Pretty nice entry. I made it to the level with the two spinning rings of platforms. The idea of loosing controls has been done quite a bit for this jam, but you implemented it quite well. Though, you do need to time your movement quite well and it really becomes trial and error to figure out how to complete a level.

Loved this! 😍 Big fan of puzzly games, and this is a great one. I see you used art assets, but still, good use of them to create a nice forest environment (I think you got your parallax layers backwards tho!) and the music suits the pixel art well. Level design is really good, so I would love to play a post-jam version with more levels and maybe new mechanics and buttons! R for reset was great to have. Really good work on this!

Really cool idea! I like how you build upon the idea of losing the keys by adding the power ups to regain keys. The music and sound effects are very nice for the pixel jungle setting!

Spotted this one on Mark’s stream. A very solid prototype; one of my favourite ones that I’ve seen this jam. A little polish and this would be ready for release

Nice game! I liked the idea a lot, its a mix of puzzle and platformer, really good! I just had a little problems  in moments that I lost because I was fearing pass over the chest and then I ended up in its side, maybe putting some wall in its side to let me collide on it, or making the chest some kind of door that I can pass over it to complete de level. Overall really great game with a lot of potential! Congratulations!

It'd be really cool if you recovered your jump in midair so you could pull off a double jump, instead of having to wait till you land

What a gorgeus idea!
I played to the end of it and it was worth it. The idea of controls as something you can only use once combined with a great execution in harmony with the music, graphics and gameplay. Particularly the controls and the level design was quiet in depth. To see that someone had the same idea as me is funny.

One of the best games on this jam!!!

Nice! Love your take on theme! Even if I am insanely bad at the game XD

Great game! This is the first game I've played so far to earn a perfect score.

Many of the games in this Jam that I've seen played, or played myself, put so much focus on the "out of control" aspect, that there isn't really much game to play - you just play to see the loss of control and that's it. This game, on the other hand, doesn't lose focus on being a playable game. Yes, the player loses control, but that loss equates to a solid puzzler, rather than some gimmicky effect. It could easily go to market, requiring only the addition of more levels.

Even more to the point, because the puzzles are clear, and due to the perfect platforming controls, the puzzles don't make the player feel like, "well crap, how do I proceed?" You know how what you have to do, you just have to figure out the timing and how to combine the controls.

Side note: as a testament to how on-point the controls are for the demands of this game, I stopped just before the treasure box way too many times - even in the very last "puzzle" - because I'm so used to platforming characters with inertia, and I was subconsciously worried about overshooting the box.

Edit: I forgot to mention how much I loved the cute graphics and character model!

Cool puzzle platformer. I love this

Really cool platformer puzzler, I had a great time playing it. I love your take on the theme

Good work! I loved the platforming gameplay and the nice 2D art style. Well done! :D

Art and music are great. I agree with all the others. Some kind of small reward pickups like bonus points in the levels if you manage to time your movements very well would be fun.

Really great take on the theme! Awesome job, well done! If i were to suggest anything is that there were a slight delay on losing the key after releasing - I had too many levels with me ending with in front of the chest xD :P

Wow, this is cool!  I have to think about my movement so much more. It's unbelievably satisfying to get a level on the first go. The level design is great!

The game has this sense of urgency that feels amazing. Of the games I've played so far, this is probably in my top 10. Thanks for playing my game and suggesting your own <3

Oh! Also, love the parallax background! And the music slaps, really catchy loop.

Hm, some observations from my gameplay: when the platforms moves and you're trying to fall on top of it, it doesn't count the detection and it seems as if my character just falls through the platform. Also, sometimes the keys don't recharge when I restart the level, not sure what causes this problem. Apart from that, it's a really tricky and challenging yet satisfying puzzle game, I liked it a lot!

Nice idea and play on the theme :)  Would have liked if the levels were a bit more flexible though, it felt like there was only one correct way to beat the level.

Pretty cool game. I think there were a few platformer physics/control things you could have used in this game that would have added a lot of strategy and depth:

* Holding both directions should stop you from moving instead of having priority to the left

* Holding the jump button should let you keep jumping until you release it
