  • GDD The pace of the document is good. Good with images in inspirations. However the document felt too short. Ya might want to included minimum viable product / dev timeline or game mechanics with images. Game The art seems minimalism. Ya might want to change the turnable button to something a little easier to spot. It looks like a mouth from a elder god. I noticed that it doesnt have an proper end of the level, so it just repeated the level. But where is alchemy in this?

Prototype for a 2D game about jumping on shadows and manipulating them to progress. Turn off lights and move them to manipulate shadow platforms.
Short game, contains only one level, getting to the end sends you back to the beginning.

The sound effects and animations felt a little off but a fun minimalistic game
