Love the lineart!
Thanks! All art is done by GGroys, and he greatly appreciates your comment!
Love the art style. The shadow mechanic is amazing, probably the most unique Ive seen. Great job! Would love to see more puzzles!
Thanks a lot for the comment and thanks for playing!
Very cool game! Really liked the childish art style and sound effects. It felt really good to play with those shadows until you find just the right size and solution. The fact that platform's stroke of two shadows that have joined was realistic and nice looking.It was really creative and enjoyable overall! I have some suggestions you might have thought of:
The game was so cool, complete and problem-less that I couldn't find any bigger issues. Thanks for creating this great game!
Thanks a lot for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed our game! Yes, I had a smart kombo of 9-slicing, layering and masking in mind to make combined shadows look like one outlined texture, but we ran out of time to do so. And for almost every piece of art, there was no time to update it, so first version had to go in. We prioritized playability and bug fixing and I'm glad we did, it feels like the best version we could possibly deliver within the deadline in the end. I'm noting all pieces of feedback to improve in the future though! I'm glad it turned out as enjoyable experience. Thanks for the review!
INCREDIBLY creative. Absolutely amazing concept, it only left me hungry for more! One of the most creative game in this jam, it deserves way more ratings and I hope you keep working on it!
Thank you for playing and thanks for your review! I'm glad you liked it!
