In level 2, there is that Ross Geller vibe when you try to bring everyone to the end: PIVOT ! PIVOT ! PIVOT :D

I really enjoyed playing your game! Great job!

Ah ah, I crashed all 5 of them before understanding I had to stick them to me then going backward with them!! Really nice game, nice art and music, good job!

Developer

I am glad if this game made you smile :). Thanks for your comment!

That was hard. :) I think the difficulty curve needs some tweaking (level 2 should be the last level imo), but otherwise good game and interesting concept.

Took me a while to grasp, but then I really enjoyed it. And cute little guys btw., they remind me of the movie Spirited Away... :D

The inspiration is definitely Miyazaki, but we were more thinking about the Susuwatari  (noiraude in French) from "My Neighbor Totoro". Although I would not be surprised if they made an appearence in Spirited Away :) !

You are right about the difficulty, I didn't have sufficient time for proper testing...

EDIT : After proper research (ahem), you are right They do have a major part in Spirited Away. I don't know how I forgot about it. Anyway, nice catch !

Cute and deviously tricky game :) Level 2 was by far the hardest!

Developer(+1)

I am happy if you enjoyed it :). 

We spent maybe too much time on designing the creatures and the mechanics.In the end, there was little time left for the level design. 3 hours is definitely pretty tight !

The game certainly deserves additional levels with intermediate difficulty.

It took me a while to understand that you could stack the black balls on themselves (and not just stack them on the main character), well it was when I had first given up and had a look at the pictures.

After that, I enjoyed it a little bit more :) but it's hard!

Visuals are cute, music is good, congrats for the entry !

Sorry for that. I had originally planned to include guidelines within the game, but I ran out of time.  In the end, I added the screenshots to showcase this feature, but I agree this is stil insufficient.

I'm glad you didn't give up, gave it another try, and that you enjoyed it.

EDIT : I added a note in the description
