Thx for all the comments and feedback!

This game has a really interesting mechanic that fits the theme really well. It can for sure be expanded out with some more levels and character types. I would only suggest highlighting the player you are in control of and perhaps make them look more distinctive (in addition to the color) so its more obvious which one hovers, which one jumps etc. Great work.

I liked the mechanics and the art and the music! The controls are very responsive. I suck at puzzles and I enjoyed it, great job!

Hey, that's a very cute art style you have in this one! The ability swap mechanism also feels pretty responsive and straight forward.

Great job! 😁

I thought this was excellent and quite challenging! Well done!

Very nice game, pretty challenging closer to the ending but I didn't felt like I couldn't beat it at all... Nice work!

Really cool puzzle mechanics that, in turn, created really cool puzzles. The last two puzzles had me scratching my head before I figured them out. Lots of great revelation moments.

My only (minor) complaint with the mechanics is that I never figured out how the game determines which block to swap to if you have two or more blocks in your radius. (This was a problem we had to figure out for our game, which has a similar mechanic.)

I had a fun time with this game. I just wish there were more puzzles. Great work!

cool idea the game gets really hard really quickly!

 i also like the art it's simple but looks really good!

and also my game isn't getting a lot of views, can you give me some feedback ?

could use some more polish but a very fun puzzle mechanic that I haven't seen much of before

Decently fun, but oftentimes confusing and could use more polish
