Great work on the puzzles I was stumped a few times with this one. I also really really liked the music.

Nice puzzle game! I really enjoyed this one and I thought the level selection screen was really great. Great job!

Developer

Thanks!

Awesome idea that the enemies move together with the player :D  Makes it extra fun to try and figure out how to solve the puzzle!

Developer

Thank you!

This is a well executed idea! I've seen simultaneous-movement-puzzles, but abet is made distinct by also moving enemies around, adding a different layer to the puzzle. Also really liked how the level select screen gives a preview of what the level looks like!

As far as feedback goes, the only thing that would have been nice is some sound effects. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks! Sure, I would have liked to make some SFX, but it was way, way down the priorities list. Next time.

Very nice game! I love the puzzles and how quickly I understood the mechanic! Great interpretation of the theme and it's nice to have this mechanic be played with! Great work!

Thanks again! Or is this another member of the same team?

Submitted

Sorry yea! IT was 4 of us on the team and we are all reviewing games! Clearly we enjoyed it!

Developer

o i c. I think you might be overwriting each others' ratings, if you're all sharing an account. Oh well.

A very cute little game! I absolutly loved the visuals and music. It was a little bit weird, that the level resets, when the two creature bump into each other, but I really enjoyed playing it.

Developer

Thank you! I guess that was just the first thing that came to mind when I thought of "enemies," i.e. they would "kill" the player and force you to start over. What would you expect them to do?

Submitted

Maybe give first some sort of an effect to signal, that the player is dead? I just found it bit confusing.

Developer(+1)

Good to know. I did consider that, but with the amount of time I had left I called it "good enough." I'll keep that in mind for future games, though.

This game is really well done, nice job!  The movement of the characters is really smooth, I think you nailed the speed.  I also like that the level instantly restarts after a critical mistake so the a player can get right back into the game.  Nice job :)

The best game I've played so far. Simple concept and execution, but both are for the advantage of the game. It really made me think for a while, love it. Rating it high high.

If you have time, check out the game my team worked on (I did the music): That Time I Was A Slime In A Dungeon by UnevenPixelStudios

Developer

Wow, thank you! I'm glad you liked it so much.
