It was a pleasant experience with interesting cross-dimensional platforming. Good work!
The only thing that i dont like - changing dimensions on a spacebar, it fucked me up so many times on the third level :(.

Really cool game, platforming feels nice and I quite like the change in vibes when entering the void! Not a fan of the lives system though, I think it's a very annoying way of extending a game's playtime in a non meaningful way. Other than that though the game was pretty fun and a welcome challenge!

The Interdimensional MageYour entry is very similar to mine and since I am so used to use WSAD to move and your game doesn't have it - I understand your comment on my game better^^
Anyway I would prefer if jump was on space or anyother key but up - I found wall jumping very hard with switching sides and tapping up in the right order all with one hand cramped on the arrow keys while the other hand waits on q
Also since your other dimension is completly hidden and you have to swap mid jump it makes actually hitting your target very difficult and you have a timer on the second dimension - so I never got past the first dimension swapping level....

Time SwapGreat work! Satisfying jump mechanics, cool use of the theme (love the creepy vibe the alternate dimension has), and the time limit is funny!
A time limit coupled with the "start over if you restart 3 times" thing is a little too strict for my tastes, but I've never been great at platformers. If I could pick just one, I prefer the time limit.
Still, nicely done overall!!

The Double Life of Flying VThe game only has 8 levels and a boss so I was worried that people would be able to steam roll the entire thing in less than five minutes if I didn't force them back to start. I didn't originally plan for it to be that way as I was going to do more levels but fantastic criticism :).
Thanks for playing!
The void is just another plane with different platforms in it, so you can swap between them while jumping to make platforms and walls appear where there are none to progress. As in the third level when you swap into the void the platforms in the middle of the level change allowing you to time your jumps and make it safely across by switching each time after you press the jump button.
The style you put together is really cool! It's simple but pretty much everything was well executed. It's also pretty neat how small the build is :D
I got stuck after I fully died once, it sent me back to 1st level but the character reset inside the ground sprite toward the end of the level and I couldn't move.

WeldingHi, congrats on your game! :) I really enjoyed it, especially the mechanic of making a long jump backward. The mechanic of altering planes is also very good, but I felt the lack of some more introductory levels. The first level with the mechanic is already quite difficult, and it took me quite a few minutes to complete it... But apart from that, it's a great game, congratulations.
If you have some spare time, please try out my game. It's a classic space shooter from the 80s but with a personal touch. Please leave your honest feedback.

Binary BlastersI enjoyed the most of it, except the time limit, but that's really just personal preference. Well done, game feels polished.

Shattered DimensionA fun platformer with some interesting mechanics. I enjoyed the wall jumping and the dimension change where you had different level layouts in each dimension, requiring the player to use both dimensions at the right time to get through the level. I couldn't get past the ladder bit though! Overall, very enjoyable! Good job!

ChronoKillWall jump was very fun and punching the enemies in the end made me laugh everytime. The dimension part of the platformer was cool as well. I think this kind of game would be for sure something what speedrunners would love to play, with more levels and mroe difficulty. It was fun to find different ways of beating the level (walljump at the correct time with dimension change, made you jump far :D)
Although I couldn't get past the ladder level, since once I pressed UP I couldn't do anything anymore, which was weird. At the end of the ladder I could jump again but just couldn't make it. Once I restarted there as well, it took me all the way to the start (maybe I lost enough lives or something that I didn't realise)
Submitted
The Struggles WithinOh that makes complete sense! Just somehow missed it :)
Oh I don't think the ladder was a problem so to speak, it was more about once you started climbing you couldn't do anything before you were up the stairs, so it kind of forced the climb up, what I would have thought/liked was more of a free up/down movement on the ladders and jumping off when you want.
Very nice and polished game, the babies climbing trees really cracked me up. :D
Great job!

Quest Of The Lost HoundLove the wall jump, loved the animations and sound. Overall a very fun experience and a good time. Well done!

Dimensional Shiftsimple game and easy to play. Love the concept. good job for finishing the game!
Submitted
Egoistic SoulIt's been said before but the wall jump is awesome. Very fun game, and maybe if it was ever expanded you could add something like a challenge time for every level that's even quicker than the regular time limit. The level design is also really good! Would play again.
Plus not a glitch but if you wall-jump & explode at the same time you get sent flying. It's funny
Submitted
Dual ControlLoved it! Like others, like the wall jumping. The idea of dimension shifting for alternate elements of the levels, yet they work together to help complete the level, outstanding. Graphics and sound were charming and the music just right for the game style. I personally would've like a jump key on the left, but that's just personal preference. Brilliant job, especially considering it was your first game and jam! Well done!
Submitted
It's A 1-Bit LifeThe wall jump is so satisfying the whole game could have been that :D Encountered a weird bug where i was on ladders everything explode i change dimensions at the time and everyone died and player character survived it got me stuck in the level. Apart from that pretty fun
Submitted
CyberAttackGood job with this. Good number of mechanics and indeed the wall jumping is nice
