Awesome game! Solid platform puzzling and really cool aesthetically. Took a moment to figure out how many jumps that one creature had, but otherwise it played well. Nice one!

I actually think its one of the best games here. It looks nice, its fun, its easy to play and learn, on point with the theme. Very nice

Very nice, everything fit nicely together. I got stuck on the 4th level I think because I didn't know the jumpy guy could jump in the air again, that could have been communicated better. Oh and I also wish there were checkpoints.

Very nice game! I really enjoyed the art and gameplay was fun

Really neat! At times I found the movement a little jerky and frustrating but for the most part it was pretty good. I liked how many of the levels required using the abilities of different “friends” to get them to coordinate and get you through the level.

Nice job!

Cool game. I like the art and the concept is cool. I have one suggestion which is that you should activate the fullscreen button in the menu when you post the game. It's not a huge deal, but it makes the game easier to play when you're able to do fullscreen in my opinion.

Really love the concept of swapping hosts! The color scheme is awesome as well, super vibrant.

I liked the color scheme and art style a lot! Was drawn in by the colors on your thumbnail. I didn't manage to complete it, got stuck the the level with the rock on the box despite trying it many times :( The sudden spike in speed for the large monster sometimes got me killed on the spikes! But overall, this game is on theme, beautiful, and creative!

really  dope

Nice art and background, the limited colour pallet works well in the game.  The possession mechanic reminds me of Mario odyssey for all the right reasons.  Good job!

Nice game! It was interesting and also challenging. I liked how the art blended together nicely

I like how your games main mechanic worked, The jumps sometimes didn't feel the best tho (Person preference) but overall it was pretty enjoyable play
