That is a really cool take on the theme!

Simple but well executed game, a pity that it has no sound.

Hey, I just played your game and I really liked it. The movement feels kinda smooth and I really like it. I just rated it and I would be pleased if you rate my game too

I really like the game! The controls are great and the idea fits the theme.

Great job mate, the game's amazing, if there was a bit more time I wonder how far this could go

The game concept is just amazing. At first I thought it was a platformer and the way u introduced the twist was just amazing. Good job! If possible do try my game :)

This is such an awesome concept, I went into the game thinking it was just a simple platformer, but it was so much better. These levels are definitely very challenging, I tried to hold the shift key thinking it would work but I ended up falling into the void, so no exploits for this game! I had so much fun playing this game, spot on for the theme, excellent work!

Thank you! I am glad you liked it

I like the simple Design. It really fits the game Idea. Keep going!

Man this was a good game! With a little more polish to it, such as some sound design or more level mechanics, this would be absurdly good! Also I now know how to question my reality, which is just a nice life tip you have given me! Thank you for creating this game! Keep up the good work dude!

Hey I liked this!

Nice sets of levels! I especially liked the one where you need to run and phase through the pink blocks by timing your shift presses.

The last level was... very easy, haha, is it even supposed to be beaten that easily?

Anyway, I enjoyed this small game, well done!

Developer(+1)

Yes the last level is supposed to be easy. I was running out of ideas that late into the night and just thought maybe some players forget the mechanic somehow…

Glad you liked it

Really interesting concept! 

I really liked the mechanic that was introduced here, also the movement felt really responsive and interesting to play with. The game was quite hard at some point, since it was quite hard to move or jump while pressing Shift. Perhaps a toggle or allowing players to rebind the controls could be a solution for that.


I also would've liked to see some sound design. Maybe a cool track or some sound effects.

Nevertheless, great game. Would def like to play a more polished version in the future!

Thanks for the feedback!

Both sound and control rebinding were on my to-do list initially, but as I only had 4 days time in total I wasn’t able to implement them.
