I love it! Intuitive and feels real good to play! I found it fascinating how well mouse aiming works with this perspective.

Great game!
Puzzles are very well designed and love the design of the character and levels.
Only thing I would have liked to see is some shadow cast from the player just to make positioning more clear during the platforming / jumping moments.
Overall, really enjoyed this.

Cargo on the ScaleNice work! The level design is simple, but elegant and the physics-based interactions don't detract from the puzzles. I particularly like the choppy character animations--kinda reminds me of stop-motion.

Percy's Pulsating Plasma sPheresHey great job! We have similar mechanics, but I think your systems and puzzles were done better.

Scalar ShamanGreat game. I love an art in it. A limit of scaling up is a really clever machanic.

Size spaceshipReally enjoyed the main mechanic! Really only gripe I had with it was rolling the spheres could be slightly finnicky but otherwise it worked super well, and I'd love to see it taken even further!

Extendo Archipelago - GMTK 2024Very well made game, especially in terms of looks and polish. The core gameplay mechanic was interesting, but it was a shame to not see it pushed super far - it never felt like the levels were difficult at all either. That said, it flowed very well from one level to the next and was overall a very high quality game.

EvergreenReally incredible! I really like the little twists where you have to juggle your scale meter between different objects. My only thought is that having scale-down and pull on the same input felt a little strange.

Manipula Moving Co.Love the art style and the camera movement around the player when he moves around the level, nice polish done!
Levels are not too difficult, good learning curve!

MuscleManiaGreat camera and puzzle mechanics. The art style worked really well for the project and I'd love to play more

Scale SwipeCool! I loved the fixed camera, and the mechanics were cool. It was a bit easy to figure out the solutions though, leading to moments where I knew what I had to do, and only had to go through the motions. Lots of potential here!
