This is cool! A very solid lost-vikings-style puzzle game with alternate dimensions, The red/blue color schemes are a great way to keep track of the two different characters.

I was impressed with the way you gradually rolled out new mechanics. It was not immediately obvious how some of the new moving parts worked, but the most obvious tests were a surefire way expose the underlying behavior - which I'm sure was not easy to design!

The story was interesting, but I wish there was a way to jump immediately into the action. I was excited to play this because it was a jam entry, but I might be turned off by a webgame frontloaded with a few minutes of reading if I encountered it in the wild.

The game was a  lot of fun, the puzzles were interesting and just the right difficulty! The dialogue speed was a bit slow and the some of the letters overlapped each other. Also, pushing the box into a corner made it unable to move anymore, which made me have to restart. Other than that the game ran smoothly and was a fun experience!

Sorry that you experienced these things. Apart from this thank you so much for the compliment. We will work on every problem soon. :)

Absolutely amazing work. I love the title screen and the puzzles were mostly easy but still very clever. My only gripe is that I initially thought the skip button on the dialogue would skip the entire scene and not just advance the text, and the introduction was much longer than the actual game too.

Thanks for the compliment. We will work on that soon

Nice colors, and I love that the music progresses as it gets further (as well as changing between dimensions). I also like that there’s a whole introductory cutscene with dialogue, very nice!

Developer

Thank you so much for such kind words :D

I love the colour palettes you used and the change between dimensions. The puzzles were nicely made too. Not too hard, but took a little work and exploration to figure out.

Developer

Thanks buddy :) We will surely work on it.

Fun story, really impressive for the graphics. Liked the dialogue, but the text writing out letter by letter was just as slow to be a bit annoying for me. Cool environmental soundtrack!

Developer

Thanks so much! We will surely hear your issues :)

Just a tip for others after press skip then press the black button underneath with the three dots. Nice game although all the dialogue too much for me ha, if you connected the skip and bypass the button would have been great. Speed it up.

Developer

Will be worked on soon :) Thanks for Playing.

Wow really impressive game I played through quite a bit but one room just stumped me. Music was outstanding between the dimensions and other than the puzzle i got stuck on that may have been all me the dialogue though good and you did give a skip felt a little long.

Thanks for your kind and appreciating words :)
