cute style

game did feel a bit laggy and you can get soft locked with the boxes... should probably have checkpoints and respawn option

Really cute art style! Good work!

It's so cute! I love that the blob's face changes depending on its size =D

The concept of "platforming while scaling up/down" has been done a lot, unfortunately. However, your game still has its own identity, so great job, it was fun to play! ^^

I liked the artstyle a lot! The game has potential, and I would like to play a bit longer :)
The camera movement was a bit too responsive, a even felt a bit nausious because of sudden vertical movements, maybe you could smooth it out on Y-axis. The boxes on the last level didn't move as well as in the tutorial, had to push it for quite some time. Also a small slime can jump in the end of the dash - not sure if it's intended. Dash is also unusually long :) In general GJ, fun game!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!! I will work on improving the game and adding more levels in the future :)

Pretty fun platformer and nice artstyle. Would be nice to have a restart button because I seems to get softlocked in some of the levels

Cool concept, although the level design seemed a bit too geared to using one type of slime. Also a shame it was quite short but solid foundations for a fun game!

Nice game, I loved the art and the music was nice. As others already pointed out, I also found the dash mechanic a little bit akward to use, maybe because of the fact that you kinda just slow down over time, maybe if you make it so that the slime goes really fast and then immediately stops it would be less weird, but that's just a hypothesis. Either way, good game!

A little short, but it have good vibes

Great! It's the second game of that kind I play during this jam but this one is a bit more polished. The aesthetic is nice and the levels are simple but effective. Good job!

Nice and satisfying platformer. The art was very good.

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! But the moving was a bit bugged, so certain parts you could screw up and have the level impossible to finnish.

Developer

Thanks! I would love to hear where you got stuck so I can fix it in a future update :)

It was in the tutorial, in the Scale Up (Key E) introdution. I somehow got one of the blocks to shoot up and it stayed on the edge.

awesome game and nice use of the theme to create interesting puzzles. I thought the camera movement was a little fast and i got stuck on a level where it wouldnt let me push the crates. Other than that i loved the game!

Man I just wish this was longer
the dash is quite awkward to use though

small slime 🥺

I like the art style and the music!

I do like the mechanic of changing sizes for different powers + routes, sorta gave me Thomas Was Alone vibes.

I wish the physics was a bit more fleshed out (why are those boxes so dang heavy haha).

Including an in-game tutorial is also awesome for a game jam game! quite rare haha.

Overall great job!

I like the shift to glide ability on the little slime

Cute art style!

Really like the style. Character and sound seem to fit so well and adds to fun of the game.

I really liked this. Lovely interpretation of the theme. And was really smooth to play. That jump animation + sfx combo was so satisfying. 

Submitted(+1)

Really nice art style it is really amazing and the tutorial really teaches you how to play. The game is a really good scope and fits the theme well. Amazing work!
