Took me a sec to work out how to access eraser mode, but once I got that working I really liked the concept. The controls are nice and I like the small touches (the animations, the transition). Good job :)

Submitted

I can see the polish here with the beautiful wipe transition and the poof on jump and land. Unfortunately, I can’t get past the first challenge where I think I need to edit. I replied to a post about the controls below. But I am bad at platformers, so it’s partially if not entirely me!

Submitted

Great game! It’s a well made and enjoyable platformer. The controls took a bit to get used to, but once I got the hang of them, it was really fun playing with the eraser mode.

Submitted

Had some trouble figuring out how to play, otherwise a charming platformer

Submitted

Loved the idea of erasing and putting back tiles, would need a bit more fluid controls like others mentioned but this has a huge potential

Submitted

Nice game. I will say the same about the control. They are a bit hard to remember on first play!


Good job :)

Neat game, fun and well executed platformer. It took some time to get the control right but then it was fun to play with the edit mode trying to optimize my way around :)

Developer

Thanks. What did you find difficult about the controls ?

Submitted

I just kept spaming 'A' to jump like a fool, on the controller. I think it's just a question of habits ^^ I was more familiar with the keyboard, though :) Don't know if it was possible to remap the edit mode key, i might have put it to tab, or someting, to be able to play with one hand. I tried to edit in mid air (which is very fun) and found it difficult at first to switch between pause mode and movement mode. Very cool game though :)

Submitted

I had the “muscle memory” trouble of trying to jump with controller “A”, too. When I switched to keyboard and mouse, I couldn’t figure out how to delete/add tiles.

The game is nice and i like the collectible like the strawberry in celest. Take me a while to find the controle since it's a bit of a mess on keyboard (in my opinion), it was P for erasing mode, E to erase and Q to replace, take me some time to play start too since i was thinking on using mouse instead of keyboard. The game still feel smooth and nice to play (only keylayout need some work in my opinion)

Developer

Thank you. The game is indeed made with heavy celeste inspiration. Sorry about the broken keyboard layout. I fixed the play button and updated the keyboard controls scheme. I also added the keyboard controls on the game page. The game was submitted 5 minutes before the deadline and I forgot about the mouse/keyboard shceme because I tested with a controller.

Submitted

Hey! This game looks super cool. But I couldn’t quite figure out the controls to switch to erasing mode on keyboard/mouse. I’d love to give another shot. :)

Developer

Thanks for trying and sorry for the inconvenience about the controls. I got the play menu fixed up for the mouse and I changed the controls scheme for keyboard. It's on the game page. Hope you can try it again.

Submitted

Thanks for adding the controls! I like the concept and its a pretty cool game. Good work!
