Very cute! The levels felt a bit open-ended and it was nice to feel like I came up with my own solution that may not be exactly how it was intended. I think large open levels where you have to devise some solution, similar to World of Goo could be really fun!
Neat game! This is nice clever twist on the concept of controlling two players. I like the stickiness of the oozes that get picked up -- the mechanic worked very well. Nice job!
I love platformer games! You have good idea and mechanics. Great work! You can look at our platformer too, if you want :)
Unfortunately, I had no one to play this together with ... but also worked surprisingly well playing it allow. And was also still quite enjoyable! Connecting the blocks and building stairs for you or the second character to use. At times it was a bit hard to attach the block precisely, because the characters are so small as well as bit too fast.
This game is definitely unique! The cute slimes caught my attention but the simple yet addicting levels kept me playing. Your submission is officially my favorite out of all submissions where you play as two separate characters.
The constructing-the-slimes part definitely worked quite well. The overall design of the game made it feel like having two characters wasn't tacked on, and the credits scene was very cute :D
Some constructing parts did feel like they required a bit too much precision, which was difficult with the fast acceleration of the slimes, e.g. with the slime being below the add-on, and having to make it hang-on to the next jump.
Overall, I reckon this is a very elegantly designed game. Good work!
The slimes are very cute! Is it intended to be 2 player? Since the slimes don't seem to interact, it was just a matter of playing the level twice. I found the acceleration a bit high, controlling jumps was a bit hard that way.
Oh yes was aiming for it to be 2 player, bringing people together on the keyboard for the theme. I think it ends up quite a bit easier with 2 people too, but want it to still be possible with one perso.
if you play a little bit further there is a bunch of interaction between the 2
Great idea and well done. Controls / character movement could be a bit more polished, but I know how game jams are...
Superb! Super original and good looking game! The game is super hard though!

Nice entry! Pretty polished, nice concept and cool art. I find the different sounds you used for the two slimes really gave them both personalities, so good job there. The song gets a tiny bit annoying when you hear it a lot. Great job!
This was a lot of fun! It's like the platformer version of our puzzle game :D
I liked the mechanics and controls, the platforming was good, and the game felt very polished for a 48 hour jam game. Well done!
I had a great time with this! The core mechanic worked really well! My main peeve was the sound design and soundtrack but I know you used pre-existing audio and that wasn't the focus, so wonderful job!
Could definately be made into a full game, just playing it I feel like it's a full release :)
I love the game mechanics ! This is a really interesting coop game, that could easily become a “full” game. I love the mouth animation while jumping ^^
Really cute :3
