I like how you have to scale to move around and collect the keys before moving onto the next stage. The final dragon was challenging to complete, but I climbed the 'Scale' and won once I got the hang of it.
It was a really fun platforming game! I loved the idea of knowledge damaging you, and the re-sizing mechanic was very smart and a change from the usual platforming games. Although the final boss was very tricky, it was fun to battle it! I would recommend this game to my friends! :)
A fun game, love the flying books. Great use of the scale requirement.
It would have been cooler if the final boss forced you to use the core mechanics of switching sizes to beat it. As it is, it lacks a lot of polish, especially with the platforming mechanics, but it's a fun little wacky game that feels like you accidentally walked into a child's playtime.
fun little game with funny characters. Love the idea with billiam booksphear.
