Wonderful game! Loved the direction fields, very reminiscent of Chip's Challenge. I do feel like the target times were maybe a bit ambitious for all but the last 2 levels though. Also the camera zooming in so tight on the orb/player when they weren't together seemed maybe a little too intense. Would love to see what else you come up with if you were to continue development.
Very cool game. Lots of different mechanics, which was great. I loved the art style and the music. Managed to get all the coins in all the puzzles, but some of those time limits were tough. Hit a few of them though.
Great job!
the two controls idea is super cool!
Oh whoops I commented on the game page instead of here. But, yeah, make more! I will agree with Carras it's a little hard to play as one player, but if it were truly multiplayer it would be a lot of fun I think!
An excellent couch co-op game. I recommend to play with 2 people too because when I try to play alone I feel like I am playing a piano... hand coordination went brrrrrrrrrr
Nice atmosphere. One I (kind of) got used to the controls I had a lots of fun. Finished all levels but only 5 and 6 on 100%. Good work!
Well done, very nice game. Reminded me "fireboy and watergirl".
lol that was my inspiration, thanks
A nice, chill puzzle game. I liked how it felt like you were walking through an ancient Egyptian ruin. I did find the controls a bit hard to work with - it might have been easier to have the arrow keys be given to whichever player had the focus rather than them both having independent controls. I also felt a bit too zoomed in on level 2 where the orb goes through the maze. But all in all, a really nice submission.
Great submission! Can tell a lot of thought has gone into the puzzle/levels, I enjoyed my first play through. Good idea having the additional goals, it'll hopefully encourage multiple plays. Took me to level 5 to realise I could jump on the orb! That should make some of the earlier level's coins possible. :)
The only troubles I had were with controls, and some of the colours (I'm a mildly red/green colour blind). Using both WASD and arrows gave my brain a good work out -- perhaps this is intended -- but for the most part I was only ever controlling one character at a time. I would appreciate an option to allow switching who I control.
Other than that, some QoL thinks like "R" to restart, and enter/space to get through the end of level screen would be appreciated. :) Overall I really enjoyed playing this one. Music is super chill and very appropriate!
Solid fun, I really liked how smooth it was controlling the orb and player at the same time, thank you for the entry
Thats really nice thank you
