The idea is interesting but at this point there's no point in Ben presence in the game.
I also tried the button on the upper left corner, but besides pausing the game I don't understand what they do.
Cool concept, as others have said it does feel a bit short - that's a good thing though - it means that I was engaged enough to want to play more. I think you could take this farther. You had some basic mechanics but you could add more, more obstacles, more kinds of walls, more complicated level design, enemies, etc. The idea has a lot of potential.
I do appreciate that this is a unique take on this kind of game. I have seen other games like this in the jam where you control two characters with one input system, but none where the character wrap around the screen. I would keep trying to add distinguishing elements like that.
I actually never considered moving two characters with the same input before! A cool idea that has huge potential for sure. I definitely think Ben should have some purpose as well. Hope you keep working on this!
The idea is cool, i know probably the time wasn't enough for the jam but with some future update can be cooler. More ability, more level, a bit of sprite rework. I vote the idea and the idea is great!
A cool little game. Maybe Ben can have an ability too with future updates
Very simple design.
Some suggestions:
- Add the ability for Bob to open a door to allow Ben to get to the end together
- Add levels where Ben get's Bob to the end and vice versa
- Add a timer that counts down making it where Bob or Ben or Both have to reach the Next level box.
