Wow this is incredible! Amazing work!

This was incredible! Felt like something you would pay money for on Steam (maybe you should expand this into a full game?) Like others, I had trouble with the difficulty because of my minuscule squirrel brain - I got stuck on the first lever level. This was really a wonderful experience though! It's only 7:30 am and you already made my day :)

You are one of the few peoples that deserve some super high praises by the way you used the kit...

I won't go into detail, I'm sure others pointed out some great stuff about it. What stand out the most for me was the mechanic. Damn!

I hope I can make something like this in the future, it inspired me! Thanks a lot!

The bright pink made it hard to see at first, but my eyes quickly adjusted. Overall, really creative
and fun. The game is pretty difficult, but I like it this way. Really forces you to think to beat each level.

Amazing game with a great concept. However, due to the nature of the game, it's a bit too difficult. Maybe something that can help is to allow the player to remove the symmetry mechanic visuals to be able to scout the map. I don't know what half of the map is when I start the level, so I can't possibly come up with a strategy.

Really fun mechanic for a puzzle game that added a lot of difficulty. Also can i just say one of the prettiest icons in the mizjam submission lists, all around beautiful design and super creative.

Developer

Glad you liked it. As for icons, they're one of my favorite parts of making a game as it plays an important role. So I appreciate you pointing it out!

Mind bending.

This is a really inovative puzzlle mecanic and is visible that much game design and technical art was required from this game.

Honestly amazing. I would pay money for this game. The only things I thought were missing were more levels to ease the learning curve and maybe a story. Great amount of polish. Definitely the best one I've played thus far.

Incredible game, I would place my bet on this one as the winner

Woah what a game! The puzzle system is really simple, but at the same time it is clever and challenging, the perfect mix! 

Everything was almost very good, except the jumps, indeed, sometimes I had trouble to reach the right spot, I bumped often against the wall.

But, it is a minor issue, so don't worry, your work is still marvelous!

I suspect this could be the number one spot for this jam, a really stunning complete game! I have never seen a puzzle game like this, great job!

The single best game I played until now in this jam.

Where do I start?

  • Well, the concept of rotating 2 mirrored worlds is fantastic and you made it work terrific. +2 star.
  • So I was drawn by the curiosity about the mechanics immediately. +1 star.
  • The level design made it super difficulty. +1 star.
  • The continuous enforcement out of the regular thinking. +1 star.

So that is 5/5 on engagement.

  • The two color theme of the game makes it visually attractive. +2 star.
  • Visuals were simple but in line with the rest of the game. +1 star.
  • All assets were logically used and made perfect sense in the context. +1 star.
  • The merging of worlds was really well done. +1 star.

Sooooo that would be another 5 star…

  • Do you know I love games with interactive main menus? You read my idiotic mind there… +1 star.
  • Dynamics of the game were really polished. Waterfalls ending where it should. Gravity in the mirror, rotation of the mirror was blocked by the player when stopped… Millions of s––y details! +2 star.
  • You could not jump on slopes of more than 45 degrees. Pro anti-cheat that ruined all my attempts! +1 star.
  • Music and sound effects fitted perfectly since it was so f—–g hard that drives you crazy! No other music could have made me keep going… +1 more f—–g star.

Oh s—t! Now you forced me to give you 15 stars for your great work for a jam. xD

I would have paid for this game.

Thank you for such a detailed review!  I really appreciate your enthusiasm and I'm overjoyed that you enjoyed it :)

Love the game, really nice puzzles, with only 48hrs, congrats!

What a great concept, and the implementation of it was flawless. Gotta love the little detail of preventing killing the player when moving the reflection with the arrow keys.

This was mind bending and a great concept. I really enjoyed playing it. Well done!

Really good game. Excellent new idea and very polished. Had a lot of fun playing it. Well done! :)

Submitted(+2)

Damn I love this game, this is incredible. The colour palette is beautiful the menu is simplistic but beautiful and explains the main mechanic immediately. The polish is amazing as well with nice particles and screen shake etc. The puzzles are really nice and slowly progress in difficulty and the soundtrack is amazing as well. Definitely one of the better games in this game jam very well done especially in that time limit.
