Use of the limitation
We decided it would be fun to use your life as a double jump in a platformer. You are able to sacrifice a part of you essentially "killing" yourself and use it as a jump boost.

Cookies eaten
I was tempted to eat many but managed to hold myself back only eating 3(specifically Oreo)

Loved the Main Mechanic and the presentation of the game.  Pretty Cool

Love the idea of using a dead clone as a boost. Would be interested to see all the different ways it could be used.

Submitted

It could use some more playtesting particularly on the movement. Although its a clever take on the "health is your weapon" theme, particularly the cloning mechanic. I feel like the clones are heavily underused though and could really show potential in puzzles, but overall its nice!

Submitted

Interesting Idea, i like the clone mechanic a lot, and the aesthethic. Idk if it only happens on my browser but the game looks like "jagged", despite that I enjoyed the game even if it's a hard game, the reset is instantaneous and that makes the trick for me! ^^ nice game

Submitted

a good looking game with an interesting concept. kind of infuriating trying to land on the columns, but i guess that's the point. nice work!

Submitted

Very fun! I beat the whole game without jumping off my clones, just using the vertical boost from spawning one and some pathing. I just walked to the end of level 7 and 8, and hoisted myself up, among other skips. The bugs are annoying, but the concept is solid, and the art is well stylized. Nice game!

Very interesting and challenging game! I had lots of fun solving your puzzles!

Wow, everything is perfect in this one. From art to the limitation.

Pretty unique and hard but fun game, art style and sfx is simple and blends together, Good Job!

Wooow very creative game

Submitted

Wow, that was great. Probably the most unique I've played so far! My only gripe is the UI. It was difficult to make sense of it. Maybe some text down below describing what's what. Overall, fantastic little game.

I think you have the game sent to private at the moment. Set it to public so people can play!

Developer

Thanks for the heads up! I set it to public so I think you can play it now.
