What an interesting way of fitting the theme!  The art looks nice and the gameplay is simple and straightforward :> The rolling man is so much fun! good job! :DD

Very nice! I like the simplicity and just a few objects to use for the puzzles. 

Very well done! I'm gonna go eat an apple now...

Could play as the roller guy all day. Great idea to fit the theme. Really cool puzzles which made me think. Loved it!

The animations are great hahaha and the mechanics fit the theme very well! Some jumps are a bit difficult, but I like it.

The large man rolling made me actually laugh out loud 😂 Feels more like a precision platformer than a puzzle game at times - that last level was easy to figure out what to do, but hard to actually pull it off. But charming and well-done. Nice work!

Interesting idea, even better level design! I loved it, although I couldn't understand the invisible block near the exit in one of the levels. Great work! Rate my game as well!

Sounds like a bug we encountered with the breakable block which causes the player to pass through it if they aren't big. Sadly we ran out of time trying to squash that one before submissions closed.

Wow another awesome entry. This one is hilarious, reminds us of Karoshi :D. The soundtrack it brings so much nostalgic vibes. Saving it for later.

Neat mechanic and some really nice platforming levels that leverage it. If you refine the input and art a little more, this is a pretty shippable concept. Well done! 
Do checkout our game too.
