- One of the best games I played. Such a unique new innovation & style using emails as a platformer. I love the visual style and responsiveness/smoothness of the player. Great job!
- The concept of the game is really interesting. Using the email windows as platforms is an interesting way to mix platforming and puzzles, however you are able to move position locked windows by resizing them.
- By far the most creative take on the theme I've seen so far! Out of the box! Took a heck of a lot of thinking even in the early stages, which is good! Good pacing with integrating new mechanics and lots of fun.
- I loved everything about this submission! The puzzle platforming was super clever design, and I loved that there was a story going on in the background as well.
How does the game fit into the theme?
Forwarded By is a unique puzzle platformer with a story that is built around the theme. Taking an atypical approach to "Keep Moving Forward," the player manipulates the environment to move through platforms of emails, only proceeding once they reach the forward button. In addition to the journey of moving forward, you are traveling through the lost digital memories of a laptop left by a stranger on a train.

Hi, I'm hedge one of your judges! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in at 1:17:28 <3 (Part 2)
A very good game, an unusual puzzle
Excellent solid game! Highly rated :) One of the best.
Very original! Love the idea and the implementation. I did a bunch of levels, I would only say that I think it get's a bit too easy over time. Great work though, keep it up!
Really nice idea, extremly unique and fun. Good work honestly from the design to the graphics to the movements
Really well made game and fun too! Cool Idea for a puzzle platformer I enjoyed it!
Incredible game!!! The puzzles were super fun and clever, really interesting take on the theme! Good job!!!
The concept is very good, really liked it, challenging puzzles!
Absolutely amazing game idea. Fascinating!
Interresing concept !
Loved this game, definitely one of my favourites! Amazing take on the theme, great presentation and fantastic humour!
Honestly the best game I have played so far (apart from mine of course)! The idea, the art style, the theme 10/10. So creative and the entire game had me rattling my brain and trying to think outside the box while also not being super super difficult. Well done on this, should be proud
nice man, good puzzles
That's great idea! Its really impressive that you made a well polished game in this little time. Nothing to add, good work!
This is a really cool concept, nice one!
I really like the concept and the execution here! Well made
i really like the resizing/moving mechanic, very interesting! the emails are funny too
Super unique approach and I wasn't expecting to play for as long as I did! The resizing and position lock were both great mechanics with the player movement, and I actually stopped to read the message lines along the way (funny stuff XD) great work.
Original and unique gameplay! - havn't seen something like this before! Great work!
This game is soo cool and original. I love the mechanic and the idea. I think with more variation on the gameplay you could make a very interesting game!!
