Super cool, super polished, your teams stuff is always so good! Really the only critiques I have are the handful of bugs you're already aware of, and that controlling the size of portals is a bit odd but I don't really know how I'd change that - maybe have buttons that can cycle through available portals so you don't have to click and drag?

QuantumScale ChambersIt’s a very well-made puzzle platformer! There are quite a few puzzle platformers that use size mechanics this time around, but the puzzles in this one were really well-designed! Aside from occasionally getting stuck in the portals, everything was great!

Marine Race Built to ScaleFantastic submission! It's a really clever take on the theme that works very well. There were a few points when pushing a 4x block into a portal it wouldn't go all the way through (it looked like because there was a wall behind the portal), but not a big issue at all. For some of the later puzzles, solving them was fun, but actually implementing the solution often took a bit longer than I was expecting. Probably my favorite game of the jam so far. Thanks for making it!

GrandcestryNot a fan of the mixeling, but the art is rad! Good variety of puzzles, using the portals to rescale objects is a great use of the theme, and the music is a bop! Good stuff.

Nine SliceThis was a lot of fun! I liked how there were constantly new ideas being introduced, so the game never got boring. All the levels felt pretty well-designed, too. Great work on this!

Key To Successit was a very refreshing usage of portals. I tried scalling myself multiple time. ❤️ love the aesthetics and the music. The level difficulty was nicely arranged, helped me understand the challenges seamlessly.
