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

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 :(

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

Through The HyperSpaceThe 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.

Death-WishVery 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!!

Miles From HomeYou 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

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

Little Red Doom HookFun 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
