Love the artstyle! Super crisp. Perfect use of the limitation and plays well - very solid all around. The time limit doesn't lend itself well to tutorialization but I found at least for me the mechanics were pretty intuitive and well hinted at compared to others.
That last level was pretty tough, felt like a genius when I figured out how to stack all the bots on top of each other. The fact that the top most bot has the highest speed is definitely tricky to handle. Art style was nice too though I would have preferred if the background color matched the color of the active platform. Gameplay is very solid and rewarding. Overall nice work!
I was confused at first but after knowing the game mechanic, the puzzle seemed to be fun to solve.
Both themes and limitations have a huge role together in this game.
I hope it will have some particle effect when we press Q or E. It might be nice.
Nice work.
Solid use of the limitation, I liked it. Controls were very responsive.
Cool Puzzle Platformer. The game should say that zombies can be used as platforms but can kill you on the sides. Other than that, I'd like to see more levels.
Loved the concept behind it; I was only confused when to change colors and/or use the zombies as spare platforms
Hey! This game cool and hard! Like this type of games!
Over all is good but just get confused about I died sometimes after push Q key.
Admittedly, we didn't explain this very well in the game. Pressing Q will kill you but leave a zombie where you died, which you can use as a platform to reach places you otherwise could not.
Cool! It makes more sense now :)
The zombie system was really difficult to grasp, but once I got it the game was fun.
An interesting idea. 8/10
i like the idia when the next are is block and you change the color keep it up.
Great game! Loved the concept! The zombie mechanic was a little hard to understand though.
Once I got the zombie system I really liked it. Cute character, cool concept, I like the retro aesthetic. Nice job!

I am embarrassed at how long it took me to figure out the zombie mechanic haha, but once I did it was good fun!
Fun game! I was a little confused about the zombie system but after using my eyeballs and reading I got it - I liked the minimalism of the in-game explanations but maybe a little more was needed. Overall great work!
Great game! It was confusing at first and when I was reading the key inputs during the game, it felt like the game had tricked me because it only lead to my death hahahaha
Hello! The idea is great but nothing is explained in the game. Most of the players will not try if at least the basics are taught.
I managed to finish the game, that was tricky. The inputs are badly chosen, With T and Y except of Q and E you can use both hands and be quicker.
Anyway, great idea, work on the presentation for your next games!
I put key icons so the player would press them to figure out what they do, eventually solving the puzzle. However, I will take this into account for the next game. Thank you!
This is a very original and elegant idea, especially when I realized you can control who moves with the color as well. I kinda want to make a clone now, so you should probably make more levels and publish it somewhere. It was never annoying, which is great for a platformer, probably because the controls are so smooth. My only nitpick is you can probably have a respawn animation where the zombies wait until you are finished instead of cutting to XX% left because it was rather jarring.
