Enjoyable little game. While I did find the game fun, it would have been nice if the difficulty got a bit harder towards the end. And like some others have already mentioned - music or SFX would be nice, but the game is still very entertaining as it is. Some sacrifices will be made when the time frame is as short as it is in the game jam. Very nice work and great submission! :)

Thanks a lot for the feedback!  I was thinking of potentially updating it with a few more levels post game jam, will see if the time allows it! :)

The idea is fun, and especially the last two levels was really fun. A bit too many easy levels. The game needs some music and sound effects. But overall and interesting and fun little puzzle game.

I like puzzle games like this. Wish there was a way to end a loop early as I get impatient!

I enjoyed this one, and initially considered doing a similar concept for our game. I would have loved some audio and music, but otherwise a very enjoyable experience!

Thanks a lot! The missing SFX and FX are my big regrets but unfortunately I didn't have the time.

No worries, that's what game jams are for! Still had a great time, so thank you!

Nice idea and cool puzzles. Really liked the concept

Nice idea, fairly basic puzzles to start with that could have built up to some interesting levels. One of the red doors bugged out, starting open and then closing which prevented me from getting too far. Also, the camera angle is such that you often can't see yourself hitting the finish line which is blocked by the rising door and a bit unsatisfying.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that the 3C definetly needed more love.  The Red door closing is not a bug, without spoiling too much, the pressure plate in that level is controlling both the red and blue door making the red one close while the blue one opens so you need to time it right with your loopie. :)

Just went back and had another go, managed to get all the way through this time. When I played the first time I viewed those switches as a half size red and blue switch next to each other on the ground (2 seperate ones) rather than one switch with 2 colours. Also, the movement of the doors as they move up could be a bit smoother as my eye is drawn to them quite a lot.

I like the idea of you not having enough characters so sometimes they have to perform double duty.

Nice one! It would be great to have puzzles with more loops and sounds

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I fully agree that would have been the next step if I had more time!

Well executed concept, total lack of audio though, would be nice to have some sounds (platform activation, walking) and some background music. Also, a button to go to the next loop without having to wait would be nice. Overall pretty fun !
