The game is really fun, but a little bit difficult.

Submitted

solid platformer with a really great magnet mechanic, although i couldnt beat level 2, really like the artstyle!

Submitted

looks awesome! though, the magnets felt kinda weird, and i couldnt get past the second level because it was way too hard

Submitted

Very polished but aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah masocore difficulty ^^ Is this the new syobon action?

Unique concept and great puzzles! Lots of potential for more. Kinda similar to GMTK's wip game.

I think the controls are a bit hard to use making some puzzles really hard. The rotation could maybe be with arrow keys and w for jump, and the physics could be a bit less floaty to make precise magnet actions easier to pull off.

(also the game crashed when loading the second level after I completed the second, I just rebooted the game and played the second from the level select)

Those were some very fun puzzles. It took a lot of coordination and it felt like the magnet power was inconsistent.

pretty amazing but its insanely hard!

Submitted

Yeah, the first levels must be much easier, but you have made just the endgame!

Creative game. Some bugs, mainly clipping through magnets and spikes sometimes, but it's a jam afterall.
I'm honestly surprised you managed to build this in the limited time span, good job!

Very nice and polished game, great work ! (I would hav liked to be able to play with right hand on arrow keys)

Developer

You can rebind the controls in settings, altho I assume from the fact you wrote this they didn't show up, the game window may have been to small but you can also edit the save file directly, thanks for playing anyway!

Submitted

oh sorry, I had not seen the settings before. It's great !

The only thing is that I can't double click to rotate 180 deg. That makes some parts feel impossible. But except that I really liked the game. :)

Already been added to the next patch! Glad you enjoyed it nonetheless!

Submitted

Wow, so polished! 

Developer

Thanks!

Terrific game! Only thing I would add is a simple input buffer to the magnet rotation, it can be frustrating having your inputs eaten, particularly on the puzzles that require quick double rotations

Developer(+1)

I agree, I should have done that as I too have had it cause issues, thanks for playing and also fixing the issue on it's github! A new patch should be out soon.

The idea is cool. The character kawaii like cute. The only thing i missed is some nice tune. 

Developer

Thanks, I wish I had more time and effort to add music in game but I sadly ran out of time.
