What a cool concept! I really enjoyed this game. Great stuff.

Nice idea. Reminds me of Link Between Worlds 

I didn't get lost, I just explored many times in the same direction. Nice idea. 

I loved this game. I love games that mix 2d and 3d elements already but I thought your game was pretty clever. I did have some bugginess with the mouse even in full screen mode but it wasn't unplayable. Great Work!

Loved this game. Fun game play, nice music and interesting mechanics. Loved the framed picture humour too!

wow secret area hidden hearts, shortcuts, camera could use some tweaking but really good game

I loved this! Can't believe how much you got done as a team of one!  Really impressed that you had secret areas and shortcuts on top of everything else. Did find myself stuck at the first hurdle (the gate) for a long time, so maybe a few more environmental hints at where the gap is would've helped, but I'm nitpicking.

Great work!

Loved the game idea! I made it out of bounds in level 2 lol. Fell forever. The sound effect of goung back to 3d was priceless. POP.

Really fun idea!  I like the 2d mechanic.

I'm a fan of this interpretation of the theme (it's unique in the games I've come across so far). These sort of 3D games give me motion sickness so it was a bit of a battle between that and my desire to explore more :) I genuinely enjoyed exploring and looking for gaps. For movement I ended up using a combination of the game controller and mouse to look around. Originally it felt a bit like my squashed down princess should be able to get under the gates - it was the first thing I tried because her body is less width than the hole between the bars. Then I turned around and learnt what I should do. I got the thought that more dynamic/flickering lighting may help make some of the gaps a bit more noticeable as the light would change a bit differently. But you may or may not want to do that given the balance in the game is the finding of where to go - it might make it too easy. But good game. I don't think I got anywhere near the end of the game but I also wonder why she didn't ask the guard for an envelope and a stamp then flatten herself and post herself home :)

I love this idea!! Completely different take on the 2 dimensions that im sure a lot of people never even thought about, seemed like a really unique idea. Only issue I had was with the mouse, sometimes I would move it slightly and it would spin the camera around crazy. 

I love how the game looks and sounds. The camera angle can be a bit weird at times. I love the mechanic. Love how you could hide in the painting and under the rug. It's a bit hard to find where you have to go next.

In the final level, I flattened vertically against the door to the cell with the heart and unflattened, that cause me to teleport into the cell.

Overall, great game.

I thought the idea was pretty interesting.  The mechanics are cool and all, but I found having to search for the openings more annoying than fun due to the camera.  There's one opening that I missed I think in the 3rd level, so I ended up outside of the castle by going behind the stairs and finding a heart underneath it.  There was an opening in the back which took you outside and I fell forever.  I was able to restart the level to get back.  I had made it past the guards twice and searched all over because the opening was on the far left where I had already search but I guess missed it due to the camera angle.  Overall the game was pretty fun.

Brilliant use of the theme! And expertly executed as well, super smooth. Very much enjoyed your submission, well done.

I guess if I were to critique I'd have to mention the level design a little bit. It was tricky figuring out where to go and finding those tiny vertical cracks in already multifaceted walls was sometimes an unnecessary challenge. That would have been perfect for secrets maybe, but the main path could have had used some kind of indication, even a little bit of color would have done the trick. Things like the button on the first level opening both gates also could have had some kind of indication that it was opening the exit gate too, perhaps even a window so you could see down there.

Thanks for making this excellent little project!

Genuinely really enjoyed this! Very creative concept and well implemented, and I enjoyed the little touches of charm like how you can enter the paintings(?) on the walls. Reminds me of the Link Between Worlds zelda game on 3ds. 

Some creative level design ideas, too - I really loved going under the carpets to evade the guards!

One suggestion I have is that if the gameplay is all about noticing tiny gaps, the object and wall graphics need to be simple enough that it's clear what's supposed to be a gap and what's not - sometimes I found small gaps in the brick walls that looked identical to ones you could actually go under, but they were probably unintentional as you couldn't pass through them haha. Maybe if you developed it further you could add unique "crack" textures/modelling to make the cracks/gaps a little clearer?

I also found the sound effects pretty funny - although the guard alert sound literally made me jump the first time it played ahahah.

Oh man, this was actually such a cool game. I loved a lot about it, but I do have three critiques:

One, I initially passed over this game a few times because the cover image didn't really grab me. Maybe it's just me, take that with a grain of salt.

Two, I think my biggest complaint while playing the game would be the camera controls. They were mostly alright, but some of the behavior felt clunky and difficult. I didn't like that I couldn't look up while flat on the floor (though admittedly it makes sense lol), and the way the camera "collided" with the walls and stuff made it difficult to see what I was doing while navigating tight spaces. In a game about navigating tight spaces, I'd consider polishing that if possible.

Three, I really wish you played the main menu music in the actual game, maybe on the final level (or heck, all the levels). It's so epic and cool, and I only got to hear 5 seconds of it.

But overall, I think this is an innovative and fun mechanic, and I love that way it's executed! I think you've got a really special game here. Awesome job!

Wow what a cool mechanic! And it works so well! I enjoyed it so much I played till the end. I was stuck on level 3 for awhile, that spot under the boxes was hard to spot. I think you should consider adding some visual cues to the cracks in the walls, maybe give them a colored outline? or maybe an effect that looks like light is coming through? They're sometimes really difficult to find against the wall. I also really enjoyed the art around the castle! Gave me a good laugh. Great game!

This game is really charming. Reminds me of Flat Stanley. I chuckled a lot hearing the "pop" when you turn back into 3d. Cool puzzles too. Nice work!

Hey, this is really cool. Looks like we had a similar idea around squishing the character, but approached it in very different ways.

Everything about the game has charm, from the character model, the sound effects, the music. When I first saw a picture frame, I was wondering if I could interact with it and was not disappointed. Loved that little touch. Also enjoyed that there were areas where you could do shortcuts with the powers.

I enjoyed this and I really liked the idea of changing shape to get out the rooms. It took me a while a few times to find the spots I needed to try and squeeze through but that was part of the fun. Nice choice of music selections and very aptly placed sound effects, especially for the guards. Great job.
