Very cute /cartoon art style, love it!! Pretty fun to play & I love the use of mechanics with the theme! Great job on this :D

super rad!! camera in the small state jittered in ways that were challenging, and I got stuck on the last door becuase I didn't go close enough to see it was a small-state puzzle - otherwise really enjoyed this take, would have loved to see more movement that relied on being big

Pretty fun! i liked how you made each door into a puzzle for the smaller form, although it felt as if the bigger form might be a bit too big, since you almost cant move when you are bigger. but still interesting take on the theme, and i liked it. Good job!

Super clever! Love the character and the animation style! Great job!

Like the idea. I like the cartoonish character. Movement felt a bit stiff (dash most particularly). I like platformers that flows very well.

I had a bug that I reproduced: pick up the 1st box, size down, size up right away. From there, I can't drop the box anywhere anymore, my mouse is stuck with it forever.

Very fun, I love all the character sprites and the puzzle elements are solid

Really excellent job here! Great use of the theme. The visuals are beautiful and cohesive. The puzzles are interesting. The only complaint I have is that the combat elements felt unnecessary and not much fun for me.

The camera view is so hard to see when you're in the smallest state. Overall the game is really smart and requires a sense of skills. Good job!

Ah this art style is so cool! I soooo wished there was a sound for growing up or becoming small! Loved the overall mechanic, I struggled a little bit with the level design, but I enjoyed it! Keep it up!
