Ohh! The Neon Square has returned!

Turning off certain controls is a stroke of genius and really made for some interesting level design (which you did well!). I wasn't much intrigued by the audio if I may be perfectly honest, but everything else in the game was just top-notch, the controls, the responsiveness, the UI, the menu, the art, the level design, great submission!

I love how much I hated this game...

Very nice! The difficulty curve is pretty steep, but the levels are well designed and the art is great. Love it!

Looks and plays great! Awesome idea having a level in two directions. Well polished, could be a full game :)

Most innovative game I've seen out of a game jam (or anywhere) in a long time. This should be on Steam.

Game feels fair and fun to play! Was too impatient to keep progressing but love how tightly the level design is done around the control loss. Aesthetic of the game looks great too. Great interpretation of the prompt and implementation as a core mechanic!

wow it is a bit difficult but i love it lol gives me celeste feel. I will love to see some consumable buffs that restore my control so I can plan out all my moves before I act.

You all nailed this game. The controls feel great, tight, and responsive. The visuals are minimalistic but also stunning. The stereo sounds are so immersive and all fit together very well. The idea of disabling some controls temporarily is extremely well executed and the level design around it is very clever; each level had a unique twist to it, I never felt like any of the levels were filler. Small detail that was absolutely my favorite: The little blue fireworks at the end. Those put a smile on my face. :)

Nice-looking graphics and jumpy gameplay make me want to enjoy it more.

Feels very clean to play and cool concept! unfortunately I'm not a good enough gamer to make it very far😂

No worries, it's a tough game. Thanks for playing!

Such a well executed concept! Waiting for the controls to be restored creates very interesting situations. The graphics are great, and the effects, animations and controls are satisfying and so consistent that they keep you playing even after losing several times.

This game was fun! Irritating, but fun. I was only able to get through the first couple of levels before giving up, but I enjoyed the repetition of the gameplay. I love the neon look, and the soundtrack is great! I love the way you implemented the count down too, makes me wish time would go faster.

It's definitely a tough game, so getting through the first couple of levels is still a nice accomplishment! Thanks for playing!
