I like the idea of this, and agree with other commenters. May I ask, how do you get the green key?

Thanks for playing and the feedback.
Yeah, for the green key you must grab the shovel then go jump on the smiling hill which will grow which then allows you to get up to the blue key. The blue key then allows you to unlock the blue lock which grows a ladder that leads to that upper platform where the green key is located. Then you can drop down and eat the mushroom to grow smaller and eat the mushroom to proceed to the next segment.
What a fun entry! I have seen this concept many times where you need to grow and shrink your player to access places in a level but I think you're the one who did it the best! The controls were a bit messy, sometimes I was pressing up but the character wasn't jumping. Apart from that, you made a wonderful game that was fun to play! You can be proud of what you made 😄💛

Attack before they grow!Great idea for the theme and feels nice to control, apart from when jumping doesn't work sometimes like some other commenters mentioned. I did also find that sometimes the walls felt a bit too low so it was difficult to jump onto some enemies.
Other than that though, good work!

Super Hat ManNice game, overall enjoyed it. The only issue I had was I got stuck after I got the pick axe on my first play through because I didn't have the key so had to restart, but once I figured that out it was good.

Speed RoadLOL, yeah, I added that restart feature early on because I'd accidently hit the mushroom during test play and shrink myself and not have a way to get back out to get to the other things needed and I thought players would also like a quick way to restart once they realized their peril. Thanks for playing, for the kind words, and the feedback!

Speed RoadI like the concept of growing and shrinking to get through certain areas of the course! And your sound design was good too! For feedback, the biggest thing I struggled with was I couldn't seem to jump when I was against a wall or something, this made it a little difficult to navigate since I was constantly moving a bit off the wall and then trying to jump. Otherwise this was a fun till game and concept!

Grow Your Own CivilizationReally nice approach to the theme! I had some trouble jumping sometimes but other then that I love how he adapts his skills through the levels.
Amazing work! ヾ(＠＾▽＾＠)ﾉ
