This is a unique take on the two characters being bound together, I quite like the concept, it opens the way for some really interesting challenges, all it really needs is some improvements to the physics of the ship and magnet to at least make them more predictable in how they'll behave. All in all a fun game, nice work!

A lot of the submissions have player characters tethered together. This game uses that mechanic in an interesting way. Having each ship move in in perpendicular direction added some unique challenges.

The art is really cool and I think the way the characters are linked but each controls a different type of movement is really cool! It was kind of hard to manage the magnets because they didn't completely stick but still cool puzzles! 

Using individual characters for movement along the two axis is a great idea! You really have to think about the right inputs to go where you wanna go.

Cool game. Nice sound and soundtrack!

It's interesting. I like the idea of having specific walls for the blue or orange character.

Neat little game, I've seen a few like this where you control two characters. But limiting the direction for both was clever and made it more fun and understand. 

My suggestions, have the cube pickup better, bigger, and once on platform it stays.

Make the spikes more clear too, as the pink mixes with the purple bg.

This is a very creative idea, I like it. I like how the music changes on each level too. I would have perhaps changed the magnet key to not be so far away from the other controls! 

Other than that, great game!

Really interesting concept. Easy to understand hard to master. I think it would have been better not to have to hold the "t" button down. Good job overall.
