Feels like there's some sort of social commentary in how the accountant can literally blend in to the background :p

Loveeeee the cute pixel-art style :Dd Really well done!

Developer

Thank you!

I ran into a visual bug that made the player sprite disappear. Not sure how it triggers, but it was in the level the mimic mechanic was introduced. I like the pixel art though, and it was an enjoyable platformer.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, another one to add to the list 😱

Unfortunately I couldn't mimic (Opera GX Browser), but nice work nonetheless.

Developer(+1)

There currently is a bug that doesn't allow you to mimic if you stand directly on the object (I think the player's interact raycast gets stuck in the item trigger), but thanks for giving it a try!

Cool game with an interesting take on the theme

Developer

Thanks!

This puts a fun twist on the platformer genre!

I found a soft lock when you are supposed to mimic for the first time if you... dont

Developer

Thank you so much for playing my game! So sorry that you ran into a softlock, was it when you fall down into the hole after the first mimic object?

Submitted(+1)

Yup! I couldn't mimic so i figured I would go in the hole just in case, softlock!

Developer

Gotcha, I'll add that to the to-do list for the game once the jam ends, thank you!

This game feels quite polished, and I had no problems completing it: well done! I think the inversion of the roles isn't as strong here as in other titles I played from this gem, and the fact that heroes don't respawn when you die makes some puzzle auto-solve even if you do the wrong thing.

Good luck! :)

Developer(+1)

Yeah I noticed that after completing it, I wanted to have the heroes have more of a dominant role but lacked the technical prowess to make it happen. Glad you were able to complete it and thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Really enjoyed it, however I wasn't able to get the mimic effect to work. Fun to play though!

Developer

Yeah they can sometimes be a little buggy, wished I set more time aside to iron out those issues. But thanks for playing it though!

Submitted(+1)

That's such a fun concept! I love the shrinking and mimicing mechanics. For Your first jam this is really impressive, well done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!

Submitted(+1)

Simple and interesting game :) The mimic mechanic is intriguing, and the crawling animation is funny! I ran into a tiny amount of bugs, but overall it was solidly put together!

Developer

Hey! Thanks for taking your time to play my game! This was my first ever jam and I wanted to do something small but I still almost ran out of time lol.

Submitted

I know the feeling haha. There's always something more you'd like to get done.
