Wow! really nice art! the gameplay is cool too. Overall, a really nice game :)
i like the different charicters and its a really cool concept
Really original idea! I like how we can able to switch between characters and they have different abilities.
Ohh this was super cute! I love the little details like the sounds of each character and the eye of the octopus looking at the direction you're going, great way of reducing animations but mantaining a nice feeling.
It was super hard tho! And if you don't have a numeral pad you can't press "shift+0" to use the = to switch levels hahaha
This was definitely cute and well-put-together. I couldn't get past the execution challenge in level 2, however. This is partly because I'm bad at platforming, for sure. What I think gave me trouble about it particularly was the need to swap quickly between things a few times in a row and execute them with correct, non-panicked timing. I got reset too many times and concluded I wouldn't be able to do it XD Sorry about that. The mechanics were certainly looking interesting. And the characters were adorable, 'specially the little details like the tentacles grabbing around the other critter when picking him up.
Thanks for the experience! ^_^
level 2 is very tough (tougher than we expected) so hopefully you were able to press = and experience the easier later levels! Thanks for your feedback!
Ahh, I forgot about that even though it was up there in the corner the whole time. I should try that :D I'm so used to being blocked from later levels until I've done the preceding once. ^_^ Thanks!
Ah there we go. Everything else was so chill compared to that XD haha. Thanks again, was able to complete the other levels.
Nice! hope you enjoyed your experience! glad you got to give the rest of the game a shot! :D
Honestly that's a very nice feature that has been in a bunch of jam games... but then not in some others XD I feel like for a jam game it's a really good catchall since you'll have all sorts of players with all sorts of time and ability constraints of their own, so thank you for including that feature in the first place ^_^ Cheers!
Very cool art. it looks great! The gameplay is unique and it fits the theme very well. The puzzles are not to hard and fun to solve. Great game!
