Far beyond all the games I have played.

And this is my thing. ( I wanted to make a game like this but in the end I'm far behind )

I'm just shocked by this.

Awesome look and feel to the game. 

Although, I'm stuck at Galaxy, as it suggests in the sceenshots, the level dimensions don't actually change when I collect the bottom right triangle. Might that be  a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Developer

Hello, thank you for the comment!
Regarding the Galaxy level, have you tried pressing the right mouse button and dragging the level around? Note that you should right click somewhere within the level for it to rotate, this is because there could be multiple perspectives shown at the same time and only one can be rotated at a time

Oh I see. I did think of that because of the icon in the bottom right of the screen and I tried, but I was playing on a laptop without a mouse so the right click might not have been pressed.

That's a problem with my laptop not your game :)

I thought my game had juice. This is the level of juice i aspire to, great job. Got a lot out of a really engaging and fun mechanic, loved it :)

Very well made game! Super polished and the style is solid, the neon aesthetic is well done. I really liked the itch page, it fits with the style of the game and brings the whole thing together. Great job!

Really nice neon aesthetic

Maybe I didn't understand its connection with Scale theme correctly, but it doesn't deny the fact that I enjoyed the overall game and I think the idea of each level has a simple name and its structure is formed based on that name, was wonderful and I will definitely be inspired by it. Great job!

Very Well polished game. Really loved the aesthetics and puzzles! Great work.

Amazing work, the idea is really fun and the style is beautiful. The puzzles are just tricky enough and the difficulty rises appropriatly. I would have liked a little more info to fully understand the mechanics but I only got stuck on 2 levels so still very manageable!

A clever little game with a great consistent style and tricky puzzles that you don't see every day. Would love to get  a bigger, even more neon version of this. Also a thumbs up for  a great game page!

Really interesting puzzle. Really enjoyed it!

This is really interesting. Part of me was confused, but also I managed to still solve the puzzles even if I didn't fully understand what I was doing. Really creative idea and implementation either way- nice work!

Loved it! Sometimes kinda difficult to understand but still very polished and fun!

Amazingly polished game for just 4 days. Everything from the sound design to the music to the neon visuals are fantastic. And the game mechanics are insanely clever. My one complaint is that it would have been clearer in the multiple perspective 2D parts if there was some indicator on what direction you're looking at the level from. I found it a bit confusing to wrap my head around.

Developer

Thank you very much! I was thinking about better visualizing the perspective, but that unfortunately didn't make it to the jam version :(

Very cool take on this year's theme, fun puzzles and nice visuals. Only complaint is that the movement can feel sluggish at times, it's often unclear whether the ball is stuck or just resisting movement.

Developer

Thank you! Right, the movement towards the external bounds could have a more telegraphic feedback, that could help with better understanding player's current position

Submitted(+1)

Wow this is incredible! The vibes are so clean and the entire experience is completely cohesive. It's slick, satisfying, and really clever. That said, I definitely would have liked some explanation, especially once getting to the 'rotate the big cube lv in 3d' part - I knew it was something about getting the shapes of the triangles to line up somehow but not sure exactly. excellent sounds and killer transitions.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the kind words! Not sure exactly which level are you referring to, but I'm aware that this game is not best explained haha! I had some friends test it and I saw some mechanics are not so apparent as I thought during the development, but didn't have the time to fix it unfortunately (I know that every level is beatable at least, unlike in my previous game ;o)
