Great take on the theme. Had a lot of fun making it through all the levels. Nice touch with the scaling main menu title. Great job.

Fun interpretation of the theme. There were quite a few bugs with physics that made the earlier levels challenging, but they actually made the last two levels possible :) Unintended gameplay still counts as gameplay!

Yes! I'm aware of these issues. The problem was that I found out about these once the jam was already over, and it didn't seem fair to upload a fixed version of the game after the deadline. Thanks a lot for testing the game! I might fix these issues once the jam results are out!

This 100% needs more attention. Definitely a job well done with implementing the theme in a creative way, and it's  challenging but not too challenging. Overall very fun and clean gameplay!

An interesting premise, but unfortunately, since the scaling has little restrictions, the puzzles are extremely easy. The art style is great, and I love the sound he makes when he jumps. All in all, it's still a fun little puzzle game to play.

Thanks a lot for playing! Yeah, I would have loved to make more challenging and interesting puzzles, but I didn't get enough time to work on designing the puzzles as the mechanic itself took most of the dev time. Glad you liked the game!
