Cool puzzle game πŸ˜ƒ!

 GAMEPLAY  
Nice gameplay to solve the puzzles by absorbing the correct characters and finish the levels. Also the build up to more challenging puzzles is well done. Sometimes I really had to think how to solve a level and that is good, but maybe some hints could be helpful also. The movement was a bit tricky at times. You really had to be pixel perfect. But fun to try to solve the puzzles! 

GRAPHICS/ART  
Simple good 8-bit pixel art style. The characters were cute😊! 

AUDIO   
Simple audio that does not distract you but also has a good vibe for the puzzle genre.

THEME   
Nice absorption game mechanics. Well done!

Overall a very fun challenging puzzle game. Job well done πŸ’ͺ!

what an entertaining game! I love the idea of having to force the player to think to solve each level, the absorption theme adapts perfectly and I have no complaints, both audio and graphics, I consider that the most outstanding thing is the gameplay. congratulations :D

Im a big fan of the character swapping genre and i like the absorbing power aspect. Getting boxes to fall down holes was suuuuuuuper frustrating though.

Loved the combination and merging of the mechanics together, and ends up as a fun little platform-puzzler game

Really cool! Had a bit of trouble moving the crate but I really like the mechanics and how every character had a different ability that you can combine together. Great work.

very solid game! I like the aborption mechanic. I Wanted to something similar at first but then i changed direction. Good game. 

If any feedback; the last(?) level where you get the "press R to restart" was a little bit to pixel perfect to drop the crates and move the kneecap boy around. I think he should fall down as well right? couldnt get it done. Overall nice game!
