I really don't like the camera rotating all the time, but the puzzles were nice. The art and the music are relaxing and it fits the game perfectly. good job ^^

Developer

Thanks for playing !!

I´m glad you liked it :)

I will fix that camera issue later

Submitted

Charming idea! Loved the art and music. The levels could be a little more challenging but keeping in mind that is a game developed in a 48hour windows is well done. Good job.

Developer

Thank you!!   :D

This could become a really good game, but I think the mechanic is not well used. Most levels don’t require the existence of two characters and are just “do x two times”, you should try introducing more challenges where one would mess with the goal of the other, or goals that they must get coordinated to resolve. Also, the levels rotation are quite annoying and don’t really needed to happen. I see great potential in it! Keep it up!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback !!

Concept is good. I like the simple model, color, particles. Vertical/Horizontal Moves  and Spinning camera does not match together, as we are force to correct trajectory just to go straight. I expected more cooperation between the two (but perhaps missed it, I did'nt play all the levels). Thought great game.

Developer

Thanks for playing !!

I think I'll make a free look camera, that would be great :)

i really like the music and the design ! i dont really have much new to add but like most other people i think the spinning camera causes a few issues with the controls and it makes a bit of nausea, but if i could also add maybe the two players could benefit from being a little faster ? so sections like the checkerboard-spikes level are a little less tedious, i think its a cool concept that you could easily expand on but itd be nice if the game was a little more forgiving.

Thanks for playing !!

Also, I will work on those things :)

I like the concept and the colors. But the screen would not stop spinning. It made me really dizzy. I wish there were setting to make the screen hold still. Other than that cute game.

Thanks for playing !!

You're right, I will change that camera thing :)

Submitted

It feels like nothing is stopping you just doing every character's part sequentially (would be great if one's movement somehow affected another).
But the controls are nice and the tune is catchy!

Developer

Thanks :)

I'm glad you liked it

I really like the visuals. If you were to continue or expand the project I would change a few things. The constant rotating camera made it hard to control my characters so I would try a fixed camera for a game like this. Also I would think about adding checkpoints too. Good visuals thanks for sharing this game :D

Developer

Thank you !!

I'm definitely going to improve that :)

Submitted

Pretty good, some room for improvement though. I only made it to level 6 before I got too frustrated to continue.

The good:

  • I like the visuals, simple but pretty. I’m easy to appease with glowy stuff.

What I’d improve:

  • The font in the beginning is difficult to read for me
  • Constant rotation of the camera makes the characters somewhat difficult to control accurately (have to sort of tap e.g. A-D-A-D to go in a straight line when the camera just happens to be diagonal at a given time. It also makes the locations of items hard to see properly. I would often try to pick up a key and fail because the character was in front of it instead of directly on top.
  • The spike platforms that hide and unhide are kind of annoying to wait around for, especially on the level with nothing but spikes. Most of the time is spent waiting for the spikes to disappear. And then go over the exact same thing but with the other character.
  • Could use some checkpoints or something. Quite often the player has to do a tedious set of operations (like wait for a bunch of spikes), make a mistake and have to do it all over again.
  • It might be more interesting if the characters had some sort of difference, either in level design or character design. The levels I got to play (1-6) often just had the two characters do the same exact thing but mirrored, first one then the other. No weaving between them required or any real interaction or careful planning.
  • The moving platforms slide under the characters. I’d personally prefer it if the characters moved with the platforms.

Overall, it’s an alright experience. I like the visuals but the level design and mechanics could use a bit of work.

Developer

Thank you !!

I really didn't think about all of those stuff but I'll definitely improve everything and also make some more levels in the future based on your advice 

Thanks for playing and giving me your opinion :)

nice game! I like the sound effects

Developer

Thank you !!

Submitted

I really liked the presentation and level design!

Is there a way to make the camera not move automatically? I got a bit nauseated after a few levels and had to stop. :P

Developer(+1)

You're right, I should've change that

I'm glad you like it :)

Classic gameplay but good levels. I also really love the visuals! They are pleasent to look at. The music complements the game nicely.

Developer

Thank you :)
