How does your game fit the theme?
Stonelings revolves around a gameplay loop of switching between characters, using one Stoneling to support the next. You create a loop of actions—turn one into a block, use another to progress, reactivate the first—and repeat. Each puzzle is a loop of planning, executing, and revisiting your past moves to move forward

nice game, love it
sweet art!
This was a really cute game! I thought of a similar idea but could only think of spooky skeletons for it. I liked how you took it in a calming golem direction instead! The controls felt a bit strange, but the vibes were just right here.
I REALLY like this. The art is fantastic, the sound design is great and the music is nice and calming. The concept is cool and fun. Honestly the only thing that bothers me is the platforming controls feel a bit off, and can be a bit frustrating.
If it was a little more tuned and satisfying this would be something very special.
Awesome job! Great game
AMAZING GAME !!!
Very nice Idea! I love the art as well.
The art work and puzzles were really fun, I Especially liked the light rays and the concept of using the prior stone bodies as platforms or statues.
I enjoyed it ! :):)
Gosh I wish I could make this full screen on the site! This is gorgeous!
Simple and to the point, loving the concept of switching together and have your Stonelings work together one Stoneling at a time!
I do find it odd though why you do need to hold the W key just to switch Stonelings when for the most part all of them are within click range.
…but it seems this is a demo and definitely has some potential to be a full experience! I sure hope your plans come into fruition then!
Haha, now where you say it, yeah the "W" key is kind of pointless. I had the cursor hidden in the beginning and so W would toggle it on and off. Definetly something to consider after the jam : ), Thanks
I liked your graphics, casual-pixel is very nice, it's a pity that you didn't have time to make a background. The game lacks something else besides the puzzle, try to consider adding fun and funny events to attract the player to the game.
This is probably my favorite jam submission I've seen! The movement is great, the artwork is adorable, the puzzles are fun and not too difficult, the audio is very calming and satisfying, AMAZING job!! I really hope you continue this game, I would absolutely buy it on Steam.
Really well designed!I love the artwork
Really love the overall vibe, however for some reason the S key didnt work when activating the energy thing. But I could still play it pretty well without them!
Just to make sure. You would have to hold S to turn into a Statue, then bring another Stoneling onto the moving Plattform, switch to the one on the Runestone to activate it and then switch back to the one on the plattform and cross on the other side. If it still doesnt work, i will look into that after the jam : ) Thanks for the Feedback
Love the artwork!
Really nice game, however the "W" key do not seems to work for me. Maybe beacause of my keyboard? for you information I use a steelseries keyboard if it can help. Still I enjoyed the game.
Oh, ok, im sorry to hear that. Possibly your Keyboard, as you said. My tests ran smoothly. When you press W once, all available statues in Range begin to blink with a blue outline and then you can click on them. This does not include the stonelings you havent activated yet. I will look into that after the voting period of the Jam
Ohh ok, I understand now when pressed the "E" key I had the blue outline but I didn't know I had to click on the stonneling.
Thanks for the tips.
My keyboard has this strange behaviour, I cannot use WASD because it is all messed up, do not know why it does that.
Anyway nice game.
Have a good day.
