Oh no ... brotli / gzip compression strikes again. (https://itch.io/post/1985533 and https://foxxthom.medium.com/unity-2020-webgl-freezing-at-90-357e1346aec6 have some info on what you're encountering, just set compression format to none)

Either way great game!  (Edit: currently the way the download is provided breaks jam rules ... is there any way you could have (before the jam ended) uploaded a downloadable to itch instead of linking to another file ... ?)

Interesting gameplay! But I figured that I can just hold mouse clicking to let the player go through without placing them, kinda cheating haha. Nice music too. Please check out mine as well!

I wasn't able to play, but I watched the youtube playthrough. The visuals are very charming, reminds me of

Unfortunately, the game is not playable on the web due to some upload issues. But the download link is in the comments if you want to try it.

Really cool! Reminds me a lot of my first game jam game from last year... it is terrible(XD).
I also want to say, that I really like how many different elements you have in your game.
Nice job!

*Though I have one question. Is it actually legal to use music/soundtracks from existing games like you did(hopefully Nintendo won't sue you for DKC; XD). I am just asking because sometimes I would really like to use some tracks of games that I know in my games.

Thanks a lot for your nice comments. We did our best in 48 hours and we are glad that you like our game.

Regarding the use of music, we used ready-made sounds as we could not find the time to make background music in just 48 hours, we use it only for jam. Using copyrighted music in a commercially released game can cause problems. But unfortunately, we don't know much about this subject. We suggest you research this topic. 

Thanks again for your comments :)

The 1bit look is so good, animations are also great. Its really unfortunate that we cannot play, but congrats on building something so cool either way!

Watched the video, looked really cool, liked the roles reversing mid gameplay rather than as a whole, good job :)

Regarding the error, I had the same issue with the game not running in the browser when I first uploaded, this sorted it for me. Go to:  Edit -> Project Settings -> Player -> Publish Settings -> Compression Format and change it to "Gzip". I dont think you can do this now but for future reference :)

Thanks a lot for your comments. We will also make your suggestion to fix the problem, we cannot upload it now, but we will definitely update it for the future.

It's also not noticeable in the video, but when the roles change, the character goes into hypnosis and loses control. This was something we added to give roles reverse effect. You become the maker of the platform, not the player.

If you want to try the game, the download link is in the comments, by the way. Thanks again.
