Really cool art style with a nice attention to detail in the animations!
The simplistic music and sounds were fun at first but got quite annoying after the nth repetition of the level.
I thought the level was a bit too bland, knowing we spend so much time on it. I liked the perspectives idea though as it ended being a very trippy experience. I wouldn't have minded the simplicity of the level layout if you had an evolving music with layers being added as we change perspective maybe?
Still a really cool entry, well done!

Amazing game!! Definitely one of the best I've played this jam! I absolutely love the pixel art and the clean vibrant color palette. The concept is just brilliant and so well-executed. and all the animation, especially when you hit the grass is such a lovely touch!

Love this game!! Great job!

I think this a really cool idea, I haven't seen any other game do a similar take to this in the jam. I liked when it had the level mirrored on both the top and bottom of the screen, I felt like that was a really cool effect.

If you wanted to improve, I suggest making the top and bottom levels differ in some way to force the player to have to guide two separate characters through. Forcing the player to make jumps or wait for a platform on only one side could result in some very interesting gameplay.

Check out my game if you get a chance!

Cute game. If I had any complaint it would be the jump of faith. At least the first time I did it. Obviously once I knew it was there I wasn't bothered by it too much but I found myself stopping each time I got to it out of my years of gaming teaching me to be cautious lol.

Anyways good game.

This was a solid platformer entry, that relied on simplicity and tweaking it to get interesting results. The visuals were minimalistic but very clean and polished.  The one level but different perspectives was a strong idea and executed strongly in this game. The main complaint I had though was the jumping. Sometimes the jump would straight up fail. Which if happened towards the end of a level run, would reset you back to the beginning of that stage. Which felt tedious largely due to the fact that it felt like a cheap death and unfair punishment at that point. I did stream it here:

The visuals were simple but very well done! The snow or particles falling were a really nice touch! This game was a lot of fun to play! 

Really enjoyed, good job!

If you have time check out mine!

Overall amazing game. In the second half (the upside down to the right and the double vision parts) are a bit repetitive, but the controls are amazing, and the last perspective if actually amazing! For more in depth feedback, I played your game for a video, which you can find here: https://youtu.be/ISXgt5Q4b9Q

Really like the art style and while I get how your game fits the theme, I think it would've been nice to see changes in the level for the different perspectives to add a puzzle element as well as push the whole "we are all the same, just different perspectives" theme. That sort of changes its meaning though although that could be interpreted as something like the journey is different for everyone but we are all still on the same path. Still really enjoyable nice work!

Very well made game! You have done a lot of work in polishing up the game to make it feel good to play with responsive feedback! I didn't finish the game but the short experience was damn enjoyable!

Your visuals and sound are the strongest part in this game. You've done amazingly well to put in subtle polish to make the game look great, and I applaud you for it. This is probably my new source of inspiration for the level of fidelity I hope to achieve moving forward!

My biggest gripe was the somewhat lacking game design. Fundamentally, this is essentially a platformer with different perspectives and nothing too unique. However, it does not retract from the overall enjoyment of the platformer and you should feel proud of that.

Cool game. I think the way you play the same level should change with the new perspective cuz I felt it was a little repetitive and I didn't see the level become more challenging with the new perspective. Add a coyote time for the jump would go a long way. A look ahead camera could be more pleasing for identifying spikes when they are below you.

Submitted

The art styles amazing, I love the different colour palettes for the different perspectives. And the particles effects showing the direction of gravity is a nice touch. If you're gonna make a post-jam version I'd love to see more levels! I get that one level was the less part for the jams them, but it'd be cool to see more.

I loved the art-style and visuals, they both complemented each other perfectly however, the game started becoming a little repetitive after a while. Would love to see more variations with the levels!

nice art, nice idea, but the execution was a bit lacking. jumping didn't work sometimes, and the level was in my opinion too long, still a good game for your second game, keep it up!

Submitted

Really cute game, great art style, and cool take on the theme. Great Job!

I really dig the art-style and visuals in this game, your color scheme is great! In the end it really gets trippy, I like it :).
One thing though, since all that happens is a flip of the level, the new perspectives don't add much in terms of gameplay. Using the same level, but flipping only player and gravity might help to actually change the level a bit, without actually changing the level.
Nice work!
