The storytelling, atmosphere and gameplay were all really good. The controls were responsive and the level design was solid, I enjoyed playing this one.

Nice I really enjoyed it! Great pacing with the difficulty. Good job on visuals. The little glowing effect was pleasant. Love the falling particles effect. The music does a great job setting the mood to. The end credits song was my favorite.
Good job with the theme as well. Tons of games have the two characters mechanic but you guys took it further with the story elements. You managed to get some emotion in there at the the end too :.)
Didn't expect to be emotionally connected with two squares today.
The only case in the world where the smaller brother must carry the bigger one, so the big one can reach the platform :D
Very nice simplistic graphics and good, fitting music (which could loop a little bit better, but it's not a big deal) and well made puzzles.
It has it's charm <3
I like simple art style with storytelling. Also controls very fluid its easy to control our character and very enjoyable experience. Good work ^^
Hi I'm the developer of https://itch.io/jam/lost-relic-games-1/rate/1580606
What I like
- A very good attempt at a two character controlled gameplay.
- Simple design but well put together, I can see the small details added like particle effects despite things are just gradients and squares.
- A immersive story well put together with music and SFX and dialogues.
What could be improved
- The little square could jump higher, further, and go into small places. Maybe too much power here.
- The big brother should be the one to be able to jump higher to get little brother to places. In addition it could have a "weight" benefit to it, knowing that he is "big brother".
- Noticed some jittering movement bugs when the squares move.
Overall, this was very good.
Really cool game that honestly kinda resonated with me.
It reminded me of growing up messing around with my brother and that love you have for your siblings and how we would do anything for each other.
Music was really nice and the simplistic primitive shapes I think actually did it a favor as at least for me it made me think that sibling love is irrelevant of species, reality, or anything.
My only criticism is that the big brother just doesn't seem as useful as the little brother, in most cases the little brother is the key to solving the problem.
All in all though a really fun game!
Good job friend :D
Hey I just played your game I think it's really good! There's a bug that I thought I should mention in the level where you have to split up. If both brothers go down the bottom path, the camera doesn't go back to the previous area if you want to take one of them back to go to the top path
Other than that, I like the lighting and the text that you put throughout the levels. Very good level designs!
Awesome presentation! unfortunately I got stuck on the elevator where the little brother is supposed to quickly run onto it after activating the button and I couldn't restart
