I think you have a really cool mechanic here. The puzzles are challenging and fun.

I had a few troubles with the controls, not understanding why slimes don't move. I think it was a bug as it worked after I reseted. Not sure.

The art style is simple and not in the way, I like it.

Congrats on submitting a game!

I'm happy you liked the controls and puzzles. The controls could absolutly be buggy when i didn't not have time for much playtesting. They are also a bit confusing and it can depend on that. Thanks for your great comment :)

Really good idea. The music loop got kind of annoying at times, and the control scheme isn't that intuitive, but it's understandable with the time limit. I really love puzzle games, and i liked this one. Tons of potential for further improvement. It really makes you think about how you move.

Developer

Thank you. With more time the loop maybe could have been a bit longer as everyone thought the controls are a bit fiddely.

Unfortunately, the game crashes for me every time I start it :(. 64bit Windows

That's weird but what can you do. Thanks for trying and great game yourself :)

Such an original idea! Multiple connections between different characters, screens and event changing colors, wow! Nicely done :-)

Developer

Thank you very much. Im glad you liked the concept :)

Nice game !! THe controls were the only thing I think could have more work on, but is nice tho.


Id appreciate if you played my game too :)

Developer

Thank you, will definetly play yours!

Submitted

i like the idea, but the controls felt confusing for me, like what someone else said here. still, it's a pretty interesting game :)

Developer

Yeah as many though, the idea is good and im happy with it but the controls and telegraphing could definetly been improved.

Submitted

Clever idea! Hard to wrap your brain around at first, but really nicely made!

Developer

Nice that you liked the idea. Im very happy with it.

Developer

And great game yourself!

Submitted

Ooooo nice game, loved the idea, great take on the theme, could use a little bit polishing but overall awesome work

Developer

I glad you liked it but i agree that there is much polishing possible.

This is the best idea of all the games I've tried. It's really hard but really cool. However, it would be nice to greatly communicate to player what color and side they are controlling. Maybe changing the whole background color to make the player easily recognize it, and maybe shading the unused portion of the screen that is not being used.

I could see myself getting lost in the game for a few hours if it was a bit more polished.

Developer

WOW! Glad you liked it. Im very happy with the concept but i realized that wich sida and color you controlled could been improved.  I thought about something like darken the side that you don't control and the idea with changing the background was great!

Submitted

Wanted to come and leave a comment on your own game,   great concept for a  puzzler, could see myself getting lost in a touch version of the game, which I feel might benefit greatly from that change in controls if you ever develop it further. The assets and such do exactly what they need to , and the game itself stands up well in its mechanics, excellent stuff

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playinh it. If i feel for it i will definetly ty it with touch controls :)

Submitted

An interesting little game! I liked how the puzzle solutions seem open-ended. The music and cute art were nice too!

Developer

It's intressting that you feet that it was open ending. Thanks for playing.

Submitted

Having to switch control and swap colors was confusing to keep track of. I liked the puzzle aspect of the game where you have to make use of limited movement but I felt like I was struggling to select the color/side  to move moreso than trying to solve the puzzle itself.

Developer(+1)

I understand. The switching could have been better comunicated. Maybe with some animation.
