How does your game fit the theme "Unconventional Means"?
You have to use the "Developer Test Panel" to go to future levels! Instead of being a normal platformer, you have to use UNCONVENTIONAL ways to play levels, change size, speed and even the jump height.

This idea is awesome! A game you have to hack to beat the levels, brilliant!
The only problem I found is that you can actually wall jump in this game. I think it was not supposed to be possible to do this.

Mind Controllercopy paste of my rating from your itch page: Camera left my soul. Super meat boy vibes. Holy nice level design, really frustrating yet rewarding 4/5

Aquatic MeansAlpha Play Test Ups and Downs
Ups
- Audio is probably the best I've heard yet from what I've tried in this jam
- Despite the simple art style, the game looks elegant
- The concept is really original and works fairly well in practice
Downs
- For some reason, I was able to jump multiple more times than twice at some parts and I am not really sure why
Overall, a really clever and fun game!

WrenchformWhile not the first game to use dev options as a gameplay aspect, this put a cool spin on it, Great job! My only real issues would be that the spike hitboxes were a bit inconsistent in some levels, and that it became easy to exploit infinite jumps in some areas when mixed with dashes into walls.
Also if you could check my game out that would be great!

One Million MonkeysI really liked the music, and the concept was really cool!

Don't Bring a Croc to a GunfightReally interesting concept and executed very well. Also I don't know if it is intentional but you could push into the walls to gain infinite jumps and I may have used that to skip some of the difficulty on certain levels :P .

Play the gameI love how you put the player in the shoes of the developer to navigate their way through this game! The progression of difficulty was perfect too. Absolutely stunning.

Temple of PortalsWell made, basic platformer mechanics and movement work great. All the different ways the main mechanic is used is great. Good job!

Temple of PortalsNice take on the theme, I found the levels to be just the right difficulty. I think the player movement could be a bit more polished and controlled to ease the tight platforming sections. The camera should also show the player any possible blind spots, as I found that sometimes I couldn't properly judge a jump. Other than that, I found this game to be very enjoyable and well made. Great work!

Mission ImpracticalReally well polished, everything flowed together nicely. Was a little confused at first bc I tried to ignore the developer test panel. Also found a third jump if you don't jump too high the first time. Great game overall!

Farm Kwon DoWell made! I enjoyed this unique experience. although as the pervious guy I had the same issue of having trouble maneuvering around tight levels. Very Fun!
