The idea of putting a quick tutorial in the game is nice, especially with a relatively complex game such as this one compared to others in the jam. 

You've managed to put multiple movement options in the game with just one button press as well as an interesting gravity+pressure mechanic, although holding the box and activating the gravity switches is finicky and often makes the player drop the box. 

Something missing would be a pause menu, especially since I managed to softlock the game and had to close it to restart.

I love the idea that you control 2 characters with the pressing and releasing of the space bar, it's a very unique control scheme especially with the limitation of 1 button. The artstyle is also fantastic. However I never seemed to be able to reach the end? Either the end is very far off or maybe I'm just not good enough at the game. Other than that, great project!

Current Known Issues: 

- Irregular Movement Speed (likely caused by uneven drag on the player object)

- Death Counter does not carry over to consecutive levels

Improvements:

- Sound effects

- Further opaqueness on obstacles

I loved the art aspect of the game and the game having a soundtrack is very nice too! My criticism isn't of the gameplay itself, but rather the fact that the game closes itself if you fail, rather than giving you the option to restart. Something for the players to compete over would be a nice addition, like a high score or a fastest clear time, but I appreciate that time was tight. 

The concept is certainly interesting but the gameplay is challenging. I think a more visible indicator of when you have managed to pick up the blue boxes would improve the game, as currently there is no way to see whether or not you timed your button press correctly other than a small score indicator in the top right corner. The camera felt very jerky although this may have been intentional?  Overall a nice project that has potential :)
