Very clever idea. The game is very well polished and makes great use of the themes. I also really appreciate the cute pixel art. All around fantastic job!
It would mean a lot if you could check out my Jam submission if you get the chance. Thanks!

This is well polished! Great job! Keep it up!
Full 5 Stars!
I'd really like to know what do you think of my game.

Lights out!Very nicely done! The pillow mechanics and avoiding your past self are really well designed and do a good job fitting in the theme without sacrificing gameplay. The game feels extremely polished and very fun.
Only thing I'd tweak are the pillow mechanics so that it's easier to jump on a bouncing pillow and to maybe include a button to pick it up if you are around it instead of automatically picking it up.
Overall though, it's incredible you were able to create this game in the time given. Awesome work!

A Cave TaleThank you so much! There's an option in the settings to enable click to pick up so you don't accidentally pick up the pillow, i personally didn't like it so i defaulted it what it is right now. Will also be tweaking how it is now, it definitely needs some work. Will check out your game as well when i get a chance!
I really like your way of approaching the theme, I myself used complete different approach with the theme Would love for you to check it out and give me your thoughts about it :)

Shadow RecallIf this isn't the highest rated game of the jam im going to T H R O W H A N D S. Congratulations, this is the most polished game i've seen and played thus far. Executes on the focus and theme with flying colors and its a simple yet clever puzzle platformer. Honestly I'm jealous :)

Coalescence (Vimjam)Very cool game! Love the retro looking graphics and the fun pillow idea. I remember an old GMTK jam where there was one tool for everything and I think this would have fit great there too. It's always a thrill when you can use something as simple as a pillow for a handful of things. I couldn't get past level 12 though...sorry :( just couldn't jump up that high.

Cave BanditsI really like this one. The theme is shown really well and I like the shadow clones you have to dodge on the way bacK!

VimJam: Round Trip DungeonReally nice visual aesthetic and concept! I love the snore noise - it cracked me up. The controls felt smooth, and I thought it was very wise to have the control prompts in the background. Dodging your past selves was an enjoyable challenge. Keep it up and I can't wait to see what else you create!

Expecting GroceriesThis game was very fun and challenging, even on normal mode. I thought the music and visuals went really well together, and the player was fun to control. The only issue I really had was with the pillow. It was a little tough to judge where it was going to land when I threw it sometimes. I think adding a reticle or something might be helpful. Only being able to collect it by walking into the side of it was also kind of frustrating, as sometimes I would jump up through it and bounce when I didn't mean to. Other than those problems, really great work!

Crypt of GreedOne of my favorite games yet! I've only played the first 6-7 levels and I'm hooked! I had to stop due to classes, but can't wait to play more. Not sure where you when wrong here. You've separated yourself from other platformer submissions with the unique "replay/shadow" effect. The game was fun, challenging, and fair. Art was very polished and music was very fitting as well. I can't really see much wrong. Awesome Submission!

Hardcore FrogkourReally fun! Sometimes it was hard to avoid the shadows because they came out of the entrance right when you went in, and sometimes the music glitched a bit. Besides that, very clever and fun
