controls are tricky at first, but once you're used to them (which didn't take long), it was actually super fun! the art style is adorable, and the concept is really nice. having to plan out my moves after trial and error reminded me a lot of when i played celeste. this is a great game :)

This is really cute, and a really cool interpretation of the theme! Controls made it a little difficult at times, but I guess it wouldn't be Hell if it was easy!
Absolutely love the art style and the mechanics! While it was a bit difficult to jump while navigating the controls, it was still a great game to play. Well done!
This is really amazing! I love the creativity and concept, though I find the controls very difficult. It had very good effects.
Really like the style and idea but jumping got me realy annoyed very quickly i cant get squishing and jumping, also in early stage full screan does not work for me, but i see love put into the game.
Really cute game! Surprisingly challenging and very satisfying to figure out. Nice job!!
I really like this game! the first impressions, the goal is simple and the controls are simple to understand, the control hud in the corner is a nice touch. Figuring out how the stretching works wasn't too hard either, the gameplay is pretty fun and the visuals are very appealing. The stretch and squish buttons were in a weird spot since I started on wasd but after switching to arrow keys, it was fine. I think the use of the left and right click would've felt nicer, but that's my preference. For level design, it seemed that the first room, where people need to learn the controls is a bit tough to get past, at least for me it was. I had to fall and come back up a bit. The art is very nice, some of the foreground and background colors clash and make areas seem inaccessible when they are, but overall very nice.
Overall, awesome game concept, applied in a fun manner, 8/10
Really cool game! The puzzles are well thought, the art style is really good too. I see a cat, I press like.
Really good execution for a very simple yet fun and addictive idea! Would personally change the squish and stretch controls, but other than that its a great game!!
