Clever puzzle design on this one!

The game was really challenging, and you created many unique interactions with a simple mechanic!

I really had fun trying to complete those puzzles, I wish the game had arrow key support as well.

I'd love to see more levels!

Overall an amazing entry to the jam!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll definitely be adding more control options and levels post-jam. I’m very happy you liked it!

This is a really interesting and unique platforming mechanic, attaching to blocks of all sorts creates some really cool interactions, puzzles, and movement capabilities, it would be awesome to see this thing polished up and expanded upon! Great job!

Developer

Thank you! I’ll definitely be working on this more post-jam. I’m glad you enjoyed it!

This was such a clever game that seemed so simple at first! My partner and I enjoyed trying to figure things out, especially attaching to the moving platforms. My one struggle was the jump not being on W! I didn't think it would bug me so much but I kept hitting W instead of spacebar in all the critical moments. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m glad you both enjoyed playing! I’ll definitely be adding W as a jump button post-jam, I overlooked it during production. Thanks for the feedback!

Great game! Like others have said, the weakest part is the controls, particularly the jumping. That being said, this is my one of my favorite games from the jam so far. Attaching to the moving platforms was a lot of fun, particularly when traversing the tall areas.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I really liked the velocity mechanic! Flying through the areas when I got to the moving rocks was super satisfying! 

Developer

Thanks! I had many more cool ideas for platforming with shared velocity, but I ran out of time hahah

Clever puzzle game

Thanks for playing!

Really nice ambience! The music and cool colors really set a mood. Unfortunately I pushed the box down the wrong slope and couldn't push it back up. Some more thought could've been put into preventing the player from getting stuck like that. That said, theres a few places in my game where the player can fall and screw themselves from finishing as well, so I totally understand that in 48 hours we don't have time to work out all the kinks. Hope you keep making games, this was an great accomplishment given the time you had!

Developer

Thank you!! I think that’s the first box, right? You can bring it back up the slope by conjoining, then moving right and jumping continuously so it doesn’t slide back down, but I neglected to teach that in-game, haha I’m glad you liked it :)

I love this game. The idea was great and the puzzles were challenging but fun. It was all simple to understand and I really liked playing it. It could use more polish on the art and animation side but other than that its great! One of my favorites so far!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed playing! I’ll definitely be doing work on the art and animation post-jam :)

I do not see how it represents the theme

It took a little bit of time to get the hang of it but once I had worked out the controls it was a lot of fun.

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it!

A really cool and unique concept! Controls can be a bit finicky, though…

Developer(+1)

Thank you! And yeah, the controls could be better. After the jam I’ll make improvements :)
