- Fun mechanics, some require a bit of a skill curve which is probably great for platformers. The swapping back and forth was done very clean, and would like to see more of the gathering and mixing elements.

It has a cool mechanic, it reminds me of mighty switch force! Pretty cool!
Pretty fun! I could see a full game made from this with a little refining of the player controls, but the swapping mechanic works great. It's a similar core idea as my game but a very different execution.
