This is a fun game with a really creative concept! I agree with one of the comments that said that the sequence should be known at the start, but I also don't mind exploring the levels first without a goal. Good game

Submitted

Great game which makes you think more than you expect to! I love the idea of the player growing larger making it harder to enter areas as you collect more binary numbers. The only complain other than the ones already mentioned would be that I think the jump is a little too basic and could be improved for better game feel. Would love to see more levels!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! I'll take that into account if I decide to keep working on the game thanks!

Submitted

I really like how you get larger when you collect the 1s and 0s. I really think you should make it so you know the goal sequence at the beginning. Great job making this in 48 hours!

Thanks for your feedback! I'll definitely show the sequence at the beginning if I keep working on it past the jam!

actually very fun!

This is a pretty creative interpretation of the theme. It makes for a nice puzzle game. You have to think pretty carefully about which bits to pick up first, which I think adds a lot to what’s otherwise a fairly simple platforming game. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it !

Thanks for playing! Maybe I'll continue working on it past the jam!

amazing, I really hope that! <3

Unique and fun idea for a puzzler!

I love the mechanic that you grow by size, which makes you actually think and not just follow the combination needed - so the levels aren't as easy as they look in the first place.

Only suggestion would to give a way to see the combination at the start of the level, instead of me just rushing to the end, seeing the string, restarting and then thinking how to solve it.

Overall, super well done!

Thanks for your feedback! I'll indeed probably show the required outcome at the start in potential future versions!

Submitted

Loved it! The puzzles really give a moment of "Aha!" when you figure out which bits to grab first. The levels are well-designed, would love to see more of it!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I'm happy the puzzles worked as intended !

Fun little puzzle platformer! I wish there were more levels

Developer

I wish I had time to add more haha! Maybe I'll add more in the future !

Submitted

I like there are a couple of different angles to consider at once, like the order to get the goal and the size of the stack. Nice

Developer

I'm glad you liked it !

very creative! 

Submitted

Really creative concept. The levels were designed well, and I love how picking up the bits can be both good and bad. I think some music would really add to the game, though. Nice work on this!

Developer

Thank you very much! Okay I'll try to add some music next time!

It's a really interesting twist on the platformer-puzzle genre! Love that your objective might also block your path haha

Developer

Thanks for playing and for your feedback :)

Awesome game! Had a lot of fun and was definitely challenged on that last level. Felt good once I finally solved it. I like the take on the theme and the feedback from the sfx worked really well. This game was easy to pick up and did a great job showing the potential to take it past the jam. Great work!

Developer

Thanks for playing ! I'm glad you liked it :)

Genius idea for the game .10 / 10

Developer

Thank you very much :)

Submitted

Cool concept and fun puzzles, though it was a bit hard controlling the character.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Okay i'll take that into account for later game making projects !

Submitted

Fantastic puzzle game! I liked that the challege became apparent as you collected things and realized "oh, I don't fit everywhere". Would be nice to know what I needed before starting.

Developer

Thanks! Really happy that you liked it and good point about knowing the sequence right off the start!

Submitted

Cool premise, if you want to continue working on it later you might want to consider showing the required outcome at the start but its a neat idea and requires some planning, which I like.

Developer

Thank you very much! that'd be good indeed to know beforehand the correct sequence!
