Very interesting approach to the theme!! I just found the controls a bit hard to get used to.

Developer

That seems to be a consensus on the controls lol. Thanks for playing!

Great game, just unclear how to exit the level. Also the controls are hard to understand

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! Yeah, I guess I forgot to put that both players need to touch the goal to move on... I'll add it to the description at least.

Cool game! Would be easier with smoother controls but overall nice job!

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Really fun game just need more fluid controls

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Looks nice and i like the idea, the controls are bad though, shift to jump is unnatural but space to be reset leads to accidentally instinctively pressing space to jump and the level being reset. And since both scale with each other, why not have just one set of scale buttons instead of two for each and then second player on arrow keys. I want to like the game but the controls are holding it back imo, but still good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback! Yeah, I struggled to make good keyboard controls. Even if P2 got the arrow keys, they still would need a different jump button somewhere. Wish I could update that but it’s the best I came up with in the time limit :)

Game was quite fun and unique but controls are confusing, i thing second character should use arrows, because i constantly checked where is my hand to know move the second character, otherwise good game. :)

I liked the scaling mechanic a lot and the idea of two separate controls is interesting, but I was unable to figure out how to get out of the first screen.
