It's a challenging game, but I liked how each of the shapes have their own advantages. 

Developer

thank you so much for playing my game.

The game reminded me of that old mobile game (probably a color Nokia phone?) where you are a red ball moving through levels. Very nice concepts and good levels that mix puzzle and platformer mechanics. Well done!

Developer(+1)

thats high praise for me, lol. Thank you so much for playing my game.

A very cool game with some unique mechanics.  You did a great job of designing levels that force the player to switch between mechanics frequently, and I really like that you managed to make your levels challenging but still solvable.  That's a tricky balance to strike.  Nice work!

Nice idea but I couldn't get through the second level due to some issues pushing the blocks. I'm not sure if the entire level was on screen for the browser version.

Developer

thank you for playing my game. Were by any chance trying to push both the blocks at the same time? Because that wont work unless one box is above the other.

Submitted(+1)

Yes that was the case. I'll give it another try :)

Developer

Good luck

Worked this time. The main issue was I had to zoom to be able to see the whole game.

Developer

good to know. Web builds arent always flawless and smooth, and thats sad.

An enjoyable little game. A bit short, but all the levels that there were, were all well made and the right amount of challenging. Good job!

Developer

Developer

thank you

was fun with a good spin on the theme, great job! would like the size scaling to be a bit smoother, it felt a bit clunky

Developer

thank you so much for playing my game. I would try to polish it better when i make the full game later on.

Although i did add a cooldown timer of 0.5 secs to prevent players from switching too often mid air and flying away, lol.

this was a cool spin on the theme, i really liked the way the geometric shapes worked with the environment for the puzzles. Like jamming a square block into a round hole, but fun.

Developer

thank you so much for playing my game

Not bad! Changing the shape adds a bit more complexity to the scaling mechanic. I do like having to scale mid-jump for some of the platforming. Nice job!

Developer

thank you so much for playing my game. Initially i wasnt sure about that mechanic of mid air scaling but now i am happy that people love it.

There are some good puzzle ideas here! I like the jump height changing with the different sizes, forcing you to change size mid-jump sometimes. I found the jump a little too floaty, though, and I would recommend adding coyote-time so that jumping from platform edges could be a bit more forgiving. But overall, great work!

Developer(+1)

thank you so much for playing. And i will surely take your point into consideration when i complete the game after the jam. You are right, Coyote time will definately make a difference to the existing gameplay, thank you.

Interesting mechanics and a good interpretation of the theme. Did not fit well in my browser, which led to a bad experience unfortunately

Developer(+1)

i am so sorry to hear that. But nonetheless thank you so much for playing my game.

I lost a lot of time in level 2 because i didn't think oof going left, silly me! Nice little game, good job!

Developer

lol. Thank you so much for playing my game.

Nice puzzle game, the circle is by far the more usefull one, but shifting throu the different shape is an interesting mechanic.

Good job !

thank you so much for playing my game.

I like the visual style, but I could not get past lvl 2, the boxes wouldn't move, even if I was a square...

Developer

move one box at a time. You can move both if you stack one above the other. To jump through tall spaces use size decrease in mid air. Good luck and thank you for playing my game.


Also you can move boxes a slightly if you choose square on top of the boxes.

Fun puzzle game with some interesting concepts!

A decently fun short game, although I feel like what the square and triangle do could have been properly explained somewhere in the game.

Developer

thank you so much for playing the game. After the jam i will try to complete the game and will surely keep your point in consideration.

Fun take on the theme ! Nicely executed, congrats !
