I gave up in the level"shooty bois"...It's too difficult for meT_T Very fun game, solid level design. The pixel art is cute^_^ I think maybe just seperate 2 abilities into 2 buttons , and remove the ability select UI will make the game more fluent and easy to control. Overall, I like it.

Please try my game if you will : )

Well polished game with nice sound effects! I found it a bit difficult in the beggining but when I got used to the controls it was fun! Nice work!

Well done! Very tricky to get used to the controls but great idea to chain abilities!

It definitely gives me Boshy flashbacks (though this game definitely has more polish than any I Wanna Be the Guy game I've ever played).

This game is cute jumping on slimes feels great, the mechanic of stopping and changing your abilities on the fly is also great so the core gameplay is good.  Where i want to strangle the dev is on the level design, too many of the sections require perfect timing and if you mess up once is back to start. Try making jumps and hitboxes more forgiving and make the time between failure and a new run as quick as posible so that we can try again.

Theme, it fits you can only use your abilities once and you can sometimes refill your use of abilities with coins.

Originality, 2D platformer with only jumping once or dashing once is pretty cliche, it scores points on freezing time and making it more about the puzzle but its as far as it goes.

Very fun game. The puzzles are fun and the concept of using the skill while airing was very well introduced. Overall, great job.

Finally got around to playing your game, congrats on jamming to the max here! Very charming. And thanks again for playing Einnsámr :)

Fun game with great visual and crunchy sound effects. Only having one use of each ability (while fitting for the jam) was frustrating at first, but I grew used to it and enjoyed that the levels were built around it.

Nice 2D platform game combining puzzle and action! I want to play more levels now~

Nice design, I really like the progression of play and the pace at which the difficulty ramps up! Great job, its very juicy with satisfying sound effects!

        This was a truly great game, great graphics, sound and level design. It was quite challenging, but it didn't feel unfair, I hardly ever felt like a mistake was the games fault. It surprised me with how much content you were able to fit in two days, every time I thought, "There can't be more!" there were more levels! The sprite work is also very nice, all the characters look so happy, even if they are trying to kill you. The controls could use a bit of work, and the fact that you have to press the r button twice to reset was a bit annoying, but overall it was phenomenal. This would be great if it was expanded into a full game with a slightly less steep level curve.

        I noticed that the game was made with Gamemaker Studio 2, and so I was wondering something. My friend and I used unity to make our entry, but I do own Gamemaker Studio 2 and was wondering how it is to use. I have wanted to use it for a game jam or something for a while, but wasn't really sure how. Everyone seems to say how easy it is to use and all that jazz, but I wasn't really sure how I would go about making an actually decent game. Basically, I am kind of wondering how you did it. How were you able to make such a great game in such a short amount of time?

This was a fun idea, but the power-switching mechanics were a bit frustrating to use the way they were implemented...

Wonderful game, very tight controls, I like that you can stop time mid air to plan your next move, if I can change one thing, I make it so after you touch the coin, all your abilities come back without pressing X again, would be much smoother!!

Really well put together with a great concept to boot! I really like how you encounter enemies which demonstrate how the different abilities works before you get to use them. The only thing holding this game away from greatness is the controls, they're a bit awkwardly mapped and I wish you could scroll through the ability wheel using the movement keys instead of z. You have made a great game with even greater potential and I'd love to see this get expanded on!

I've done it! It only took me over 300 deaths.

One of the few games I actually wanted to keep playing and trying. You did a very good use of the theme. Loved it!

High ratings across the board. Very good puzzle design (though quite hard). I quit at the poison = bad level cause it was too difficult, but even the hard puzzles before that I tried and tried til I got them. Great entry.

The controls on this game are impressively tight for a game jam game!  Switching between moves is really satisfying, and the levels are well crafted to test your reflexes.  The only issue that I saw was that the game starts out a bit too difficult in my opinion, but that could easily be adjusted.  A full version of this game could do really well!

I have a question. Are you gonna expand this game? I would really love to play more of it. Even with this difficulty. It's really rewarding. With some more polish and maybe controller support it would be amazing game.

Nice use of the concept, I feel like our games had similar concepts with abilities/colors but yours plays so much better! The art style is really great as well :D
