Nice game, I enjoyed playing the game. My only suggestion is to improve a little bit the graphics. Overall a great game. Well done.

Submitted

Very fun and clever gameplay! a really good execution. would have added a small tutorial though.. and maybe a restart button.. other then that a great game! really nice job!

Developer

There is a restart button, it's R and can be rebound in the settings. I guess that reinforces the need for a tutorial lol

This is a really interesting interpretation of the theme! It is a tricky puzzle game, but I found it very manageable, which is a positive cause I am not the best at platformers. Your graphics could do with a cleanup, and the level transitions can sometimes cause problems, but for a jam game this is excellent! 10/10 IGN

Cool gameplay! I like the music! I like the idea, but I feel like the switching was too fast. Maybe my reaction time is just slow haha

Developer(+1)

Do you mean you're required to switch the blocks too fast, or that the transition happens too fast?

Submitted

The transition happens too fast for me

Submitted

A very mature game mechanism, but it's a bit difficult to me . If the character itself can change, it would be even cooler!!

Thank you! You can change some of the controls in the options menu if that would make things easier

Submitted

u can try mine if u want ~

 I will when I have time

Submitted

neat concept, having to keep coins around to use as platforms etc. The options button didn't seem to work for me on Windows though. And crashed on the moving platform level. But did want to play more.

Thank you!

Hello! i found the concept great, I think having the default switch button be something more intuitive for the more precise parts would have been good. but really its impressive for  48 hours and the music is good as well.

Thank you for the feedback. You can change the switch button in the options menu.

Tried the game and it’s really good! Good use of the art and sprites, the gameplay was fair and overall it’s a solid entry.

Submitted

Pretty fun game ! ! ! The visual style is one of my favorites in the jam ! !

Thnk you ! !

Submitted

That was fun! Really cool concept. I didn't like "tab" being the swap button because I naturally wanted to play with two hands for the levels where you had to time the jumps with a swap. It also crashed after a few levels. But still very impressive. Well done! 

You can change the swap button in the options menu

Cute game and great concept, it fits the theme really well. The music and art is nice as well. Almost every level I had to reset because I had picked up the wrong coin. One thing that could have made it better was maybe if the music switched when you switched between blocks and coins, kind of like the P switch in New Super Mario Bros. The crashing was unfortunate but other then that, I like it!

Great suggestion about the music! Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

No problem. Btw I would really appreciate it if you could check out my game :)

The mac version doesn't seem to work...

Submitted

Oh yeah, sorry about that, I did something wrong while distributing. I will remove the mac version.

Ok. I'll tell my friend, who has a Windows computer, to give it a try

Submitted

Thanks I really appreciate it

Developer

Haha mac loser, use a real OS that costs $60 and does absolutely nothing different from linux

Submitted

The effect when swapping looks nice.

The crashing on the later levels is unfortunate.

If the game crashes you can use level select to go back to where you were
