How does your game fit the theme?
The core mechanic of "ReScale" revolves around the robot's ability to grow and shrink. This aligns perfectly with the theme of "Built to Scale," as players must complete each level by building new platforms and manipulating the robot's scale. Other interpretations of the theme include a robot that was literally built to scale, designed for precise size manipulation, or the climbing sense of "scaling," where some levels require the player to climb steep surfaces using their past bodies as footholds.

Perfect score from me! I managed to beat even the "thank you for playing" level HAHA it just went back to the start thought there would be an easter egg. love the game and the concept! Congrats!!

Couldn't figure out how to progress in the first level. Wonderful concept and art though!

Nice game,  it was fun to play and figure out some different strategies!

Game is simply but very good designed. Very fun to play. Good job!

I really like the simplicity of the art style. The gameplay is clever too. I would love to see more features added to the game.

The asset you used for the character strikes deep in my heart, since I used the sabe character to make one of my favorite games to develop, NuR.

Anyway, about the game, its quite fun, I didnt feel too much challenge playing through, maybe if you add some sort of punishment for respawning, or giving more points if you use less respawns, would encourage players to think carefully instead of just creating a pool of “corpses” XD great game nonetheless, congrats!

Really clever concept! Funny that the "thank you for playing" level was the most difficult! Maybe the speed of the scale could have been a little lower. But it's a fun and nice work, congrats!

The concept and main mechanic are pretty creative, kudos for the game and level design.  Maybe just call it something else, the first level was the hardest to pass, until you figure out what you're capable of. Other than that, I find the game and the levels really well put-together, great work!

really nice idea, but I think an improvement to the game would be if you added a limit to how many you can place, it would allow players to get more creative and add a little bit of challenge

It's a really cool concept and after a while, I needed to get more creative with how to place my past-selves to be able to get past the levels. Great visual style that serves the game well. Overall, a very solid job!

Sadly admit I still dont know how to pass the first level orz. but judging by the screenshot really a good game

Submitted(+1)

It's so cool, especially "Dead". I don't konw what difference between respawn and restart until I try to do it. It's a good idea about "Save your scale". 

But I afraid the concept of "Dead" is as same as concept of "Respawn" and if it maybe ...well...Is it conflict with the logical of each other's mechanism? I mean these two concepts are too same to scaled well.

Great simple game. I think a spawn limit would make this a more interesting puzzle game.  Art is good and rescaling physics were awesome. 

Submitted(+1)

Very cool concept, I'm curious what other puzzles you can come up with. Maybe more with the pushing mechanic. Good job

Excellent little game, with a fun mechanic of using yourself as a stepping stone. Nicely made!
