Liked the idea, really good job on the sound effects. :)
Having to wait at the checkpoint was really confusing at first, I tried jumping of the large gap and only found out what to do after waiting around and reading the instructions again to see if I overlooked something.
The wall jumping feels a little bit clunky to me, would be nice to have a bigger upwards move and more air control after a wall jump so I can stick back to the wall faster.
Cool idea and a good take on the theme. Definitely agree with the assessment below that it would be great to see an indicator on which enemies want to move where.
Also, the input is too sticky for my taste. It's pretty much impossible to decide you don't want to move after all once you pressed the button already. Would be cool if I could hold down the move button and it gets read when the move happens but if I decide to release it early before the next move I should keep standing instead.
I died quite a few times because my little guy went in a different direction than the one I wanted.
Haha, we spent the last 2 hours of the jam speeding up the rounds, it was even slower in the first prototype. Not enough time for a fast forward button but next time we will add one. :)
I can certainly say that I was never threatened by a sock puppet...until now. Took a while to get a hang of it but it's a neat idea with great puppet theater!
I beat the game! Glitched through the wall by letting the snail on top blast me through the wall.
Really awesome game, did you do the music yourself? Absolute bangers. Art is really nice and I liked the gameplay.
Two small issues:
The area where collision is detected between the dragonflies and the player is too large, it sometimes turns around when standing on them or when it approaches a ledge.
The timers between the attempts don't save on every level for some reason.
Movement felt really great and I really enjoyed the difficulty! Jumping could take a little bit of tweaking, it sometimes felt a little bit too jerky for my taste.
I'm not sure if it's on purpose but are you just able to tether all enemies except the boss? I just carried all of them off the stage with no issues but it says I should weaken them first?
Really fun, would have loved to have a static rotation of levels with a clear end goal to reach. Always had the feeling I didn't get to see all levels.
Good idea on mirroring the levels for more variation though!
Really great idea, I would play a full version of this!
In Level 6 it says "All Numbers must add up 9" which confused me for a moment if "add up to 9" was really what was meant.
As mentioned below, I also don't think you needed the platformer passage to stay entertaining. I would have played a few more levels with the normal rules.
Overall great idea and really fits the theme. I really liked the Story cutscene! :)
