Oh, this is an INSPIRED take on the theme, awesome job!! The level design is well-done, your mechanics are ingenuitive, I'm loving this! The only suggestion I might make for it is that the inertia on the movement feels a little more sluggish than physical(? if that makes sense, it could perhaps be tuned slightly). This is really great stuff, thanks so much!
Yeah, I realized it might be a bit floaty. Thanks for the critique and the high praise!
Great submission! I found it very fun trying to figure out every puzzle's solution, it had a really nice learning curve and every level completion felt really satisfying! The level design is super well done, the graphics are nice and the sound track is very catchy, well done!
Thank you! My friend will be very happy to hear you enjoyed his music!
Really cool puzzle game, especially adding the "buttons" to change the symmetry for the shadow added a good depth at the game, great job !
Thank you! And the "buttons" really are just buttons, I couldn't come up with any lore or flavor for them. They're there purely for gameplay purposes.
Loved the mechanic and the level design is properly done. Nice difficulty progression that doesn't go out the roof and is enjoyable! Really dig the ninja aesthetic and death cutscene. Good game my friend :)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Great use of the shadow mechanic and clever puzzles! Someone already pointed the flickering out, and that is the only bug I think I've encountered.
Thanks for playing! I hope the flickering wasn't too annoying. It was my first time making a puzzle game, so I hope I made the puzzles challenging enough.
Absolutely not! Just a minor issue that happens every now and then
Great job ! Loved the minimalistic retro graphics and the clever game mechanics !
I hope you enjoyed the puzzles as much I enjoyed yours!
Beautiful concept! Great level design! Simplistic but solid Artwork!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This was great! The mechanic seems like a fairly common one at first, until I realized that the ghost can go through some walls. Absolutely loved that. The art was also super clean and appealing. Well done!
Thank you! It was kind of challenging to stick to a four-color palette, but I feel the result really paid off. Thanks for playing!
Awesome! I really like this take on the theme and I feel like everything about this game comes together into a very cohesive whole! There are a few things that were a little confusing at first, and the movement felt really floaty even for a smoke creature, but I thought the puzzles were well thought out and I had fun playing through this game! excellent job :)
Thank you so much! I realized the mechanics might not be too well explained, but I hope it wasn't too hard to figure it out!
Awesome gameplay. I really like the movement and the idea of controlling two characters at the same time.
Glad to hear it! Thanks so much for playing it!
Woa! very good mechanics super addictive and challenging. Took me some tries but felt super rewarding completing each puzzle = D
Thanks for the feedback! It's my first time actually submitting a game for a game jam, so I hope you're all enjoying what I've made!
Awesome! the mechanics of swapping places with the clone are good, the puzzles too, on the last one I restarted 3 times to figure it out. The graphics are great, really enjoyed it.
Of the bugs only the flickering of the clone, but it does not interfere much with gameplay
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I did notice the flickering thing with the reflection, which only happens in the browser version of this game, so I have no idea how to fix it. Which is kind of frustrating.
