Interesting concept, not really challenging. A bit simple for me.

It's very simple yet very enjoyable. The music fits perfectly with those little cute Poctoids. They have very fun walk animation. Pretty unique take on the theme. 

Well done.

Awesome little game. Worth the bandwidth to buffer it. Would play again.

I really love the simplistic artstyle, its very cute!

But are you controlling only one Poctoid or all at once :PhlihsophicThinking: 
Its a very cool mechanic!

Haha, ye it felt good when I planned it but it was kinda a hit and miss. Glad you liked it though. 😁

Also about an hour before submission I realized I should turn it into a one button game. So when you press once they start moving, then another press of the same button turns them around and they never stop until you finish the level.

As others have said, definitely a sneaky little please surprise, with a calming aesthetic.

This was a fun surprise, simple and engaging to see all that symmetrical movement.

Fascinating game. It's joyful to see all this little creatures gamboling. Pretty simple mechanic, but playing with the distance make it deeper !

Interesting game!

The main mechanic definitely seemed very simple to begin with but as the levels went on it began to reveal a lot of gameplay depth that I had not seen coming at first glance.

I really enjoyed the music and the simple yet stylized artwork.

If i had to give some feedback I might say that the theme of the jam could have been expressed a bit more strongly but all in all you have a very engaging game here.

Thanks for making it!
