Very creative game! I would like to see more of it, more levels and mechaincs. Art style looks incredibly appealing and fresh, liked it a lot. There is a bug when you stand too close to disabled robots, the arm can swap your head too early, that results in you being stuck inside of previous disabled robot, and game softlocks. Also, text and math puzzles are interesting, but does not much about head-swapping, maybe you could use more classic puzzles with buttons, lifts and pushing boxes, but focus more on head-swap mechanic. Simple guiding each other through narrow bridges, enclosed corridors and timed lifts/platforms would work super well, I think. Anyway, great game for a 48 jam, thanks!

I have no words to describe how impressed I am by this game. Not only is the concept is amazing BUT YOU MADE MULTIPLAYER IN 2 FRICKING DAYS HOWW?? Had a lot of fun playing this with my brother wanted more levels. Seriously man make this a steam game I'd pay for something like this. Why isn't this in top 10 popular this game is super underrated

Pete Stopper RE-FUELAmazing to see a two players game in the challenge, very creative. This design reinforces a lot the role reversion theme. Good job! <3

Input To ActionMaking an online multiplayer game in a Game Jam! That's truly astonishing! Even though the highest setting is to find another friend to play with you. After a lot of effort convincing my roommate to play with me, the game was quite good! Kudos to you.

Dungeon of Ancient GodWorking multiplayer in a game jam is crazy, and I love this implementation of the theme! Gave it go and had a mind-bending, but fun, time. Great work!

Jurassic FrogI don't have the time to set up for a multiplayer session right now, but this looks very cool. Tried to boot it up just myself with myself and it looks stunning!

A great concept for a game, though too bad I don't have someone to try it with :( . Maybe you could explore making a singleplayer version after the jam

I tried it with a friend, and honestly, it was an incredible and fun time. We were blown away by the fact that you made an online game in a jam. It must have been a lot of work. We would love to know how you managed to make the server one of the players!
