How does your game fit the theme?
To go to the next puzzle, you scale up, keeping the color that is in majority in the last puzzle (the player in the next puzzle IS the previous puzzle, but only the color is visible). You can also scale down to change stuff.

Damn. I love how you turned a simple mechanic into a complex puzzle game. The idea is really clever, and it is definitely one of the more unique games I have played so far. It also feels really satisfying to play.
Great entry and an awesome job!
The idea of connecting the previous level and the current level is a smart touch. I also like the cute sfx choices here.
Pretty cool game, nice puzzles.
This one really had me thinking so hard and regretting some decisions hahaha you never know what's next and that makes it really fun ! Good job for creating such a fun game :)
You really have to think in parallel dimensions 🤯
Super cool game!
Incredibly clever, and loved the ending :)
Amazing and creative!
Cool theme! Really enjoyed the puzzles and sound effects
Such a good and creative idea. A puzzle game were you can go back and forth is not an easy thing to do, congrats!
Its super satisfying to walk around coloring the squares, and the mechanic is so creative!
super tight sound effects and really clean mechanics! the level design was great as well! for the first few levels, i was thinking, "how will this game become interesting?" and i was pleasantly surprised!
Great game with an amazing concept! Great use of the theme!
Really cool idea! The pap, pap, pap of movement made it really satisfying and I loved zipping back and forth to change my prior creations. Nice
Interesting concept with going back and forth between scales, and the actual scaling animation/sound was fun. I will say because of the specific mechanic of changing my color (majority colors) it does become a bit tedious to go back to a prior level; but I could see some very interesting puzzles if it was a bit simpler, like the "last" color you were or something. Nicely done!
Very cool concept, congrats! I really like the idea of going back and forth between puzzles :)
Great concept for puzzle. I love how the puzzles just naturally gets more difficult because the number of levels you can backtrack grows. It's such a simple and elegant design that is easy to understand but provides a great depth. This is, in my opinion, the true goal of all puzzle rules. Great job.
I am loving it! The concept is so intriguing. Got my mind to work, which is a good thing. Also good juice with the tiles moving and the sound effects. Only issue is that when you figure out how to solve puzzles (know which color you need, go down to that color and work your way up) it is a bit tedious. But that's just part of the gameplay. Well done!
Cool and challenging
Pretty neat and challenging concept for a puzzle game! Good work
Wow, very interesting game. Pretty hard too hahah
