How does your game fit the theme?
As the player navigates through each puzzle, they must cross into the spirit realm to continue their journey. Each time they meet their end, they are transformed into a soul, and a new living player spawns, granting them a chance at a new beginning!

The player will navigate through a series of puzzle levels using these mechanics.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, with my team!

Liked the game. I would be better if you keep a reset button for the level. Pixel art was good and. Nice concept.

Really liked the mini pixel art sprites and tiles! kept finishing levels without getting all the stars, so could be an idea to make collecting stars necessary to pass the level if you want to increase the difficulty.

Great idea! We intended for the stars to be a bonus objective, but some non-skippable stars could be a great idea for a future build, or even keys to unlock the exit.

Insanely solid entry! The concept is really good, the graphics are gorgeous, the level design is on point, the music is amazing AND dynamic, the sounds are really good, the theme is fitting... Honestly, that's awesome, I had a blast!

The two small little things that bother me a bit are that it is tedious to restart a level (just a "R" to reload would have been awesome =p) and having 2 keys to swap is a bit strange to me, I would have liked a single cycling key instead. But these are two really minor points, that's still one of the best entries I've tested so far, congrats!

Thanks for your reply! The team is very flattered.

cool game i liked the game mechanic an going into the upside down world , good sound design too!

Insanly good, but you can't restart nor even go back to the main menu. You are forced to beat everything when you start a level.

Developer

You can go back to the level selection menu by pressing Esc. Thanks for playing!

Excellent work! It's a very innovative platformer with great puzzles, I loved the concept and the details (like the music changing a bit if you swap worlds)

great game overall!! i really liked the interactive part between the two worlds!

You made great design decisions! The levels are very interesting and the way you change between worlds are cool. I loved the levels where you need to die to make the stones to the living guy use in his world. And graphics are nice. A well made game in every aspect. Amazing game!

A very cool game. Pixel art and music represens the game really well. It fits the theme quite well. Level design was a little bit weird sometimes but mostly it was interesting and fun to play. Good job!

This is a very cute and fun game. The pixel art looks great and the music complements the game nicely. The concept of the game is very creative and well-executed. A few of the puzzle solutions felt a bit weird, but I still managed to get 3 stars in all of the levels. The sound effects are nice, but they were a bit sparse and while the music was very nice, it did get a bit repetitive after awhile. But those are pretty minor complaints. Overall, this is a really cool puzzle game!

Honestly a  really cool game the 2 sides of like life and death are very creative and using your past death in one realm progress into the next is a really cool idea and i had fun playing it
