Well done !

I think we have a winner with this one. Graphics and level design are very clever. Just polish it and add more levels and release it as a full game. I'd love to play it.

Congrats.

Please consider playing mine:

An excellent proposal with a pleasant graphic section very well taken care of.

Really really good looking, and interesting mechanic. About the only issue I see is at the moment it's easy to skip a lot by just throwing through most of the level. Easy to fix with some time on level design ofcourse!

Love the pixel art of it!
Nice work!

I played your game over and over, I liked the concept, the graphics, the sound, the shard mechanics.

Would love to see this become a full game.

If had one suggestion it would be to make the controls a bit more responsive.

We made a game too. https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/461449

I really liked your game! It feels so good when you throw the shard, I even forgot I could move using WASD after a while. The only thing I would change is to make it more apparent when you can't use the shard anymore when you don't hit an enemy or wall.

We also made a game and would love your feedback! If you think you have the courage & wits to help the Juan and Only Jelly Knight recover his human form, the challenge awaits you here

I'm literally stunned! I wonder how many people was working on the game because graphics is impressive! 15/15

Fun concept, very well executed. I would definitely buy a full-length, polished version of this.

The single most beautifully crafted and fleshed out game in this entire game jam. I and many others as it appears would like to see this get made into a real game

(+2)

You should absolutely flesh this out into a full game. The concept and aesthetic are really great, and the movement feels amazing. I was reminded of the Celeste episode of GMTK when I was just having fun warping around in the last room. Best game in the jam in my opinion

Physics was a not really reactive enough for me. The desing was super cool. The concept too !

I really enjoyed and wish to have more levels :D

(+2)

Love it. Wish I could move a little tighter and had more control about when my shard stopped, wish I could recall the shard if I had a bad throw (IE, into spikes).

(+1)

Love this! There is potential for a lot of advanced platforming  by teleporting before the shard hits the wall , jumping mid air and/or diagonal throwing.

Fantastic feel, everything seems so smooth and natural. The teleportation mechanic feels so satisfying as well! Amazing job, guys!
