looove this game it felt super nice to move the character around and the puzzles are very well thought out

Developer

Thank you very much!

Submitted

I loved it! The art and music work very well and the control feels fluid and intuitive

Developer

Thank you very much!

Submitted

Great Game, concept is cool, you don't get bored even after a few minutes, fit well to the theme, the timer got me willing to be faster, art is beautiful, i would have love a few more particules with the art, still a banger.

Developer

Thank you very much for playing! Agreed on that! That's something we're gonna be looking for into post-jam! 

Submitted

I followed the evolution from beginning to end, and frankly, it's a well-thought-out idea.

Developer

Thank you very much! :D

Submitted

Great level design, great art style. Really fun to play

Submitted

I like how you start the action from the get-go. I didn't feel bored and haven't encountered any bugs or problems. Solid entry.

Submitted

Great puzzle platformer! While the levels are challenging, the levels are fair and very well-made. 

Developer

Thank you very much for the support!

Submitted

Easy to get a hang of, I got a little bit stuck on a particular part but still it was a very fun game to play! I love the artworks and the art style, and that there was a lot of variety in this game despite the time limit for this jam.

Submitted

After figuring out the contrls its very intuitive, feels nice knowing "if i jump then change it big the ice will break" or starting small for a running jump, well done!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Glad it ended up feeling intuitive! :D

Submitted

Wow, our team also did a similar scaling up/down mechanic, though in car form lol

That music theme really kept me moving and grooving while I solved the puzzles, which were also very well made!

Submitted

Very polished game and great variety of mechanics and uses for scale! I also appreciated the consistent pixel size on Alice when she's small.

Developer

Thank you very much! The consistent size was done in engine rather than through spriting LOL. Sadly, despite initial plans, I did not have enough time to make sprite for all sizes. Something to come for when we work on it after the jam though! :D

Submitted

haha well still worked! Tough to do all that in the short time. Good stuff!

Submitted

Great idea with switching sizes for different obstacles, and nice graphics!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much! 

Submitted

Fun and pleasant little game. I was surprised by the relatively long levels. And the pixel art is lovely!

Submitted

This deserves all the praise it is getting. a top notch puzzle platformer, the scaling mechanic is really well implemented. Amazing job

Submitted

really good art, simple mechanic and not too punishing very nice experience :D

Incredibly polished game! Navigating the level and solving puzzles was very satisfying and the movement felt great. Would love to see this idea taken further, great job!

Submitted

Very well done!

Developer

Thank you very much!!

Submitted

The level design for this must be so hard, great job!
I think the timer made me a panic a bit more than needed though, but I'm sure it would be a great speedrunning game!

Submitted

Brilliant idea to go with Alice for the theme, you made it work so well too! The pixel art is gorgeous, and you can tell a lot of care went into all of the size puzzles, that must have been really difficult to design, great work!
