You have some cool effects and a very strong ambiance! The game is fun, I’d like to play with a controller. The squishing that let’s you go between platforms is a great idea. There’s some potential here.

Congrats for your entry.

The lighting effect was very cool. I also liked the way the cube distorted with certain movements. Overall nice work on this! One small suggestion I'd give would be to slow down the cube a little. It felt a bit hard to control.

Graphics were so cool but it was hard to see them with that vignette effect

Fun concept, the controls were brutal though, couldn't get past the level with a slight overhanging floor because I could only jump up or fall to the left

Nice effects. The controls were a little tricky with the slippery floors and tricky wall jumps. I was stuck at the wall jump with the overhang.

I will rate your game :) Thanks to you for rating mine!

Very nice game, the fact you made everything is very cool, congrats.

The idea of the square get smaller is good and add a good variety of mechanics, but I think you can make it clearer, because I only noticed this is helpful after I read your reply here.

And, at least for me, its is better to jump using W, maybe add this button for jump and the player can choose which one is better for him? Just a suggestion. In general, I liked everything in the game.

Thanks for the feedback! :)

I forgot to put more inputs for the jump. I also didn't have time to put some indications or help in the levels. But when I have more time I'll make an update of the game upgradig and solving the issues that you put in the comments. Thanks again!

I think I'll put some help and advices in the game's description.

I like the idea of having to come back to the start with all those thunders coming out.

NIce game.

Nice work! I got stuck at level 4 where you have to jump because the platform is blocking it. The player character is moving a little too fast. Music is great!

BioinvasionDeveloper4 years ago(+1)

You don't have to jump, if you move fast enough, the player gets small enough to pass under the vertical platform.

Thanks for playing and for the feedback!

Good gamee. I like how you made the music yourself, and the game looks SICK with the neon. And the lightning looks really cool. The level design is nice. Only critisism I have is that the main character maybe feels a bit too fast, making it feel more like an action game then a puzzle game.

Thanks very much for playing! Yep, definitely I have to reduce the player speed.
