How does your game fit the theme?
The game centers around a lizard who must scale a mountain, crawling across walls, ceilings, and cliffs. However, along the way, the lizard will also change size, scaling up and down to fit certain challenges. Lizards also usually have scales; that one might be a reach, though.

This is cute hhahaah. love it
It's very cute! The wall-climbing mechanic is very original, and I think the little lizard is super adorable. The music fits well, and the cinematics are beautiful—really nice overall.
Amazing bite-sized platformer, loved the end
Fun game, neat size mechanic. Best part about this game is the tutorial-less tutorial, very cleverly designed to teach you the mechanics without explicitly teaching you the mechanics.
Yess! This is what jams are about! Finished the game. It had an actual ending, a twist one at that. Good mechanics, well executed. The intro was nicely done! Not really a bad thing to say for a 96h game. Keep at it!
That's a great game, congrats ! Love the retro style and musics !
Great work! Game feels very mysterious. I like the puzzling aspect and mechanics. Very fun.
Lovely retro gameboy aesthetics which are executed to a high regard in visuals, gameplay and music. A short and sweet experience. Good job! :D
This is amazing!!
amazing style, music choice and overall coherence. very good job making a game feel full and complete, love being a goofy little creature running around climbing stuff
great little game, and huge respect to you as solo dev making something great! i'd love to see this size changing climbing combo explored more for even more puzzles
this is amazing. the best game i have found so far for this game jam. i loved this! respect! from start to finish. so good. well done
The art, sound, controls everything was built so well together.
This is a good tiny platformer. Only suggestion would be to have some background music. Other than that really amazing job!
The game has background music; I'm not sure why it didn't play. The only thing I can think of is that it won't work on a setup that doesn't support ogg files (like Safari browser). I apologize for the inconvenience!
This was a really good lil platformer. The climbing mechanics work great and the size puzzles were fun. The ending was also very nice. Great stuff!
Simple but well done: you did a great job scaling up the platforming we had to do, and I'm always a sucker for a GB game. Big fan of how you did the title drop
Really great game! Sound design is on point, all the mechanics mesh well, and that ending is great. Only complaint is that the movements felt a little slow at times.
That was amazing!
The game really pulled me in and I couldn't stop playing. It's quite engaging and I love the retro style paired with the really cute animations. The size changing mechanics were neat and the sounds were nice and never got annoying. The ending cutscene was just incredible and the soundtrack for it was as well.
Very well done overall! I hope we see this one in Mark's video!
PS: also you get bonus points for making a game about lizards
I enjoyed it. The ending is a masterpiece.
such a brilliant execution! loved it
