I like the art style, good work! I managed to get to the second island by enlarging both islands, not sure if that's the intended way!
Any method is valid if it gets you to the exit door!
Cool game! I loved the visual effects of the scaling gun, but the sound effect could have been better. There was an annoying clicking sound that was a bit distracting.
Sorry about that, we couldn't figure out how to fix it in time.
Objective was unclear, what was I supposed to do? Nice work on showing the controllers, wish you did the same for the objective though! ;)
The pixelated style made my brain hurt, maybe there's some way of tuning this down?
There's lots of signs on the first level which show you what to do!
I will be as constructive as possible.
1. The signs are not readable due to them being too pixelated.
2. The signs tell what to do, not how to do it. You need both of them.
For the jam though I would create a simple UI with the objective clearly, if you absolutely want it in-world, then make it more readable and have better explanations. Basically make it fool-proof. There's a really great game here called recursive rescale (highly recommend you to try that one out if you haven't already) -where they very clearly show what to do, and how to do it.
Nice puzzles, loved the pixelated look, especially the gun!
I cannot emphasize how great the concept of this game is. I love the scale based puzzles. But my eyes can only take so much of these pixelated graphics 😅
I highly recommend everyone to play this, it's awesome!
I like the style but the puzzle was a bit tricky to understand at first. Good job overall though!
A bit too pixelated for me, it was a bit jarring, but I still emjoyed playing it! It's a fun take on this mechanic, congratulation for making this!
love the style! and the fact that almost everything can be scaled gives us a lot of opportunities to break stuff! thanks! :D good job!
Intriguing game with a great aesthetic! I also really liked the main scaling mechanic!
this is interesting, almost everything can be enlarged)
Great game! loved the style of it too with the pixely post processing stuff, mechanics were interesting!
The game allows for plenty of ways to solve levels (whether intended or not, it's fun!)
Yall knocked it out of the park with this. Great idea and good job implementing so many levels.
Amazed you were able to fit this all in 4 days! Really impressed with the amount of freedom you have to grow and shrink objects.
