How does your game fit the theme?
THE START OF THE GAME BEGINS WITH THE RECTANGLE CHARACTER. ONCE YOU GET TO THE END OF THE LEVEL, YOU START THE BEGINNING OF THE TRIANGLE CHARACTER. THE END OF THE (rectangles level) IS THE BEGINNING (of the triangles level) :) *sorry, didn't realize CAPS was on :/

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I developed and designed everything in the game, except for the sound effects and background music (both of which I gave credit to in the end of the game)

WebGL didn't work :(

I really really appreciate a platformer with good physics. Adding in acceleration and deceleration time, variable jump heights and double jump heights all make the game feel much better than most platformers I've played in this jam. Also a big fan of the art style and music :) My feedback is that I there maybe couldve been a few more checkpoints (I know it's supposed to be hard, but having to complete too many precise maneuvers in a row before reaching a checkpoint can just be frustrating).

Overall very good job! Sidenote, I thought it was funny how similar our games are but they go in very different directions in terms of vibe. Same color palette, square character, precision platformer

Developer

Thank you sooooo much for this feedback! Super awesome if you! I will definitely make the game easier afterwards because it seems to be a common criticism lol! 


also… I will most definitely play your game as soon as I can, thank you again :) <3

This game blew my mind!!

The audio is perfect match for the game!!

It is so perfectly made!!

But, You should have turned the anti-aliasing on. This would give it a better look.

Overall, Good luck for the jam!

This game has really great graphics with good color combination, and your take on the theme was pretty creative. Good job!

Developer

Thank you so much! Really thankful for that <3

Nice Juice, i like the level design and UI, seems very polished

Developer

Aww, thank you for that <3

The game was really fun for what I played. I couldn't get past the elevator part of the rectangle level. I might have been able to with a lot of practice and patience but it is really difficult to see where the platforms were and when to jump. Over all though I loved playing this game. It felt so smooth and responsive.

Developer

Thank you so much for all your feedback, it's super helpful :)
And yeah, I'm pretty sure that's where everyone starting destroying their computers, I didn't really realize how hard it was :/
But again, thank you so much <3

Submitted

Nice control, the picture is not bad. Way to go! :D

Developer

Hey! Thank you for noticing my picture, I was actually quite proud of it :)

Submitted

I really like the sound and art design and the the atmosphere was really nice! Overall just really nice and fun!

Developer

Aww, thank you <3

I love the music, aestechics and overall visual! It is great! Very good atmosphere! 

Developer

Thank you so much! It means a lot <3

Very beautiful art style and music!!! The animations were also smooth, everything was a pleasure to play.  The platforming was hard but not impossible and I loved that you start with triple jump, it allows for more dangerous obstacles.

Great work!!

Developer

Thank you so much for all your feedback! It really means a lot :)

Submitted

You really nailed the controller ! Everything feels smooth and precise, sometime all you need is basic shapes, amazing work !

The only things is that moving platforms get frustrating when you do not see them directly in frame, would be nice to setup different cameras on the level

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for this comment! :)

And yeah, I realize that now. While I was playing through the game I knew the exact timing for everything, so I kind of grew blind to that part... But I like your idea with setting up different cameras, I'll 100% do that after the game jam :)

Submitted

Good realisation. I liked simplistic design with colour scheme and very good controlls. For me, as I also created platformer, it was usefull.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I'll go play your platformer :)

Submitted

Fun little platformer. The triple jump was nice to pull off and all of the little polish details are great like the squash and stretch of the player and the cutscene at the start. Unfortunately didnt have time to test out the triangle character since the game was very long. The music complimented the gameplay nicely and the visual style with simple shapes worked well

Developer

WOW! This is some great feedback! I really REALLY appreciate it <3
Yeah, next time, I'll make sure to go back and fourth between characters, and make it a tad easier :)
But again, I really appreciate it :) 

Submitted

Very cool! I love the colors and atmosphere.

Developer

Thank you so much! The colors were fun to match :)

Submitted

Good job, I like the nice and simple look!

Developer

Thank you! That's very nice of you :)

Submitted

Tight platformer controls.  Awesome music choice.  Nice simple graphics.  Overall frustrating, but great job!

Developer

Thanks so much for the feedback! I really appreciate it :)
