cool idea! Was stuck on the last level as well, but figured it out by reading the comments! Cool little game you made, it's actually a really cool mechanic and with some more sounds and effects, it would be even better! Good job!

I thought is was a bug when i can roll underground, but it was real feature!

It was fun to play this game!

I really enjoyed this clever little puzzle game. I actually restarted the game because I thought the last level was glitched but I just didn't pay enough attention to the whitespace mechanic.

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you figured it out because a lot of people are struggling on the last level. I'll make sure to make it more clear what you're supposed to do after the jam.

Your game is better than you think! I would definitely come back for more levels!

The music is good. Same with the sound effects. The art, while not good is passable. The mechanics are really fun and interesting. Good game. 

Developer

Thank you. I'm sorry I can't play yours since I have to download it, but I'm sure you did a great job.

This game is very fun! It has a pretty good feel to it, and it's nice to have the indicator that shows where you're going to end up. I also found the simplicity and the unusualness of the idea of a little red circle guy collecting his potatos weirdly charming haha! Great job!

Nice idea, the levels were a little easy but I found the game to be very fun nonetheless. The teleport mechanic was very easy to understand and the level design is great as well. Great job!

You say in your description "Sorry This isn't very good", but that's not really true, I think this one of the better entries I've played. It doesn't waste my time, it's clear on how to play, the music is trippy and interesting, some of the puzzles require a few seconds of though to solve. Good job.

fun game and cool concept.

Really cool concept, but I got stuck on the level with the big grey platform in the center. Maybe I missed something obvious!

Developer

Thanks! Don't worry, you didn't miss anything obvious, I just did a really bad job at explaining that you need to teleport into the ground without touching the edge to roll around inside the ground.

Cool mechanic! I like the teleporting idea with the puzzles! I got stuck on one of the levels however since there was no way to get on one of the platforms, unless I was missing some important instructions.

But very cool and nice job in a short amount of time!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it. Sorry you got stuck on one of the levels. I probably should have explained that if you are touching the bottom edge of the screen, you can't move. Hope that helps.

I love how much you can do with simple concept!
