Very cool game concept with nice graphics! I don't think I have played it right but it was really fun and that's all that counts for me!

Great job, nice submission to this game jam!

Congrats!

It’s really cute, and I feel so happy when I see the different animation

Cute game! I enjoyed the puzzles you've created, they were really tough.

The only issue I ran into was that occasionally I was able to clear a level without getting both blobs to the goal, but otherwise good job :)

Developer

Thanks for playing and leaving feedback!

Yes unfortunately you're not the first to report this. I have some debugging to do!

It's very well presented, and I think it would make a great relaxing-type game, but I was able to clear any level by simply spamming R and Space lol

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much!

Hehe yes I'm aware. As long as you had a good time, I'm happy :D

I played this game. I liked that it was forgiving. I thought you had to get them both to the goal (maybe for a harder mode), but no it was just one. As a person who can struggle with puzzle games for a while, this may be more of my kind of puzzle game. Maybe it would be good for more challenge, but knowing how I am, it may be best not to do that except for later levels increasingly. Maybe make it clearer as to why each flip has specific things sometimes and not other times as well as making the mechanic you can shoot over stuff perhaps clearer.  

Developer

Thanks for playing and for leaving feedback! 

It sounds like I have some debugging to do, because it is needed to get both through a gate. There seems to be an issue with the triggers in certain scenarios. Thanks for pointing it out. I hope it was still enjoyable!

Gorgeous game, insanely polished and well thought out. Plays super smoothly and intuitively, but it can be quite tricky keeping track of what needs to be done (but this is as intended!) Fantastic puzzles, wish it was longer :)

Very very well done!

This is awesome! You can publish this on Android and IOS, could be a cool puzzle game to play on phone! I had only some problems to realize why i cannot enter at the final door with a character

Submitted

This was a fantastic little game, nice use of the theme. The concept is really cool and it was well executed. Love the art and design of this game !! :)

Submitted(+1)

This is cool! The puzzles were nice and challenging. I did find it a bit difficult to tell what was going on with the swapping sometimes, so maybe making the animation slower might help. Also you may want to consider zooming out the camera when the characters are far away from each other so you can see what they are both doing. Good job overall!

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing and for the feedback! The dynamic camera is definitely on the ToDo list :)

Fun but very challenging puzzler. Made me use my brain in ways I didn't think of.

Developer

Haha, I'll take that as a good thing! Happy you liked it, thanks for playing!

Thank you very much! Happy you liked it!

This was fun, you made me stop and think for a second when I first saw the large block. It also looks great, very juicy. Nice job

Developer

Haha that's great! Thank you for playing, I'm happy you liked it!

This was incredibly polished for your first jam game, great job! I really like the concept, I'd like to see what other types of puzzles you can make with this setup. 

Developer

Thanks a lot, and thanks for playing! Really happy you liked it!

Submitted(+1)

well done on the looks! the puzzle design is also pretty well done and the mechanics are a bit confusing but once you get them, its pretty intuitive! i just think that the music doesnt really go well with the overall aesthetic of the game. all things considered, a great entry!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! I'm happy you liked it :)

The music would need more polish for sure. For the beginning of the game it's just a bit boring, but later when the puzzles get harder I thought it was more appropriate to have a more relaxing type of music. Maybe I can make the music change along with the difficulty.

Thanks for the input!

Fun game with amazing visuals. It's a little confusing sometimes and I feel like I just spam space and end up winning. The game is GREAT!

Developer

Thank you for playing! 

Yes, the learning curve is steep and doesn't really help guide you through the mechanics. It requires some effort. If I keep working on the game I will smooth it out. Thanks for the feedback, really appreciated!

Nice brain teaser!

Developer

Thank you! And thank you for playing!

The game has simple graphics but very cute ones. The idea and its mechanic is well executed and its very fun. The music also worked very good with the game and the sounds were also a green flag. The game is also smooth and polished. Good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing and the kind feedback!

Albeit simple in concept, this was a very fun playthrough indeed!


I quite adore the design choices, visually the game looks very pleasing, with bright colors and polished graphics, the art-style is very cute too, the clean looks really adds to the experience, and renders the game enjoyable even in usually monotone situations,

I really liked the game concept, it was very creative and well executed, the controls work well and the motions solid, I really enjoyed the puzzles ad had no problems in my play session ( maybe I am good at this xD ) so we can positively say the gameplay loop is very satisfying, and did not stale at all on my session, thus we can conclude this formula has a lot of potential, and obviously the game has a sense of polish and feedback that makes it feel great to play,
overall this is a very solid entry indeed, we can conclude that this is fun!
I see a lot of potential to expand this concept, and I would totally play this in a more streamlined,  expanded package, 9/10 great work especially for such a shot time-frame, truly excellent!

Developer(+1)

Oh wow, thank you so much for taking the time to play and write down such a lengthy review, I truly appreciate it! I'm very happy to hear you liked the game so much! I still have a couple ideas for extra game mechanics, so maybe I will decide to expand the game after all :)
