Really fun game! We had a similar concept except without the platforming. 

The art and music are really nice. I love how the player can jump between the windows and the platforming controls feel just right.

My only nitpick is with the level designs, sometimes scalable windows are missing the scale icon, and there's no indicator to how far I can scale.

From playing, I see that you guys faced a lot of the same challenges we faced. Knowing how difficult it is to get everything working, you guys did really well. Would love to see what you guys cook up from here :)

Great idea, charming execution! Loved it ^^

I like the level design to some of the puzzles here. It's really fun, would love to see this concept further developed. It's great take to the window-game genre! Had me really think how to achieve the last level. Although I encountered a bug with the player falling out of the map when resizing using the mouse.

Super cool idea and great execution.  I really like how you used the idea in a bunch of novel ways.  Thanks for making it!

Submitted

Really creative and fun! One of the best takes on the theme. It could do with some more polishing, but very impressive for just 96 hours dev time

Good concept and art!

Was a little wonky on my dual monitors - windows appeared in the middle of both monitors rather than on one of them.

The last puzzle was tough to figure out until I realised the scaling affected the gravity too.

Developer

Yeah the bug on dual monitors have been known to us and we will work on them after the jam. I'm glad you enjoyed it nonetheless!

Very good concept there are some bugs unfortunately but still it's impressive !

Developer

Thanks for playing! Would you mind sharing the bugs you'be encountered? It would help us improve it after the jam. We would very much appreciate it!

Many games have this same window mechanic, but yours has a different twist that makes this mechanic even more interesting with the two windows! Great idea and creative implementation. Could be endlessly expanded further into a full game honestly. The art is amazing and cute to look at. Great submission! :)

Developer

Thanks for playing the game! We hope you enjoyed! We will certainly explore possible expansions to the idea, we had a lot of plans that were scoped out because of time constraints unfortunately.

I think the name of my game should be yours!

This is simply CREATIVE. And it's so precious for a game so innovative to be so well polished lol.

I wish there were less bugs and the game can run on webpage. It would really make a huge success!

Developer

Thank you for playing the game! We would appreciate help in identifying these bugs if you can. We imagined it more impactful to represent the multiple window mechanic outside of the web but it would be fun to explore in the future maybe!

the controlling of character and windows can both be a little weird. I feel I did it in a same way but not every input works orz

love browser window games! really unique interpretation of the theme and the art + sound design was amazing!

Developer

Thank you for playing! We hope you enjoyed the game!

HA! Made it! Thanks for giving me a great challange. :)

Unique and great game.

This was fun!

Developer

Nice job! It’s great to hear you had a good time!

Game is a ton of fun and a lot deeper than it seems! Main mechanic is buggy but is a joy to play around with. I feel like you can do a lot more fun tricks if given more development time.

Developer

That's true, we had a ton of other plans that couldn't make it given the time constraint. Thank you for playing!

Really breaks your expectations and once you get the hang of it it's really impressive. The scaling windows aspect takes a few moments to grok but it scratches that same itch as Baba is You where you realize that you can break the constraints more than you realize

I'm glad you liked it! Thank you for playing!

Very interesting game about scaling the windows to affect the character. It is a bit janky at times but it is nice that pressing r fixes everything back.

Developer

I'm glad the restart function got around your problem. Thank you for playing!
