Incredible job! Love the color palette and the little characters. The swapping mechanic was really interesting and well utilized. I encountered a few bugs with the moving platforms but otherwise amazing game!
Thank you!
We're working on the platforms for the post jam version.
where can i but the full version?

This might be my favorite game in this jam! I love the concept of not only changing roles with something, but giving roles to objects by swapping them around. Super fun, creative, polished, love it!
Wow, I loved this, the polish was top-tier. Watching those platforms acting like frogs was hilarious.
Thank you!
I loved the pixel art and animations
I like this idea!
You know, when I was thinking about different ways to interpret "reversing roles", having characters swap roles midgame did come to mind. I'm glad to see someone explore this idea with such success. The game was both mechanically and visually easy to understand and enjoyable. The music felt repetitive after awhile, but was also really good. I particularly enjoyed how the game made use of swapping back and forth for verticality. I felt clever doing things like giving the platforms hops so they would be underneath me when I swapped to what I needed. The way the game pauses when swapping gives me the same feeling of doing something cool when I use bullet time in Tears of the Kingdom.
My hand did cramp a bit while playing it. Probably because I was trying to do everything with just the one hand (WASD, X, and Z are all keys I'd use my left hand for). But once I was using my right hand for swapping and abilities via J and Spacebar, I was a lot more comfortable and had an easier time controlling my character. In hindsight, I imagine that might have been the intended control scheme from the get go. Oops.
This is a well-rounded entry that knows what it wanted to do and executes on it. Congrats to the team for what they've managed to accomplish here.
Yeah, the game is definitely easier played with WASD+J or Arrows+X -- we forgot to make that clear in-game, but we did put it in the description
Thank you so much for the compliments!
This is amazing, would love to play more of this!
Great game here. Amazing presentation and great mechanics
Could definitely have done without some of the random spikes in difficulty in certain levels though lol.
I think my biggest problem was when the platform gets the frog's jump ability. It really needed some sort of indicator for it's trajectory.
Though on the flip side it resulted in a moment where the platform basically lifted me up by jumping all over the place lol.
This game definitely has some very well designed puzzles though, that's for sure. The amount of player expression here for a jam game is kinda amazing ngl. Really great entry and congrats to your team
yoo pig
thanks for the compliments!!
Thank you! We're working on the difficulty for the post jam version.
The controls are a bit mind-bending for me, but getting past that it's a very cool idea that works really well. Great polish, level design, and audio!
What a game!
The art is really good, the puzzles too, it has good sfx, good music, it's just perfect, i have nothing to say.
Enjoyment 5, Creativity 5, Presentation 5.
The look, feel and the soundtrack is incredible. It is an extremely well executed game. I rarely rate a game 5 stars in all categories, but this one is one of them. By the way: I made a very similar game, I also went with the attribute swap. But instead of a swap button, the switch happens when you get killed by an enemy.
This game is amazing! Deserves to be one of the winners for sure! Though, it does feel a bit too tight for a puzzle game. In some levels, I was unsure if I was just not getting the puzzle, or my execution was at fault, and that made the game feel a bit less fun.
Thank you! We're working on the difficulty for the post jam version.
The game has so much content, no wonder its so highly rated. Amazing work, keep going.
This was the most amazing game I've seen so far, but there's something a little frustrating about some of the puzzles, I think that having some kind of indication for the frog jump and some other stuff, the music and art are amazing, pretty cool game, congrats!
Thank you! We're working on the difficulty for the post jam version.
God, this' great!
Very cute art and interesting mechanic! I'm going to coin it a kirby puzzler. Neat stuff!
Probably one of the best ones Ive played so far. Great art, design and music. Full package in 2 days!
Really amazing movement and controls for a game with such great puzzling aspects. Definitely recommend for anyone that likes platformers and puzzlers :)
