Game Description
Sideshow is a small 2D puzzle-platformer where you erase tiles and get both halves of the heart to the goals!
How does your game tie into the theme?
The player must erase tiles from one half of the screen to make them appear on the other, getting rid of obstacles and building paths to get to the goals.

Really great puzzle gameplay with switching back and fourth between the two sides and balancing pathways to completion, good work
Great little puzzle platformer. I had fun to the end!
That was fun. The presentation was a bit weird (not scaling), but would be easy to fix I guess.
Loved the music filter for planning/action mode. had a blast playing til the end!
Just saw that this is your first GWJ submission! even more awesome!
Really cool game! I love the idea, and the puzzle-platformer is executed really well.
I think it would be cool if you could have the position be the same on both “halves”, that way you could quickly toggle over and see if you’re going to place the object in the spot you expect. An undo button would also be nice.
Overall, really well done, this was fun!
Very clever puzzle idea! Fun to play and engaging! I don't know if the fact that the game fills only 25% of the viewport is intended. Good game anyway!
nice little puzzle game once i figured out the control, loved the retro vibes. My only issue was, that every brower i tried -Chrome, Firefox and Safari - the playable area only took up 25% of the area, making it pretty hard to play.
I had the same problem!
Ah, thanks for the screenshot! I probably messed something up in the display scaling settings, the game viewport and controls are scaled correctly for me in Firefox/Vivaldi on Linux. I'll try to fix that after judging is over!
Very cool idea, I like puzzles that make you think. I also really liked the sound effects. I wish I could use my mouse though to click the blocks out!
I really liked the stylistic choices of this one from the shutter sounds to retro look of the everything . It took me a minute to figure out exactly how it all worked but I enjoyed the challenging platform/puzzle blend once it clicked. I feel like it could benefit from a brief tutorial/overlay - mostly indicating that an erased tile will switch sides. Great work!
Very cool take on the theme!
