As a non-game dev, I can't think of a single more promising game kickstarter update I've ever seen than "we're writing unit tests." Thanks for the update, and I can't wait to see what you build!

Nice game! A fun little matcher taking the theme in a half dozen different directions. I like how there's a couple different ways to deal with things, too, and that some of the "always works on this type" you might also need for something else in the level. Very clever!
But also 0/10 what do you mean we don't care about the dog i ONLY care about the dog
Glad you enjoyed it!
Part of the original concept was to play with the "distance" challenge without setting a hard cap or lose condition. The solution was to make the game unplayably bright, but that wasn't enough on its own so I added the sound. It's a pretty effective deterrant to keep the player away from the knight, but obviously it's pretty unpleasant. I have some concerns about it being an accessibility issue, which is why I put in the warning at the front, but it serves its purpose and is thematic enough that I thought it better to leave it in despite that.
I like this a lot! The introduction of enemies in stage 4 is a very well done, with lots of room to explore interactions.
I got trapped between a bee and a thorn a few times - I know that it resets the level after a few moments, but even still that can be very frustrating (especially when you're close to the end of the level. That aside, the physics are fun and the movement is just floaty enough to make thing interesting. Well done!
