How does your game fit the theme?
In this puzzle-platformer, you can scale everything in the level using portals of different sizes. Not only that, you can also scale the portals themselves, leading to loads of fun puzzle-solving.

Thanks for playing. There were a few issues with the portals that we couldn't get fixed in time during the jam unfortunately. We did include a reset and skip button to help alleviate in the case the player got stuck. Being able to push multiple crate is a great idea which we'll have a look at after along with pulling crates through portals as this is something we were aiming for but ran out of time to do. Thanks for your feedback.
The song is so cute! Fits nicely with the aesthetics. Damn I really love your GMTK entries lol.
The small dust clouds when the characters lands feel a bit odd, due to being so static.
On the 4th level (I guess, the one where you scale a box appearing on a portal up), I think I died while spawning carrying the box, dunno why.
Sometimes carrying a big box through the portal bugged the box, like it clipped out of the stage.
By the way I couldn't get past this stage, either I'd get softlocked or would die not able to spawn again when carrying the box through the left portal.
Kudos on making such a charming fun puzzle!
Hi, thanks for playing and the feedback, appreciate the kind words. There was a few bugs with we couldn't completely resolve in the game jam timeframe. And certain levels are more likely to expose them. We did include the skip and reset buttons to try and help out if the player ever got stuck because of a bug or when trying to solve a level.

Thankyou for playing and the kind feedback. Unfortunately we ran out of time to squash out bugs completely in the game and they show up more often in certain levels. We included a skip and reset button in case the player ever got stuck. We had an in-game text description explaining the pull mechanic but I think teaching it in a tutorial level is a great idea too and something we will definitely add post jam, thanks for the suggestion :)

Thanks for playing! Was one of the level designers so I'm glad to hear you liked the puzzles.
Thanks for checking out our game. We did our best to get to as many bugs as possible but a few still crept through unfortunately, and they do show up more often in certain levels as you would have discovered. We will try to address them as best as we can in a post jam update. We appreciate the kind words :)
