Really cute character design! And nice concepts! I think the diamond things at the side should be controlled by the mouse wheel so you can have more quick actions like a jump and then a dash straight after if you wanted harder levels, I really really love this game and I would love to see it further produced! Great job!

Check out our game Only One Recruit if you haven't! I would really appreciate it! ^-^

Good idea! Thanks!Please follow us for more!

Your game is really complex for a jam game, there is a lot of content! Congrats! (Nice animations and polishment aswell)

Submitted(+1)

The idea is really nice. I wonder if it will work with harder platforming tasks like moving platforms, double jump and dash at the same time, or moving obstacles. However, game is well made and the levels show the potential of the idea clearly.

Developer

Great ideas! We'll try this on future versions (including mobile)!

The music was fantastic and the idea was really cool. My only feedback would be that the jump sound didn't really fit in my opinion, though it is a cool sound and could probably be used elsewhere in the game. Really great work though! Full marks!

Developer

Thanks! I agree with you, we're thinking how to improve.

Liked the concept, loved the visuals. That was fun!

Developer

Thanks!

Sound ans art work together nicely

Please check our too: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/461656

Developer

Great game, it has potential to grow!

Submitted

It's great, the level design really makes you alternate between the different mechanics, it works pretty well. Maybe the controls are quite confusing, maybe a key would been better to me more reactive, but otherwise, the result is really cool

Developer

Thanks! We're thinking about that, we don't want to be too easy neither make the player feel powerless.

This is pretty fun! Awesome sound design work with the game and the visuals are quite nice. I think the UI could use some polish, I had no idea that I could click on the crystal to move it and since it's such an important part of the puzzle mechanic, I would have liked it to be faster to switch. Maybe use the space bar or keyboard to switch between the abilities? 

Developer

Thanks! What would you do to the UI? We're accepting solutions and ideas.

Submitted(+1)

I can see why you mentioned sound, sound effects are awesome! I really like the one for simply changing the crystal too. Art is great too for such a short amount of time, well done!

Developer

Yeah, i agree, we loved changing the crystal haha

Your game is really fun! The sound design and screen shake are great. Please port it to mobile! If you don't want to, please consider talking to us, we would love to port it!

I really like the concept here! The suggestion by HedbergGames below to have all abilities triggered by the same button is an excellent one. Would love to see this idea expanded out!

Developer(+1)

Nice, thanks for the feedback! Follow us for new updates!

Excellent game! The controls and collision detection are a bit wonky in places but I loved having to maneuver between the 3 powers to get to the end of each level. I also really liked the graphic design and the color pallet just clicked for me. I could totally see you expanding this to a larger affair.

Developer

Thank you! We already have a better version waiting for the end of rating period. Please feel free to follow us to see more!

I have found the generator. It was cool being able to only power one ability at a time. 

Developer

Nice!

Fantastic game... hope this will grow  among the community...

Thanks!

Interesting game. The idea of swapping your moveset is pretty unique, but I feel like it would make more sense if the double-jump and the dash used the same button: then the crystals would be controlling what action that one button does, rather than feeling like an arbitrary limitation.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! The mobile version is just like you said! We'll post it on our page after the rating period is over, so please follow us for more!

Submitted(+1)

I really like the idea behind this game and could see it moving forward in to something bigger with more complicated puzzles to solve.  Controls/Platforming would need to be tightened up though, as it didn't feel quite right.  Great job!

Developer

Thanks Edocsil! Follow us to play newer versions after the jam ends! We're trying to improve the controls.

Submitted(+1)

I like the artstyle a lot, the controls feels a little strange, specially the jump. But the style and the concept are really cool!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! We're working on that!

The dev mentioned elsewhere in the comments that they learned a lot from GMTK and it shows here!  Lots of good, iterative level design based around their core mechanic and while I sometimes had to do a double-take to be sure I wasn't in the same room, I was pretty pleased with how well the game was teaching me things and reinforcing its lessons. 

On that central mechanic, I'm definitely a fan. Trading mobility for information is a compelling cost of doing business and I find it hard to criticize this game overall. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback! Follow us to play a longer version after the rating period ends! Your game lives up to your account's name hahaha congrats for the originality!

Submitted

Cool idea ! Cool game !
I was stuck on the second level until I realize the main mecanic !!
I guess I do know how to read haha.

Some interesting LD can be made out of that :)

Developer

Haha nice! Thanks! We are creating new levels for next week, follow us to see more!

Cool mechanics and a very effective tutorial. The movement felt a little bit stiff at times, and I felt like I was falling too fast. Good entry for the game jam!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

Nice game! It's a smart and good take on the theme. Plus you did some good level design, you let the player learn the mechanics in a safe environment to then curve the difficulty. Well done! One thing though, don't hard code the WASD please, it's easy in Unity to use the up, down, left and right keycodes to let players with a non-qwerty keyboard play comfortably :) 

Developer

Thanks Romain! GMTK taught us lots! hahaha

Up, down left and right are working too, we just did't put on the tutorial.

Did you submit too? Let us see!

Submitted

Oh ok! I must have not paid attention then. 

Yes I did : https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/462269 :)

The game looks decent and sounds great. I think the controls could be tightened up though. 

Edited comment because double jump started working on a different computer.

Developer

Thanks Ben! You can double jump by clicking on the spot as indicated to change the crystal to double jump!
