A very cute take on the concept ^_^ The puzzles were fun and the music and graphics fitted very well the game. I enjoyed playing it a lot.
Really well designed puzzles, can't wait to see it expanded. Super cute game, great work!
Thanks for playing!
That was great.
You came up with interesting puzzles that weren't instantly obvious. I think there's a lot of potential here for even more levels!
The art style is just absolutely adorable. The whole setting and mood together with the jump SFX and the music is great.
Congrats on making an awesome game!
Thanks for playing!
Would love if you could have a look at my game too :)
I will try! It just depends on how much time I have
cute little game, i think you could definitely expand on it if you wanted to! i liked the music and theme (although i'm curious what exactly the father is holding?)
Thanks for playing and rating! the father is holding a book because why not lol
it kinda looks like a cigar though Edit: maybe I should've added glasses to him to make it more obvious
my first guess was his open wallet LOL
The art is so charming and the gameplay is a breath of fresh air. Great level design as well :) I'll be back for when you release the full game!
Thanks for playing!! Glad to see you excited!
Hi! Co-Creater of the game here.
Just wanted to say thanks for all the positive feedback! I also had some comments on the game.
1. Me and MrMuff are considering adding more levels and making this game into a full game, we shall see.
2. I plan to upload the game’s ost to youtube and possibly soundcloud, I’ll link it when I eventually do that.
Anyways, thanks for playing/rating the game!
Sorry I took so long, but I finally managed to get it onto Soundcloud!
I'll probably get it onto Youtube eventually if I ever figure out how to make music videos.
Anyways, here's the link.

I've seen lots of games that interpret the theme as controlling two characters at the same time, but none of them is as clever as this one. While the player can control two characters at the same time, each of these two characters' ability is limited, and thus it requires the two characters to help each other to pass the level, which makes this game more fun and creates more possibilities. The levels are all well designed. Well Done! By the way, the artwork in this game is so cute. I love this art style :)
I'm so glad you liked it! me and my teammate tried pretty hard to be original
so I'm glad we accomplished that
Thanks for playing!
That was great! Kinda similar to my team's submission too haha!
But yeah, short and sweet with some really interesting puzzles!
Nice!
Hey thanks for playing! Yeah your game is very similar
great minds think alike!
I love when families push each other around!
Me too lol! thanks for playing
No Problem! I had a lot of fun!
:D
Super cute. Loved the idea and execution of the mechanic. Great work!
Thanks!
My heart, this game is adorable! The art is excellent, the gameplay is really fun and the design is incredibly clever. Excellent work! The music and sound are pretty fantastic too!
I'm so happy you liked it!! thanks for playing and rating
Really excellent game all around. The sounds were great, the music was great, the art was adorable, the puzzles were fun, ~ Do check mine and give your valueable feedback:D
Thanks for playing! The music was by my teammate megasupy
And yes I plan to rate people who rate me
This was quite fun to traverse through. I really enjoy having such limited actions with the two characters because it made it feel they truly needed each other; versus mirroring or copying each other. I do think the difficult curve could maybe increase just a tad faster, but otherwise enjoyed playing it!
Thanks for the feedback! it really does help
This was a pleasant little puzzle game that didn't overstay its welcome with way more levels than was needed. The puzzles were all really interesting due to the limitations of the character movement, and the art style is really light and happy :)
Your levels are also nice and short, which is very nice when having to restart a few times lol
It would be cool to see what else you could've done with that side spring, but I think it's good that you left me kinda wanting more, ya know? You made a cool puzzler and that's pretty nifty!
Thanks for all your feedback! I'm glad the short levels worked for you
me and my teammate have been thinking about making more levels so we'll have to keep the side spring in mind when making them
Thanks for playing!
This was a really nice game! I think you introduced all of the mechanics super well and maybe could have even fit some more challenging levels in between each of the new mechanics, to really test the player's problem-solving abilities! I think this would have really made the pace much more interesting. The game overall was super charming though, great work!
Thanks for the feedback and I totally agree there could have been more levels to test the player
Thanks for playing!
I was really glad to see you joined the jam and your entry was fantastic. This was the type of game I was hoping to see in the submissions. The platform puzzle game genre is always fun to me and the cute and cohesive art style really flowed with the game play. The puzzles weren't too simple or too hard which striking a balance is impressive. The only real complaint I had was the game was too short. Which is a good complaint to have since it shows I wanted to play more of it! The music in the game was beautifully done as well.
For the first impressions look at this game, they can be found here:
Thanks for the feedback! glad you liked it
It's awesome to hear that the game was well balanced
Really cute game! I loved the art style and the music, perfect game for a gamejam!
Thanks for playing!
What a clever idea, really enjoyed the mechanic and puzzles you put in this game. I only came across one issue, if the red character lands right on the end of the moving platform, it cant jump and I had to restart that particular level. I also really enjoyed the art and music, great work!
Thanks for playing and giving your feedback
sorry about the issue you ran into I'll try and fix it after the jam ends
I did it!
Really excellent game all around. The sounds were great, the music was great, the art was adorable, the puzzles were fun, really everything about this game created a super pleasant aesthetic, and it was just a super enjoyable experience.
Great work!
Thank you for all your kind words all of this really means a lot to me
And I agree the music is great my teammate megasupy made it
This one is great. We had a similar idea, with multiple controllable characters, one of whom can't jump, and needs the help of the one that can to get places. The puzzles and levels are all fun, I just wish there were more, I'd love to see more of this gameplay. I really liked the music(and minor point, unlike a lot of games I've seen this jam, it doesn't default to being insanely loud, which is a plus) and the art is on point. I especially like the little cigar that the papa slime has. All in all a really good entry.
Thanks for the kind words! yeah me and my teammate have been wanting to make more as well
