Really clever puzzle game! I like that the characters have their own abilities. The last part of level 6 was hard to figure out which is the perfect way to end a puzzle game. You should change the icon for swapping characters - it looks like Backspace but is Enter. Also I expected the teleporter to actually teleport the character and was confused when it didn't. It should be more clear that both characters have to stand in the teleporters.

I really enjoyed this one. The level design was excellent and the mechanics fit the theme well.

It's really fun and cute, plays like a flash game. Very cool =)

Awesome project!

Wow, best game I played so far!

Good game with pretty impact. I think a one screen multiplayer mode could add more fun.

Developer

Yes! First I gotta learn how to do multiplayer haha, but I absolutely agree

Good concept, very nicely put together!

My small critiques are:

  • The control explanation was slightly confusing (it took a few tries to figure out that the "swap" button was Enter, and using Spacebar to jump wasn't listed anywhere)
  • There was a bug where switching quickly in succession could lock the camera on one while the other is in control
Developer(+1)

Ah good catch! I never really worked with multiple cameras before, so I’m kinda surprised the camera switching worked at all lol. I’ll keep that in mind for next time.

Also, I completely forgot to add the space bar to the controls. oops haha

Love the game! Really well executed, lot's of content, every level had this small a-ha moment of discovering something. The only thing that felt painful to me is when I got into "reset" state, where I need to start from the beginning.

Very cute game with great execution!
Rom-Ba is pretty scary when scaled up!

Welp I tried to figure it out for a few minutes but gave up. Put the little guy in the teleporter, nothing happened, pressed e a bunch, moved him around the teleporter pressing e, brought the big robot over, more e, tried using the robot guy and pressing e on the little guy, using the little guy and pressing e on the robot, restarting and refreshing in case I was in a bugged state, but I basically never even started the first level I guess lol. 

Developer

now the way you described sounds like you hadn’t tried putting each of them in different teleporters at the same time?

(1 edit)

Is there a jump mechanic? I'm pretty sure I tried spacebar and other buttons to try to jump up but couldn't get either character to the top teleporter. Lemme know and I'll give it another shot later!

That's why I was trying to press e on each of the characters next to each other. I was guessing, maybe the big robot throws the little guy or something?

Developer

Yeah the little guy can jump with space, but the big guy can’t jump

Cool idea and worked very well!

Submitted(+1)

cool design and the game is clean, also the secornd robot remind me the villager. Five stars deserved

It took me an embarrassingly long time to beat Level 6, but I did! Really enjoyed the swap and size change mechanics. Great job! And I was bobbing my head to the tunes the whole time. Awesome work!

Submitted(+1)

very nice! i like the character changing and re-scaling! keep the good work!

Submitted(+1)

Its a cool idea, looks really well polished, love the teleporting and how heavy Rom-Ba feels.

Submitted(+1)

great art!

Submitted(+1)

A bit unstable but fun art.

Submitted(+1)

Top 100 def

Submitted(+1)

Honestly some really good levels! Took me a while to figure out level 6 lol. The art style is amazing, it all fits together very well. The audio works well too, really ties everything together.
