I love the concept and the mechanics are executed fantastically. Movement is tight and even with difficult jumps I didn’t get frustrated at the end. Awesome game, just needs more!
Well, this was adorable – the intro dialogue was nice, and a really well-executed concept. I vaguely recall a similar game from a previous SGJ where the game interacted with your desktop, but I think this was a lot better and cooler and really clicked. I liked that the backdrop falls away as you play – it felt like there was tension building. I found some of the platforming bits pretty tricky, but I think that’s mostly because my coordination is not so good. But yeah, really cool little game; well done.
I enjoyed this - the mechanic of having to move the screen around to solve the puzzle was new to me and after a bit of practice I got used to it. The cutscene at the start was amusing as well - and the background continuing to come apart as you played fit the story you created well.
On the stream Tom's antivirus didn't like it so you can't see his background behind it - but I played it myself afterwards and it works great.
Similar to last year's game but I think it worked smoother - less flashing of windows etc.
I think it would have benefited from the platforms on the background not being just a white square as this made it quite hard to spot them against my windows - having a border or something would have helped.
Really nice jam game though - it even has a cutscene!

Interesting idea, although personally I didn't find it too appealing.
This is great,
The moving the window around is a brilliant concept.
Got some good Thomas was alone vibes.
Well done!
This was excellent.

This was a great idea, very fun twist on platforming
I liked the characters and the concept, but moving the window around quickly became frustrating.
