Super cool core mechanic! I think with a bit more refinement of the controls and collision, this could make for something really interesting. Great work!

A really enjoyable concept on scaling a platforming game. I was extra delighted when  you factored in the acid scaling differently which revealed hidden platforms, and having to perform a jump and scale at the same time. The writing was also a really nice tough and made me want to keep playing to the end to see all the messages.

The only thing slightly holding it back is the player controls. The movement and jumping is pretty janky and made even a small jump pretty difficult. Great job!

Very cool idea and the puzzles are very clever. I was confused some times with the controls, which key change what axis and in what scale i was. Maybe add some ui also i was thinking that the x key was for the x axis.

Ah, fair- we settled on z & x mainly because I've seen a few games pair that with the arrow keys for controls. Totally get that it gets confusing. Thanks for playing!

Cool concept! Enjoyed playing your game. Controls and some collisions throw me off a little tho, but that's only +-big thing that messed with me.

Quiet enjoyed this game, but platforming was a bit cluncky and some puzzles I completed with mashing z and x.
