Awesome job, this was tons of fun and I could see myself playing this for hours. The jumping was just a bit too difficult for me.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for trying out our game, we agree that the jumping needs some work, we plan on releasing an updated version of the game when the jam officially ends. I am glad you enjoyed our game and I look forward to trying out your game!

Yes, I do agree that the getting stuck on the wall when holding left or right and jumping was frustrating but I see you guys will get that worked out. Awesome!

Very fun and interesting puzzles would like to see this more expanded on in the future

Developer

I am glad you enjoyed all the puzzles, we are super interested in expanding this game. Thank you so much for taking your time to play our game and I look forward to playing your game!

Really clever design here, I liked the puzzles I saw a lot and the art is charming. Only critique I have is that the controls felt a bit frustrating at times. Particularly in the very start where you have to get the max height jump to just barely get over the obstacles, it made me wonder if I was doing the wrong thing or was just bad.

Developer

I am so glad you enjoyed the game. I 100% agree with you about the jump, we have an updated version of the game ready to be released when the game jam officially ends, it will address many of these issues. Thank you so much for taking your time to play my game, and I look forward to playing your game!

I was surprised how good this game is, really an interesting mechanic with a great level design. Even though im not much of a puzzle guy i really enjoyed it and was really fun. One of the most interesting games i played from the jam so far! 

Developer(+1)

I am so glad that you enjoyed this game, these words mean a lot to me as I spent a lot of my time designing these levels (I was confused by some of the levels I designed). It's so great to hear that someone who's not really into puzzle games enjoyed this game, thank you so much for taking the time to play our game and I look forward to playing your game!

The game looks awesome, sounds awesome, love everything about it. Although… I might be a noob but the hop in the first square is a bit difficult for me lmao

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much, I know that jumping in this game needs more work, you should be able to make that jump if you hold the space bar down, it might take a few tries. We have an updated version of the game ready to release, which will address many problems including this one. I enjoyed your game and thank you for taking your time to try out our game.

The 4 quadrant swap out levels was very cool and I imagine hard to design. Check out my review at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission

Developer

Thank you so much for taking the time to stream and review our game, we do have an updated version that will address some of the problems you mentioned ready to release when the game jam officially ends. I look forward to playing your game!

I had a bug with gems stuck in walls, unfortunately, but the puzzles are very interesting and clever. I like the concept and the fact we're playing a cute little mouse. ♥ The pixel art is cute too.
Keep going, it's really a great job! …ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ

Developer(+1)

I am glad you enjoyed our game. Yes, we did notice that bug of gems stuck in walls, you can fix it by flipping the level back and forth,  but that's just inconvenient for the players, we'll have an updated version of the game when the game jam officially ends. I am glad you also loved our little mouse.  Thank you so much for playing and I loved your game!

I like the idea and the graphics and music are good. The jump and collision could use some adjusting, that was the hardest part of the game.

i really liked the idea and i thought the game was pretty cool! but the jump felt a little unresponsive and sometimes i got stuck in the wall and it was pretty hard to navigate around with that. but overall good game!

Developer

I am glad you liked the idea, we decided to mix platformer and puzzle together and this is the result. We agree that the jump feels very off, we plan on releasing an updated version of the game when the game jam officially ends, thank you so much for taking your time to play our game and leave a comment, I look forward to trying your game!

But.. the jump is harder than puzzle x) Well done tho

Amazing idea. The jumping feels a bit odd sometimes and stops when touching a wall. One time only some of the blue blocks broke from the laser, but with some creative thinking I was able to get the gem nonetheless. Apart from that: great graphics, great concept, good audio and great fun

Developer

Sorry about the jump, we do have an updated version ready to release when the game jam officially ends. Thank you so much for telling me about that laser bug, I'll have to take a look at that. I am glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much for playing our game, I look forward to trying your game!

Submitted(+1)

I think it happened because the laser hit the blocks while the box was still moving. In general the moving boxes seem a bit buggy, maybe just disable their whole hitbox while moving and destroy all balls currently in that box.

creative game! I got stuck with the red diamond and couldn't go into the red area. 

Developer

no worries! we will also post an updated version of our game as their are so much things to improve, we can't cover everything in just a week

The level design is great, 6 levels in each area and 24 levels in total. Each area has specific connection to the other area and each level of area must have connection to at least one of the other level of an area so it won't make the player get stuck. 

The only thing I think a little bit confused is the rock collision while level changes. Sometimes the rock will slide away when the level changes, while sometimes it will has weird collision and won't slide away with the level. (I don't know is this situation is supposed. Since I don't know how to get one of the brown gem in the blue area with wall blocked and eventually I stay in the red area, let the rock stay at the blue area in the previous level. Then I switch the blue level and using this wierd collision to let the rock jump onto that floor so that I can clear the wall.)

So much depth from the space of one screen.  I was hooked early on and had to continue playing until I had finished it. Great design, great game! I'm so glad to have played this game from the thousands submitted! Well done.

Really good level design! <3

Developer

Thank you SO much, I know it's only a short sentence but I really means a lot to me, I spent a lot of time figuring out how to make the levels interesting. I look forward to playing your game!

Great game, I like the idea, though the game takes place in one location it feels so vast anyway

Developer

Thank you for playing, loved your game as well!
