How does your game represent Mode?
Your gun has two modes, red and blue. Neither is useful on its own. But together, they explode.

Nice use of sound to make the game have nice feedback. The puzzles didn't feel too obtuse either. Well done!

Biggie BlasterProbably my favourite entry i've played so far. I'm not great at puzzles, so i thought the difficulty was balanced really well, fun to complete and kept me wanting to see the next board. The explosion sound effects were really satisfying, too.

It Brews Below (Bigmode Jam 2023)Cool idea, just needs some polishing, like easier level restarts and id rather be able to shoot the other color with the right mouse.

Find The Big ModeI collected 1200 orbs before I gave up. I thought about pushing it to 10k/10k to see if it overlapped the rest of the UI text but there's like 500 entries in this jam and I wanna try some other ones lol. Had fun with this one though, well done! Really solid entry

Counted Out - BigMode Jam 2023Cool game, but would have been more convenient to just have a separate button for shooting blue and red

Stack it & Break it (BigModeJam2023)Yeah, I definitely understand that. I initially made it a toggle because I felt that reinforced the "mode" theme better. And later I discovered that I needed a little delay when switching modes to prevent the player from completely spamming through some situations. That would have been even more awkward with separate buttons. I think, anyway.
Really Cool! I loved the explosions and animations. The player is a bit hard to control since the jumps are very small but other than that I thought the presentation was really good.

Abyssal AscentAwesome and very well fleshed out execution of a super simple concept. I like the combination of traditional puzzle logic with precision aiming, it’s unique. Great game.

DigitalterReally well executed! I loved the sound design, made the game feel so cool. The puzzles were fun to solve.

Dual DestinyThat was fantastic! Only thing that could make it better is if it had music :P
Submitted
Monkey ModeThanks!
FWIW, I made a few starts at music, but always I decided that it was cluttering up the the already pretty full soundscape. I think I would need to do a pretty drastic EQ pass through the sound effects to make room for any music. But the sounds were working together so well that I didn't want to compromise them!
Great work! Love the concept and really enjoyed the game play revolving around it. Lovely puzzle game, nice work!

Bobby Wants SoupThis is the kind of games i love playing during gamejams. Just a nice simple concept that plays really well followed up with some challenging puzzles and levels to explore the mechanics. Great job! :)

Streamer of The YearGreat concept that's executed really well. I had a lot of fun with the puzzles - I'd love to see it expanded! As mentioned by others, I also enjoyed the sound design.
The main frustration was the length of time it took to change between modes - I'd personally look to shorten that if possible.
Great job!

Brightened PastOverall a really good idea. the sound design blew me away tbh. its the very first thing that stood out. good execution on the theme and a solid game. good job!!!!!
Submitted
Snack Attacka really good and simple idea, executed well, too. the sound design in this is really good by the way. if anything i kinda wish it was longer (and also the last level had a bunch of bits in it that i didn't understand but i could beat it anyway? that was a little unfulfilling but it was still fun)
