I love the artwork, and it was a really creative interpretation of the them as well. I love the mechanics! 

I can't seem to get any sound, though (?) :/

The artwork is drawn to differing resolutions. And I couldn't get past level 1. But a really nice take on the theme.

Deciding to tie two fundamental game verbs to objects which were equippable and unequippable is a nicely novel concept and I'm glad to see it put to good use here. Hit detection was a little fiddly in places; I had more than one time where either orbs weren't activating pedestals like they were supposed to, or I wasn't able to pick up orbs despite being right on top of them.


That aside though, this game was very well-executed! I especially liked how forgiving the walkable angle of the drawn platforms was --something that could have easily brought the experience down.

I also want to point out how smart an idea it was to make platforms only drawable from existing platforms. It would have been nice to have the freedom, but also extremely abusable. Much better to limit the scope like you did for a 48 hour jam.

It may be a little hard to get how the orbs and gates work at first, but once you learn to use your orbs, it can get really fun, I like the idea! Good job!

The game would have issues drawing sometimes, but awesome art! Great job amigo!

Really cool idea to have 2 orbs as a skill set. It, take me a while to understand the drawing one but when you get it it's really fun. It would be nice to add some sound FX thought. I love the pixel art, good job !
