The character that we play as is part of the environment. We control a cloud to rescue our star babies, which the game is named after them.

I really enjoyed playing your game... The puzzles are well designed to teach gradually the mechanics... I had a bit of trouble knowing wich cloud had inverted comands, but I got used to it eventually.
Really cute game! took me a good minute to figure out what was going on but after that the puzzles were really fun to figure out. Nice job!
On a side note, the getting off grid bug others have mentioned scared me a bit the first time it happened since the music just turned into static for some reason. I thought the game is about to turn into some analog horror type thing lol
Edit: One thing that I think would add a lot is an undo mechanic. I had to reset the entire level quite a few times because i did one wrong move by accident. Didn't really matter that much since the puzzles were quite simple, but it would improve user experience a bit, especially if you plan on adding more complex levels
Thank you very much! Don’t worry, I don’t like horror games at all so you won’t be expecting any unexpected horror from us haha!
You’re absolutely right about the undo mechanic and it was on my mind from the very beginning, but I just didn’t have enough time to include it unfortunately. We are most definitely going to implement it though!
Cute and very polished! Lovley to see another cloud based puzzle game!
Lovely game! love the art. I found a bug where if you spam the arrow or WASD keys, you can make the cloud guys go off the grid.
Very polished game! I was impressed with the surprisingly un-buggy movement system considering its complexity - well done :D
Thank you very much! It was VERY complicated alright, that’s why we had to do a late submission, because I spent the first FOUR days just to get the mechanic right ^^’ It still has some flaws, but we managed to submit just one day before the voting period ends, thanks to the amazing admins of this jam.
We’re happy to have become a part of it, and we’re just happy to hear nice words from other devs!
Cool art style and visual effects. The levels are fun and easy to go through once you get the hang of the splitting/opposite direction movement.
Some of the clouds got excited and jumped out of the trail and got stuck in this level:
I think it happens when you press two keys at the same time while attempting to move quickly. But no big deal since the project is still a work in progress.
Overall this is an enjoyable little game. Good job.
Aww I love this! It's all cute and fluffy and pink <3
Everything fits well together and is pleasing to look at, the sounds are also adorable and the music fits well. The clouds are environmental, and the gameplay really incorporates the fusion theme in a creative way.
There's really nothing to complain about, except at a certain point I couldn't progress and I didn't know whether I was just too dumb to figure it out or whether it's because the game isn't finished (as you mentioned in the description).
In any case, I'd say this is a personal favorite of mine so far! :D
You can definitely complete all the levels that are available in this version of the game, once you figure out the “trick” behind most “hard” levels! We are very glad to hear you’ve enjoyed the game though!
Edit: The trick that I mentioned is not a bug/glitch or anything by the way lol, the levels are completely solveable. We’ve tested with a couple of friends before submitting here ^^
