How does your game fit the theme?
The role of the pause menu is traditionally to stop the game so you can go get a snack. I reversed the role of the pause menu so that you must use it in a creative way to reach the goal!
Did your team create the vast majority of the art during the 48 hours?
No
We used pre-existing art

Yes

Good presentation and interesting puzzles! INS3CTOR approved. Good job!
Wow! What a creative and clever game!
I love the idea of using the pause controls for more than one function!
It reminded me of the game "That Level Again"!
Some levels are a little too difficult, but the progression and level design are amazing!
Congratulations on the entry!
amazing concept!
Awesome game! All it really needs is more levels!
amaizing game, great concept, great execution, great presentation, sadly the game soflock after a level transition preventing me from prgressing :(
Oh Im sorry about that, it should have saved your progress if you reload the browser
i did reload after the softlock, but it didn't save my progress sadly
Dang, well i guess it still has its bugs :/
Really cool idea, love using the UI as part of the environment! Unfortunately I couldn't manage to get pass level four and accidentaly bought a tip for the wrong level :p
Very cool mechanics!
WOW! A crazy cool utilization of the theme, and a ton of neat mechanics. When I found out the zoom bar can resize your character I was blown away. And the hint system is an added bonus! I got stuck on level 8, so I can't even imagine how much more there is!
Extremely fluid gameplay and clever puzzles! I couldn't get past the horizontal stretch in level 10 though, still not sure how....
Type to push
Rally great idea. I see this making it into a full game. Great job!
Great idea! Well executed!
This is a really good puzzle game!
Good job! :D
Wow, such a great idea! The game feels very polished and smart. Great job!
Great idea, executed very well! I particularly loved the animation and sound design.
Congratulations, this is a very clever implementation.
wow this is incredible
Really lovely idea! I was blown away when i entered the "Options" menu. Great stuff!
Really creative idea that fits the theme. The game feels extremely polished and its impressive that you managed to create so many levels. Really great job!
Pretty creative idea, some of the levels were a little bit harder to understand but I love the concept :)
I like the idea. One bug I found was when you zoom in/out your character becomes microscopic.
Thats a feature not a bug ;)
Unfortunately my computer was having some trouble with this one, BUT I loooooove the concept. Using not only pause, but the menu options was a super creative idea, and I greatly enjoyed the couple of levels I was able to play:)
