section on my game page.

Submitted(+1)

Its a really fun experience, a bit difficult for me although I am a noob but yeh a very good game

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing the game! I apologize for the game being too difficult.

Submitted(+1)

Its Really cool with a nice aesthetic, I think the one thing the game need is to explain itself more. I kept on dying because I could not see where the next platform was and I know that was probably the idea but in my opinion It  just adds unfair difficulty which could make the player annoyed or angry. Love what you did with the backgrounds and overall style of the game. Can't wait to see what games you make in the future  

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback. We will take your feedback to our account and make better games next time!

Submitted(+1)

nice graphics but i didnt even realize the triangles killed you straight away, maybe try and make that more apparent

Developer

Thank you so much for your suggestion! I will take that into account for the next jam.

Great game, and great idea, I wish the swaping was tied to a different button, rather than the shooting being on the same. I don't know if it was intended but sometimes the checkpoints fail and you are sent back to the beginning, which can be very annoying. I also wish there was a way to tell what would be different when you swap. good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing my game! 

About the checkpoints' failure: If you hit a checkpoint and was sent back to the beginning, it is most likely because your life is being used up. Your life count is visible at the top left of the screen. If your life is not being used up but was still sent back to the beginning, please make a reply, we will figure something out.

Submitted(+1)

haha it was because of the life being used, I just didn't notice lol. :D great game

Submitted(+1)

super good visual, light .  2 world changing is very cool  concept, the checkpoint... . only problem i see , it 's you cannot always anticipate  where you arrive in the other world, so i keep  falling down on holes.  so i feel there is less strategy.  very good looking game.

Submitted(+1)

Fantastic game, so much fun to play! Looks and sounds fantastic, nice & juicy jump and a great interpretation of the theme! 

Developer

Thank you so much for playing this game and giving such a positive feedback!
