Very original idea with the magnet. Agree with the previous comment that the third level has some difficult jumps

Hm, yeah, I guess we should have come up with a way to signpost or hint at the solution (since it's pretty non-obvious). Thanks for playing!

Fun concept, the idea of using the magnet mechanic to solve levels was interesting. Also love the art style!

But a room reset would've benefited the game.

This is a cute little game! The idea is very good, and the execution as well with regards for the 48 hour time period. There were some small problems however, such as the magnet polarity acting sometimes when I didn't want it to, and sometimes not acting at all (these were mostly in small bursts so it didn't really take away from the experience as a whole).

I didn't get further than level 3 unfortunately, that 3rd lava pit is hard to get past :'(
