Noice game! Hope to see you in GMTK 2025!
Thank you! Hopefully yeah! :D
I love everything about this but I have to say, the best part about it is the controls. Really smooth.
Thank you very much!
Amazing game and level design! I would love to full play a full version of this!
Hi! Thank you very much for the support! We’re definitely planning on expanding this after the jam, especially considering there were so many features we didn’t get to add, and did not have time to polish the art/ had no UI either haha. Glad you liked it! :D
Super solid platformer and interesting level design. You did a really good job of taking a simple mechanic and creating interesting puzzles. Nice work
Thank you very much! :D Glad that that part worked out as that was our main goal for the jam! :D
This was fun! Really solid character controller and the three different sizes all fit into their own roles super well, great work <3
Thank you for the support! :D
This game is a fantastic game and I enjoyed the puzzle solving aspect a lot!! I'll come back to play it later!!
Featured on today's stream!!
Saw your stream! Thank you very much for playing it on stream! I believe you were very close to finishing it haha, as we didn’t get to build more Han 3 levels for the jam. Thank you very much for the support!
Cool and stylish platforming.
I wish you good luck in development)
Thank you very much for the encouragement!! :D
The gameplay and art style is fantastic! Fits the theme well, and who doesn't love a play on alice in wonderland? Nice job!
Thank you for playing!! Haha definitely! The amount of Alice themed games I've seen in this jam is astonishing LOL
Very cool puzzle platformer. Makes good use of the size changing mechanic
Thank you for the support!!
I liked the art style and the music! The game wasn’t working for me with the default controls. It was a good idea to include key binding. I had to change it a couple of times to find keys that worked. For some reason, WASD, R, and E didn’t work without binding.
Thank you very much for playing! Do you mean that it was bugging, or that the controls as WASD wasn’t intuitive? (Cuz I share the sentiment LOL, me and WASD don’t match well)
If it was a bug I’ll let our dev know!
I meant the controls didn't work until I changed them, like the character didn't move
Ok, thank you for clarifying! I’ll pass it on to our dev 🙏🫡
Very intuitive and cool concept! Amazing game!
Thank you!
I’ve seen a lot of games about changing size, but I think this is one of the first ones I’ve seen that frames it as a speedrun! Changing sizes feels so fluid! I’m sure people are going to optimize this movement to within an inch of its life (and I mean that in the best way)!
Thank you very much for the compliments!! Initially got this idea from a stealth+puzzle aspect since we figured a lot of people would take it more from an action point, but it ended up turning into just fully puzzle since we didn’t have any time at all to put in any sort of enemies. And speed running is definitely encouraged! Honestly the most fun part of the replays once you know all the answers to the puzzles! I have a friend who got it at 3minutes and 10 seconds and that’s the best record I’ve seen so far haha.
Really like the visual design of it! Some of the background objects that are not part of the platforms might be perhaps a bit too bright so it was a bit confusing at the beginning but I got used to it pretty fast. Also appreciate the fact that you can remap buttons!
That’s very valuable feedback so thank you! I used a color palette to draw this and I think it ended up limiting the colors for the assets and made it confusing with the background not being as dark as it should. Plus a lot of the items were meant to be Interactable but ended up being background due to lack of time 😅
I’ll definitely implement your feedback once game jam is finished and we continue making it, so thank you very much! Thank you for playing as well! :D
Cool game concept :) Congratz
Thank you!
It was a pretty good game overall. The mechanics were not bad and the sounds were decent.
Thank you very much for playing! :D
I liked the 3 different character designs, great game!
Thank you for playing!!
Very neat game, the character's controls feel very smooth and good, the puzzle mechanics are pretty neat, and overall it's just a cool game. Would've liked to see more usage of small form since it only really feels like it's used to get around level design (like with the buttons) rather than being an integral part of the game, but still pretty fun to use all three and move bookcases and run through levels.
That was a really good point! I think she ended up being a stealth mode unconsciously.
If you have any suggestions for what she can do in small form, let us know!
Thank you very much for the feedback!! Really appreciated!
Great game, nice style, level design is good. Would like some checkpoints, because levels are pretty big and it might take you a long time to reset.
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
We do have many checkpoints upon death, but I guess the R resets the whole level instead hmmm. Do you recommend we add another control where it resets only until the heck point?
Very nice, love the art and use of the 3 different sizes. Great work!
Thank you for the support!!
This is a super solid and well made game. The art is beautiful, the movements are polished, the puzzles are simple to understand without being too easy. Great work!
Thank you very much! Happy that you enjoyed the puzzles :D
