Really fun game I like the concept and I love that you can actually think of multiple tactics or different ways to get to the star so you can kill yourself in the next run

Now THIS is a game. Finally, I can show my daily life in real time with squares and triangles. 10/10 would get a highscore of 60 again.

Good game and excellent execution! I found I could cheese some levels by wasting a lot of moves early on, I wonder if adding a time limit would have prevented this.

Great game! Kind of similar to the game I worked on, although I like your take on it as well. You went more for fully swapping to the environments side than we did and I think it turned great!

Oh this is clever. Great job! It was especially challenging to prevent myself from completing it with just a trampoline.

Really nice concept! It’s surprisingly hard, but I love how it makes me think about how to solve the level in a sub-optimal way so I can stop myself and do it better next time! I love how it makes me think 😁

  • Enjoyment: Wow this is an amazing idea! It is fun on so many levels, like you gotta plan how to kill the round 2 you, but you also gotta think about how to not trap yourself for the next round. Amazing and keep working on it for sure!!
  • Creativity: Super creative~~~~~
  • Presentation: The graphics are super simple and clear, and it is very juicy!  If you can come up with a nicer color pallet and some cool/interesting backgrounds it would be perfect I think~
  • Neat game indeed!! Please check out my non-creative entry when you can :D

Incredible! Very clever idea and great execution. I love how you have nearly endless approaches for each level.

Congrat's! The idea behind the game is very cool. And the feeling of the controls are so smooth.

Well done. I recommend you don't make the levels too large, otherwise the player might get bored. Great game though! Check out mine!
