Excellent game, would have been amazing to revisit previous level to unlock capabilities with the ones you get over time like in a metroidvania style, great game!
I did actually want at first to create levels you could revisit! I quickly found it would be too much work and most people wouldn't even get to that point in the game, so I went for a more linear style to showcase the mechanics! :>
Thanks for rating! :D
Very nice platformer! The art was so pretty and the atmosphere was perfect. It felt a bit weird when I tried switching snake/bee scales and would find myself having to walking back and forth to places that worked, should have only thrown the error when trying to change size scales. Other than that small problem, it was perfect!
The thing is, the player only really has to change his power scales once in the game, and I thought making the message appear only once you fully committed into the UI would make it feel even more annoying, since you'd have to retry from the start everytime. I just find that preventing the UI from being opened at all when you can't switch makes people find it more responsive once they actually can change scales.
Like you said, it's just a small problem, but I thought I'd just share my thought process. ;)
What do you think?
Anyways, thanks for playing! :D
I liked this game, it's a chill little puzzle platformer with nice pixel art!
I liked the game, even had to think about the last level:). It's a pity that there is no volume control for background music. And also small bugs with the interface.
It was my first time adding music to a game, but I promise I'll do so next time! :D
Thank you for playing until the end!
A very cute and atmopsheric little game. I thought the equiping of the scales was a little convuleted at times, despite this, i enjoyed the creative takes on the different animal scales.
loved the vibes Ard ArtStyle !
nice little puzzles and mecanics on sizes !
aside the "bug" of interface (that is not a problem, its classic in jams ^^) nithinng goes in the way of ahving fun,
well done !
The UI interface being offset can simply be fixed by playing in fullscreen (It's the first thing written in the description!)
Thank you for playing! :>
I couldn´t equip the bunny scales in the first puzzle :'(
Press E to open and close the UI! Sorry if that may be unclear! :>
Experimentation is recommended!
Nice, now i could get further :)
Really nice puzzles and a soothing music. Good job!
Thank you for persevering! ;D
