What a challenging game! I included it in my Yogscast Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Wow! Thank you so much! This means a lot to me! Thanks for taking the time to look at my game!

I had a good time! Found the last level pretty difficult, but it seems appropriate for a last level, and most importantly, I did feel the drive to keep trying until I beat it. Not being able to jump while tilted was annoying at times but once I slowed down and approached things more patiently, it wasn't an issue. All-in-all, good stuff!
Hi! Thank you for commenting! I'm glad that you had a great time!

Great idea, and mostly a very fun game! - the small and medium were really fun, though large felt unforgiving at times.
Hi! Thank you for commenting! I'm glad you thought it was fun and I definitely see where you are coming from with the large size. It really is unforgiving and really hard! Hopefully I can use this advice to make better games in the future! Thanks!

Fun idea. I think the jumping when large was a bit too difficult. Medium and small were great though, and the music was quite catchy.
Hi! Thank you for your kind words! I can definitely see where you were coming from, and I also think that the large size was difficult too. Hopefully I can use this advice in future games! Thanks!

Nice game. Only thing I'd suggest is that your large size have a more forgiving jump detection, especially since some of the jumps require precise timing and if you're just over the half-way point of being on or off a platform you can't jump at all.
Might want to look into coyote jumping for your next game if you want to implement more responsive jump controls
Hi! Thank you for your advice! I might take a look at coyote jumping and implement it into future games. Thanks for commenting!

Great job. The way the main character tumbled and rolled through the scene made me chuckle. Maybe the heavy character can hit weighted switches or weighted platforms that push down and open up area for the small guy.
Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! Those are some really good ideas, and I actually thought of adding something like that to the game. Unfortunately, it was too late to start putting new stuff in the game, so I just skipped over it. Thanks for commenting and I hope I can use your advice to make better games in the future.

Interesting mechanic! Though it was pretty easy to get stuck and not having a reset really slowed the pace or halted progress.
Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! Even though you can technically get out if you get stuck, I can see what you mean. If I ever try to make another game in the future, I'll take your advice. Thanks!

Nice mechanic, I love the ability to change your size, it makes for some good puzzles! Having to wedge the big guy between two platforms wasn't something I'd think of normally, but it worked quite well! The tutorial was great too, it helped explain things very well so I wasn't just cluelessly moving around when the game started - I always appreciate a good tutorial. I loved the expression on the character's face too - reminds me a lot of myself. And the music was also very good! Well done on this game, I liked it!
Thank you very much! This means a lot to me!

Is there not a reset button if you get stuck?
Hi! There isn't a reset button because you can actually work yourself out if you get stuck. You just have to figure it out! Thanks for leaving a comment!

Pretty cool game, the music choice was good!
my only criticism is that the movement felt a bit clunky and could be improved upon.
Hi! Thank you for your comment! Hopefully I can use your feedback to make better games in the future.
