Nice little puzzle/logic game! The magnetism was implemented well, and the production values were good. Great job!

This was great, especially for a first game! The puzzles were really good, just the right amount of challenge without being too difficult. Very good ^^

Thank you for the criticism! I admit, the animation was made that way mostly to save time. As for the jump, personally, I felt something missing when it wasn't there, like the movement was restricted. But that's just my opinion and I get why you'd think it's unnecessary! Thanks for the comment either way!

Very good for a first game! Took me a few tries to complete level 3. Concept is good, wish there was few more levels, visually little hard to see if player was blue colored. Music and art was fitting, simple and clear! Nice work

Thank you! I wanted to make the final level a challenge and at first I thought I made it too easy until I got another person to play it, which revealed that it was as difficult as I wanted. It's good to hear that it wasn't just a fluke!

It's a lot better than my first game! Reminded me of puzzles from Portal 2, which is great.

Art work is cute too, nice work!

Nice work... especially for a first game. Great use of the magnets, and the ability to reverse your magnetism, and switch the magnet beams was super fun. Led to some good puzzles.

I also got stuck on level 3. The box wouldn't respawn... :( I think it's a quick fix to make the reset also reset the boxes.

Great game though. Cheers.

Oh? Did the R key not reset the boxes? It did in my testing... or do you mean the button that spawns the boxes, in which case I couldn't implement it due to time constraints. Either way, thanks for the comment!

Fun idea, but could use some work. I got stuck on the last level.

Good idea and good art but the game doesnt work in the 3rd level, you cant make the box respawn after press the E button once

I know... I wanted to make the box respawnable but ran out of time, since this was my first game and I didn't really know what I was doing. I just had a band-aid solution in the form of a restart button. Thanks for the feedback tho!

no problem, I also got caught by time and couldnt add as many levels as i wanted but apart from a small bug your game is really good :D
