Game Description
A game about solving puzzles with two characters simultaneously.
How does your game tie into the theme?
Using "Light" and "Dark" colors only (exception red as accent) + light"AND"dark was an inspiration to control two characters at once in a light/dark world

Love the simple art style and audio design. A simple concept that would allow for a multitude of puzzles. Great job.
Super cool presentation and concept. I had a lot of fun but I never worked out level4!
Good job!
ooo yay I love these types of games! The character walking animation is so cute! The button click sound effect is so satisfying. I got a bit frustrated trying to do the precision platforming on level 7 and couldn’t get past it. I think slowing the jump or giving more hang time would be nice so I could focus on the puzzle solving bit of the game rather than trying to make very specific jumps. It took me a while to realize lower power jumps were an option as well.
Visually the game is very pleasing, and the sound effects are fitting. Overall great job!
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback!
Yeah, I know what you mean.. sometimes the jump of the character(s) is unforgivable and frustrating..
I will balance it in the future. Thanks again! :)
Cheers!
this is cool. we also made a game with this premise, but as a top-down puzzle instead of a platformer. great color choices
Thank you! I will check out yours. :)
Cheers!
Great Addition to the Jam! Especially with more Puzzles I would definitely wishlist this!

Wow! Thank you very much for the detailed feedback! Appreciate it!
Thanks!
Great game design and puzzles with a simple concept that just works very well
Thank you! Appreciate your feedback! :)
Cheers!
I think the way the difficulty ramps up in this is outstanding, each level took just a little bit more trial and error than the previous. The sound and art style are very nicely done and I found the platforming to be very satisfying. I hope to see some more puzzles and mechanics in the future!
Wow! Thank you so much for the detailed feedback and the kind words. It means a lot to me!
I plan to continue developing this prototype! Thanks!
Cheers!
The art is very stylish and the music fits the theme well. Some of the puzzles were really difficult, and that is a compliment! Very nice for a first jam.
Thank you for the feedback and the compliment haha.
In my opinion, I still need to balance the level design and, with that, the difficulty of the levels. Thank you!
Cheers!
It's a very impressive first game. The presentation is top notch and the puzzles are very challenging. Well done!
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback and I’m glad you liked the game. :)
Cheers!
Very mind boggling and difficult game. i loved the simple aesthetic of it, the music was nice and the game felt very polished. i couldnt complete it but the games awesome. i definetly see it being in the top 5
Wow, thank you!!!
I plan to add more levels and balance the difficulty through level design in the near future!
Cheers!
Simple, charming and effect presentation, design and execution. Very good in general. One of the few games I finished while rating for the jam. Congratulations :)
Thank you so much for your feedback and the kind words! I’m glad you liked it! :)
Cheers!
Hey this game was great! An awesome interpretation of the theme, and the puzzles were really good, they're challenging because of good design, not because of frustrating mechanics. I love the color choices and UI design, along with the music being implemented really nicely.
Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad you liked the puzzles.
Cheers!
Hey! I liked the way you interpreted the light and darkness theme in your game, making it the core of the puzzles 💡
I managed to get to level 9, I'm not sure if there are more, but I found it quite fun!
Once I understood the mechanics of planning where each side should be in relation to the other, to finish the level, the last few went very smoothly.
Congrats on the game, it's a pretty solid entry, and the interface is also very consistent (and I'd say it's the most complete options menu I've seen in the jam so far) 🎉
Thank you so much for your feedback!
Your kind words mean a lot to me.
Cheers!
That is a really fun puzzle game!! The levels were really well thought out. I also really enjoyed the art style and music design. Overall a lot of fun :)
Thank you very much for the feedback!
Cheers!
Haven't felt this stupid since portal 2. 5/5.
Haha, thank you for your feedback!
I plan to work on it more, adding new levels with fresh mechanics and balancing the overall difficulty of the level design in the near future.
Cheers!
This is pretty neat! super simple yet a very challenging one. The color scheme and the simple art style really complements each other. Cheers!
Thanks! I appreciate your feedback!
I tried to keep it as simple and abstract as possible, with most of my focus on the overall design and mood, player movement, and level design.
Cheers!
Nice game! Controlling 2 characters at the same time was a pretty fun challenge, and save from some jumps with low ceilings I think the levels fit the controls quite well.
Thank you! I'm still at the beginning of my game dev journey (this is my first jam).
I plan to add more levels and mechanics, and maybe release it as a full game someday!
Cheers!
