Amazing art and concept, but the controls were frustrating at times (couldn't get past the second level). But great overall!

Brilliant game full of life. The crayon styling on everything is such an amazing artistic choice and gives the game a unique identity. The core mechanic is also super fun and you used it super well throughout the levels. My only gameplay complaint is that the downtime delay on jumps after landing felt a bit awkward, but it was by no means a dealbreaker. The music was also lovely and perfectly fit the rest of the game art and gameplay-wise!

very cool coordination based gameplay!

amazing 2.5D style! the hand drawn level selection menu looks fantastic and the latching mechanic is really unique! really great puzzle design too!

There's so much creativity here, I wish I could see more of the game. I just cannot control the character to save my life. I feel like there should be much less downtime on jumping, that might help pick up the pace when your partner flies off to Peru. Great art, very fun music and sound design (the implementation can be a bit crazy sometimes like with that mushroom that plays a tom lol), I wish I had the experience of other commenters here where the controls clicked but I couldn't figure em.

Very cute music and art style! Also the puzzles are really well done. The latching mechanic is really clever

I wish the character was a little easier to control, specially when double jumping

I mean, why is this one not given enough attention?

amazing idea. amazing art. It's not AHA moment. It's OMG moment.

controlling not so well polished but all the other so goood! Amazing guidance. Amazing creativity. Best art ( in my view at least ) that's totally a 5/5 for me.

Very cute game I believe the turn when it freeze frames should have a little more control but other than that I had a wonderful time!

This game is the best game ever.

Oh wow! The art here is awesome, and the parallax effect for everything works really well, the art is really creative, I have never seen a video game with this sort of crayon drawn artstyle before. The gameplay is also really fun and there are a ton of features for a game made in a pretty short time period. Amazing job!

I loved this! At first I thought it was a really fun and satisfying mechanic just throwing myself & my red friend around, but the later levels added so much more than I was expecting to see from a jam game!! The art & music are also lovely and compliment the whole experience really well

Absolutely immaculate aesthetics from the art to the music! So cohesive even with the gameplay. I got to the second level and accidentally locked myself by launching my partner Flutter and could not restart as the restart button was not working for me. Maybe in a game jam context it'd be nice to have all levels accessible.

Great stuff really! Will come back to try again.

Nice to see you enjoyed it! the restart icon is not clickable,  it just tells the player they can press "R", it's bad design though, so that's understandable

This game is adorable❤️ The Flutters are so cute and love how everything has been designed in this game, from the level selection screen to the levels themselves! The music is amazing and I love the little song that plays when you make it to the door!

amazing Art style (and the integration in 2.5D is awesome !)

Game play is fun, hard to master tho (Maybe a bit more of air control when in slow mo could help ?)

And wow, how many levels in such a short period of time ? didn't have the time to test them all ...

realy great entry !

Oh my gosh I adore the art style! Also nice work on the sound design. I really like the concept. Unfortunately, the controls felt a little sluggish and I had to give up in level two because I got too frustrated. I think I would prefer an actual aiming system using your mouse (or secondary joystick on a controller) instead of turning your character mid-air which just seems inconsistent and frustrating. Level design was pretty good from what I've seen and I quite enjoyed the extra challenge flowers. I think with a little more work on the controls, this could turn into a really cool puzzle platformer, I'd love to see this developed further!

Now that editing is back up, we actually fixed a lot of the control related complaints we got and added mouse aiming for double jumping.  Thank you for the feedback, and even though the jam is over, we'd love to see you try the game out again and let us know how it feels. Thanks for playing!
