Nice concept. Enjoy playing it. I've already watched EndMarkGames's stream so it was not that hard for me to complete but you did nice job in level design, art and mechanic. All The Best.

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Submitted

Fun idea!

Submitted

This is fun and challenging, and very well implemented :D great stuff!

Developer(+1)

thanks!

I would hit space bar to switch character,but i was still in control of the previous character, this ended up happening way more than i though, i figured it was due to the fact that maybe the characters had to be near in order for me to switch, but nope, it still ended up happening, it got me a little frustrated, I really want to like this, because its a very good concept. but with that bug fixed in the future I'm sure this will turn into a great game

Developer

you need to have line of sight!

oh! I just re-read your description! that is my fault for not reading everything ( even though you clearly placed it in BOLD LETTERS and is the first thing to read!) omg that is 100 percent my fault, I'm blind and Dumb...I am so sorry.

 I treated this as a thing where you can switch wherever you are, no matter the distance. then I got no complaints then! solid game I changed your rating, AGAIN IM DUMB FOR MISSING THAT....

hahahaha, no problem! I'm happy you enjoyed! :D

This is one of my favorite entries so far. I played on stream with my buddy and although it’s not meant to be a two-player game, it made it more hectic and crazy playing that way. You can watch the stream from all the moment-to-moment feedback, but overall I thought this was a fantastic entry. Loved the effects when you solve a puzzle and the mechanic is really unique and fun to solve movement puzzles around. I can only imagine how many unique and cool levels you could build out of this.

Great work. My only nitpick is that sometimes the sprite extension indicating which character we were controlling would be incorrect, this happened whenever the line of sight was broken and we tried to swap, the triangle would move even though we didn’t take control of that character.

Thanks a lot for playing this on stream! I’ll definitely have a look!

Ohhhhh that's really intriguing and unique. I really like the concept. The gameplay itself could benefit from some polish (it was a bit confusing when the arrow switched character but the control didn't) but I definitely see the potential for some really high brow puzzling going on there. Keep it up!

Thanks so much! That bug is because I forgot to add the check of wether there is LOS or not 💀

Wow, some real thought has gone into this. Devilish, and far too much for my brain sometimes, because I'm an old man, but the concept underneath is so simple yet executed so well. 

Developer

ayy thanks! Thought did go into this, it just came out buggy haha.

Submitted

nice but buggy as i cannot switch characters unless they are right next to each other for some reason 

Developer(+1)

They need to be in the line of sight!

Submitted

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Submitted

These character switching abilities provided some fun puzzles. 

Submitted

Good idea but you can't always jump with the other character.

Submitted

There is some bugs on when I click space sometimes it doesn't switch the character, but I see what you tried here and if it work great then I would probably enjoy it more. Overall great ability just needs a bit of polishing.

Developer

Thanks! It might be because the line of sight isn’t that accurately visualised 🤷‍♂️

Cool idea! I got the characters to the first spot but the game seems to reset when you move out after. Seems like there's quite a few bugs here, but the premise is really good. Character idea should be pretty fun once everything is working correctly!

Developer

Thanks! Ugh, yeah there are many bugs, I don't know how they slipped in!

Submitted

Sadly not really playable because of the bug, but still a cool idea.
I'm looking forward to see how this develops!

Submitted

Really like how you can control 2 players that help each other. Once the bugs with switching between characters is fixed I think it will go from a good game to a really great game

Developer

Thanks! I hate the bugs too :,(

Submitted

I noticed that if you switch character midway in air, the other character can use it as a new platform. Please keep it. It gives the game so much potential. You have to work on your controller code, because it can easily bug up, but overall I like the idea

Developer(+1)

yeah, that is intentional. The controller is a but buggy, I'll fix it next round!

Submitted

sorry for asking, but I'd love if you also check out my submission

Submitted

Interesting enough, although I think it bugged-out as only one character would jump, even if I switched. Giving the benefit of doubt though, I can see a lot of potential for puzzle-platforming here. Nice work.

Developer

Thanks! Never heard of that one, weird.

A little buggy but fun swapping ability, good job!

Submitted(+1)

A little buggy (the character swapping didn't always work for me), but still really fun.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, it's a bit buggy, I kinda ran out of time and couldn't fix it :(
