I loved the mechanics and the levels design!

Cons:

  • The controls some time didn't work and was a bit frustrating (ie. multiple times I tried to run and jump but the jump didn't work). This was a bit anoying in the "goes up and then goes down" and "Catch and move it!" levels.
  • The green blocks confused me because I associated "green = good" and at the start and I thought it was OK to jump on them xD
  • Sometimes the fast change between far keys (AD and arrows) was confusing

Pros:

  • Nice mechanics!
  • Simple but nice graphics!
  • Nice level design!
  • Godot is always a plus for me ;-)
  • Nice trick for making us replay it ;-)

Lastly I just have a question: what the "1" means on the blocks? :-P

Hey, thank you for playing the game! Means a lot to me. 

Yes, I agree that the arrow keys and the WASD combination can be a bit frustrating, however I'll be updating it! A bit strange how the jump doesn't work at times, I will look into that. 

Thanks for the feedback, will take a note of all the cons and improve the pros :)

kewl game ngl, my only complaint is that the game is too hard and that the player is slow and the jump is smoll, i liked the magic mech and if made into a proper story, i hope the boxes are explained it could be a rlly creative story


btw i cant rate cuz i havent submitted a game

Cool idea, but I think the controls could be improved. It's difficult to use WASD on one side of the keyboard with one hand, then the mouse on the other side of the keyboard with the other, then letting go of one of those to use the arrow keys. I think the arrow keys left and right should be replaced with Q and E, or with Left Mouse Click and Right Mouse Click, where the middle mouse click selects things.


Other than that though, great game! I enjoyed it, but I can't rate it because I haven't submitted my own entry.

Thanks a lot, CosmoBrain! Yes, I agree with you, I need to change the controls. It is a bit eerie. And don't worry about the ratings :D
