Played f version:

What happened to main menu ost, it was my fav song!

lv4 last bullshit with the jumper switch at the flag was magnificent, for a full minute I stared at the screen asking myself if I needed to reset.

 lv5  "two feet on two buttons" seems pretty scummy. I got it soon enough, and it's a fun mindfuck, you should make earlier levels cheesable with this knowledge. (I assume super jumpers with ??? is a placeholder?)

lv6 LMAO. Best level, with a death at 1s and the juggle of buttons+ lever. 

lv7 very nice whipping level. Jumper question, the little jumper (top right) is a placeholder sprite? because it's bad design to have a puzzle piece that sometimes acts in a way, sometimes another. 

lv8 tip maybe it's a little too vague. I remembered your progress post "toad will enact revenge to all guilty in poke order", so I dunno if I would really solved this with out it.

Bonus level was super hard. Fair because you just really need to think at the final outcome of the map (what buttons I need pressed, aka how many alive fairies I need to win). I love that in a way you can decide what fairy get eaten and who survives. Make it more often, because it can cause a waifu war.

The way you can hover the bonus levels unlocked from jump around is logical, but confusing. 

I stopped there because I wanna finish all my reviews today.  

I liked the part where you poke toads. Good game.

Though at certain points my fairy started walking to the bottom right. I have a HOTAS plugged in so maybe the game was detecting the input from that. Strange that it didn't detect it from the very beginning if so.

I recorded playing games with commentary, and your game is one of them.

Here's the link to the whole DD50 folder:

I got tunnel visioned.

Cute as always! You can poke can poke fairies, very nice. No witch fairy, very sad.

Thought the test levels were fiiine, maybe with a little too many things I'd say.

I thought these two were the weakest:

* Three lanes: I just thought the first part was a bit annoying, it's just touching buttons in the right order, the puzzle was really the second part, which was fine.

* Priorities: Not sure if I got the intended solution, but it seems like an exploit to me, I didn't find it really intuitive. I guess it's a rule you can roll with, but I wasn't too keen on it, and I wasn't a fan of how the level was discovering that sort of corner case interaction.

For levels I liked, probably these two:

* Dream jumping: It's just kind of different from the other puzzles in a good way.

* Base of operations: Not a test level, but hadn't played it before. I reeeeeally liked this one. So, I actually struggled a lot in this level, but I wasn't just stuck, there elements in the level were just right to keep testing out ideas until I eventually find the solution. I felt like it built a narrative too (for me at least), because I tried to find a way to start from the right, got stuck, then to the left, got stuck for a different reason, which really baffled me, until I found the solution, and I was stuck because something I was assuming was wrong and me go 'ohhh wait'. I liked the level that's now a bonus one for that reason too, although I couldn't solve that one.

Have a video:

Hello, had a go at the test levels. Love the new poke reactions.

-Kinda weird how in Test-2 the blue levers aren't synched so they all depress when you step on the first one.

-Asking for a fairy to stand on 2 different tiles in Test-5 is really weird. It feels like cheating.

-In Synchronized Jumping, I managed to poke the toad on the upper right with the blue fairy so fast that it was still chewing on the busy fairy that had been standing on the right blue switch. Doesn't break the level, but it seems unintended.

-The way fairies jump when standing both on a button and the force field arrow that it activates feels super jank, notable in Synchronized Jumping and Forced Advance.

-You might also wanna consider not having the fairy turn when flung by a force field. I think it'd look better in some situations.

-I genuinely don't see how Forced Advance can be completed. There doesn't seem to be any sequence of moves that can get the blue fairy from poking the bottom right toad up to the flag.

You seemed to be worried about the brave fairy being OP in the threads, but she doesn't seem too bad.

*edit*

I saw your first hint for Forced Advance in the thread and was able to solve it. Now that I understand the solution, I think it's actually a really good use of misdirection and I hope you don't change it too much. I think giving the player an earlier level that uses the same way of getting around would be a better way to make it less of a leap in logic.

Played through all the test levels besides Forced Advance on 20d. New animations look nice and slick, puzzles felt fair for the most part. A couple of the levels were way too easy, like the one where you whip back and forth across platforms or using a wall to block a fairy mid jumppad crossing. For whatever reason the introduction to the whip being used to ignore a poke was kind of hard for me to get. After I figured though it makes enough sense. Challenge levels are pretty good, Synchronized Jumping is a bit much to parse all at once though. I kind of lucked out and got it after only a couple tries.

Forced Advance:  this level must be torture or something. I spent an hour+ on this and it seems impossible to me still. As far as I can see, once a fairy goes in the bottom right they are stuck unless they're thrown out(the whip fairy could, but she would never have use going down there).  On top of that, the blue fairy has to go there so that the toad can be poked. At that point, the only way for her to escape is with a muscle fairy. However, the muscle fairy gets stuck which is game over, since the blue fairy has to be thrown across the pit to reach the goal. Maybe I'm forgetting a mechanic, but it seems impossible no matter how I try to piece it together in my mind.

Very cool and fun game! I loved the art for the characters (why is the blue fairy SO smug?) and the tutorial screens, and the music is relaxing and fits perfectly with the rest of the game.

Only complaint I can think about is the constant switching between fairies, specially when it involves multiple red strong fairies, since it meant:

• Having to switch from blue to red.
• Manually grabbing the blue one with the red one.
• Having to switch back to the blue after she has been thrown.

Makes some stages more tedious than anything else. If the red fairy could grab the blue one when the blue one pokes the red one, that'll make it much more straight forward, since it'll be:

• Blue pokes red.
• Red grabs blue, then throws her.
• You are automatically back to controlling the blue one (since you really never switched fairies) and are ready to keep poking around.

Aside from that, I really enjoyed my time with the game. Puzzles were becoming more complex at a nice pace, and I never felt bored or frustrated. Hope to see you making it, the game deserves it.

Excellent game. You clearly know what you're doing, so any feedback I give will be more personal than anything. If I was making the game, I would completely get rid of the timing element. I played most of the early stages and it never once was necessary to the puzzle. This change can achieved by making the toads tongue you instantly, but only when you try to touch the pole. The timing adds an element of mechanical skill which doesn't need to be there and shrinks your potential audience. Also, I would change the pole to be pokable instead of needing to stand right on it. It's not consistent with how you interact with the toads. 

This has been one of my favorites from DD. I don't usually play puzzle games but the UI and music of this one really made me continue going for more. I played quite a bit! I hope to see this project concluded.

Nice puzzle game:

-buff fairy is cursed

-mechanics are nice and simple to understand, feels like anyone can pick it up and play it

-I feel like it needs some extra animations in some places, like when a Fairy is mid air(they just stand idle)

-Laughed my ass every time I shot a Fairy into the atmosphere when I activated a wall while they were standing on it.

-I now understand why the vorefolks were horny for this

Anyways, a charming game so far!

I played for a while, made it to 'Caution Is For Fools'. The wake up noise especially and the poking the strong fairy is super cute. Exceptionally cute well made game, I don't have any suggestions. I liked seeing the smart fairy in a brick costume. 

Reminds me of the games from Miniclip, nostalgic.

Probably my only thought I'd have is to have a bit of squinting or some other expression change when a fairy pokes a toad. Would fit the smug aura I'm getting from them.

I poked the first toad... he ate me... I heard what I thought was a victory noise... no secret levels??

I'm on my laptop, does it have to be on a save where I've already poked ALL toads?

I don't think it's your fault, but itch is being really janky with your game. The itch.io app on my laptop won't install your game. On my desktop, it wouldn't pull the latest version.

Feedback video: 
TLDW: fun game, maybe make the select circle color based on the fairy you select.

Great stuff as always. The music is cute, the game oozes charm. I don't have any real critique, but I did record myself playing some of the test area levels since I figured that has a chance of being helpful to you. I didn't provide commentary, but I hope it helps or at least provides some amusement for you. The new levels were all fun, but I did get filtered in the end.

I played the hidden levels. Don't have all that much to say though, just keep doing what you're doing!

• Wood and sand tilesets in space are a bit odd, I guess it would be pretty hard to make something more space station-y than the metal one when its miniature. Maybe an asteroid tileset could work?
• The solution to Dream Jumping felt a bit bullshitty - having the fairy stand on the tile borders so she's on both at the same time felt unintended. However, maybe it flows better when the level would be integrated into the game properly.
• Is whipping a fairy, having the whipper eaten and poking it at the same time intended? Because I solved some puzzle that why but I'm not sure if it was actually intended.
• The spades level was my favorite.
• The whip fairy is great, seems like you can do some interesting puzzles with it.
• Whipping was misspelled:

Amazing pixelart and fun levels.

The puzzles picked up complexity at a good pace and I'm really curious about how complex the final ones will get.
The whip fairy levels were intuitive too, I had no trouble with them and imo they don't need any change.

Great stuff, GMI for sure.

I likely haven't played in 8 months or so and I know it's probably not new, but good job on all the polish. It's all the extra effects, animations and sound design that makes an otherwise simple game much more appealing.

So, for the new levels,

Juggling is pretty good, Dream Jumping is good, Three Lanes is good but a bit frustrating every time you have to re-try, twist at the end is nice but otherwise I wouldn't say it's challenging as much as you just have to pay attention, it's fine if it's unique compared to the levels around it. It makes me think I'd like bigger levels but bigger levels would need a rewind mechanic. In general, there's a lot of cases like "I forgot to poke the toad" or I moved this character wrong this one time" that would've been much less frustrating with rewind mechanics that many games have but I understand that such a mechanic would not be easy to add at all. Mild Annoyance got a lot of those "wish I could undo" moments from me.

Priorities' tip about priorities is misleading as to what the solution is even though it is a good thing to know. I thought I'd have to overwrite an existing priority, but in the end the solution is that you have to make it ignore the poke entirely. Interesting solution nevertheless.

Four for Four doesn't work because the most obvious solution after you're done with rescuing the poke-fairy is to just have all fairies eaten, it looks like there's supposed to be something with blocking one of the toads but the solution wouldn't be very original even then.

Jump Around was a little awkward to execute, otherwise fine.

Overall, I'd like to say that mechanics focusing on the "fairies poking toads" interaction are the best since it's what the game's about. So, the whip-fairy being able to poke the toad which is different from a regular poke is good. Might be annoying when players forget they used the wrong sort of poke but it fits the game the best.
