Great take on the theme. Had a lot of fun making it through all the levels. Nice touch with the scaling main menu title. Great job.

Developer

Thanks a lot! Glad you loved the game and the main menu haha!

Fun interpretation of the theme. There were quite a few bugs with physics that made the earlier levels challenging, but they actually made the last two levels possible :) Unintended gameplay still counts as gameplay!

Developer

Yes! I'm aware of these issues. The problem was that I found out about these once the jam was already over, and it didn't seem fair to upload a fixed version of the game after the deadline. Thanks a lot for testing the game! I might fix these issues once the jam results are out!

This 100% needs more attention. Definitely a job well done with implementing the theme in a creative way, and it's  challenging but not too challenging. Overall very fun and clean gameplay!

Developer

That's very flattering haha! Thanks a lot!

An interesting premise, but unfortunately, since the scaling has little restrictions, the puzzles are extremely easy. The art style is great, and I love the sound he makes when he jumps. All in all, it's still a fun little puzzle game to play.

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing! Yeah, I would have loved to make more challenging and interesting puzzles, but I didn't get enough time to work on designing the puzzles as the mechanic itself took most of the dev time. Glad you liked the game!
