Thoroughly enjoyed myself. The soundtrack was a jam.
Great job on this game! Really polished and clever game!
To be very picky, i would have liked it to be a bit more challenging to clear the levels to keep me interested :P
Very strong puzzle design. Good job!
Thank you very much!!
Great entry. Really appreciate the generous checkpoints.
This is really well polished! Some great art and puzzle design, and I really liked the background music as well!
Great art style, plays really well. Love the use of changing size to solve puzzles. Really well done! :3
really dig the art style!! the puzzles were challenging enough to complete and its rlly cool overall!
Only have great things to say about your game, such a good submission in the timeframe it was created! I love the ability the chance size midair and gain extra height on the jump, super cool mechanic.
Thank you very much!
Ah yes, the “inheriting previous size’s properties while size changing in midair” was something we really wanted to play around with and purposefully put in there, as we were hoping to hide some parts where it was only accessible this way. We sadly had to nerf it for the jam as it was breaking some of the puzzles haha.
Many great things to say about this game. The music is really nice and also the art style is quite clean. Overall the game looks super polished which is really impressing. I also enjoyed the puzzles and liked the difficulty curve of the levels. So yeah, really really nice experience.
Very strong submission, the theme is clearly key in the game, it's balanced, there are few mechanics but were used very well to create interesting puzzles with growing difficulty. Very good art, level design and game idea
Thank you very much for the support! :D
Very nice game. I really like the pixel art and the puzzles.
10/10
Ty for playing!
I like that you have to change her size frequentely in the level and to move the bookcase around. Even if the mechanics aren't a lot the game is well done and really fun to play. Less is more! :)
Thank you very much!
And I definitely agree! We do plan on adding more mechanisms later on, but def gonna do it slowly through different levels rather than all at once! As long as the core mechanism (change size) is simple then it’s easy to use!
Thank you for playing! :D
Just a bit sad that the mini Alice doesn't go below the arrows. Really funny aside from that, without being too challenging to be blocked
That is a good point, and I think a few ppl (including testers during our game development moments) pointed this out. I tried to dodge it initially as well 😂 We didn’t have time to expand on this for the jam, but definitely plan to after, so there are different projectile types and that arrows are dodgeable when small.
thank you very much for the feedback!
I really like this game! The attention to detail is amazing, like how Alice has special sprites for each size or how small Alice doesn't trigger buttons. On top of that the music and art is just really great.
The art style is stunning and the level design is fun and challenging! Impressive!!
The art style is beautiful and the level design is very well crafted. Smart puzzles and fun mechanics that are easy to understand. Great job!
I love the art style! And level design is very impressive.
A simple theme well executed! Congrats
Great level design and awesome artwork, mechanics are easy to grasp, and had a fun time overall!
