How does the game fit the theme?
Our character Nothing can go wrong, but our other character Everything cannot. But Nothing is need to Everything to be in existence.
That`s why Everything and Nothing should work together restore to balance.

Thank you :) We're glad you liked it!
It’s an amazing game; love the art, music, and overall vibe of the game. But man, what I wouldn’t give for some checkpoints. I love the mechanics of the game, but I just couldn’t finish it, because when you make 1 mistake, you have to do all the waiting and platform puzzles all over again. That’s just frustrating.
Other than that, you put up a great game with lots of potential. Well done you guys :)
Thank you for your comments and feedback :) We are glad you liked it ! We will update the game later.
Love the art style and direction and I could see this as a full game. I had some trouble seeing the spikes early on. And I pressed R a bit too much when I wanted to press E. Otherwise a great entry!
Thank you for your comments and feedback :) We are glad you liked it ! We will update the game later.
I found the game quite frustrating and a bit too punishing! But I like the Idea, and the visuals were great!
Thank you for your comments and feedback. We are glad you liked it ! We will update the game later.
cute and good game
Thank you :) We're glad you liked it!
cool i enjoyed it
Thank you :) We're glad you liked it!
Cool and unique mechanic! It's a bit too hard sometimes, and a bit too long of a wait for the platform to appear. Also it was strange for me that the boxes move behind the tree but the character above it.The visuals and music are great.
Keep it up!
Thank you for your comment and feedback. We will fix some issues in the upcoming updates. We are glad you liked it !
love the visuals! it's so much fun switching characters, and they have different mechanics! super cool
Thank you :D
The audio and visuals are very pretty, they caught my attention. The mechanics are super cool, but I found waiting on platforms and the lack of checkpoints to be a little frustrating.
Thank you for your comment and feedback. We will fix some issues in the upcoming updates.
Super clever gameplay. Such a good and difficult game.
Thank you :) We are glad you liked it !
Sometimes, creativity doesn't come from adding things, it comes from taking things away. It's super clever to remove something so common as moving left in a platformer and build a game around that. Very clever and the music is great too!
Thank you :) We are glad you liked it !
Played and rated! i get it, you couldn't figure out how to make your character move left so you called it a 'mechanic'!
I'm joking of course, that was a really cute game, quite difficult at times, really great animiation and visuals, great job :)
Thanks ! :)
The concept is just peak🤌, the story elements, they are just amazing.
Really amazing work, keep it up!!

Great pixel art and an engaging story! Well done!

Hello, the game is creative and original! I really like the idea of never being able to walk backwards, it adds a unique challenge that makes finishing the game even more satisfying. The calm and relaxing music, along with the beautiful textures, create a great atmosphere. Really well done!
Thank you :) We are glad you liked it !
A creative title, with very fitting and potential concept.
Cute visual, chill vibe audio.
Still need a lot of work on how to improve gameplay, level design, user experience. But congrats on your first game jams! Keep getting better at making game!

This is really really good game, amazing disclosure of the theme, visuals pleasing to the eye. Great job!
Thank you :) We are glad you liked it !
