Awesome levels and concept! The look, feel, and gameplay are all awesome. The only thing I didn't really like while playing was that the matches disappeared. It's hard already! Otherwise a really well made game.

A difficult, but still fun little game.  I really lover the games atmosphere. Well done.

Well done ! (but a little bit too difficult for me xD)

Took me quite a while to get through the first level. I must say it was pretty challenging and hard, but the visuals and sound are very satisfying!

Wow, it’s so hard! I don’t know how a 7 y/o managed to beat it.

Great platformer, lots of interesting mechanics like rotating platforms, shoot-able matches that can set other platforms on fire etc.

The only annoyance is that double jump often doesn’t work. But otherwise a very nice game!

Hey! I really liked the concept and mechanics of the game. It made for some interesting puzzles to solve. There's a bug where you can reset your jump if you collide with the side of a platform, making it possible to cheese a lot of the levels by spamming jump when you hit the side. I enjoyed the goofy pencil, and think it was a lot of fun overall. Great job!

Thanks for your comments. Yea the wall jump is a functionally needed for the harder levels. I could have left it out in the earlier levels. Thanks for playing and for rating!

Very nice! Loved the characters and sound design! Also the gameplay is very unique, with projectiles also being platforms, and having limited amount of them and limited time until they burn, made me mad, in a good way!

Thanks so much for you comments. It was nice having so much time to work on this game jam as it did not feel as rushed as I normally do. I was able to catch a lot of the bugs. Taking a look at your game now.
