I am so drawn to the look of this game. Presentation is truly amazing. Very difficult game to wrap my head around, but it was still a good time regardless. I'd be interested to see a future for this game because I like the style and the idea quite a bit. I'd appreciate a bit of an easier start to adjust to the controls. This is really cool.

Developer

thanks!!!

Cool concept, mixing VVVVVV with layered levels, I would've liked some easier levels at the start, just so I could better learn how the player controls, but I also don't mind the novelty of the immediate difficulty spike. I was also a bit confused by the two layers appearing at the same time, maybe some more indication of which one is which would help, but I also understand the limitation of the jam makes that quite difficult. Still, it's a very fun game, and a concept I would definitely be keen to see more of!

I liked the concept, though the game was really hard at first. It got easier over time. :)

Developer

Nice Game. Overall I do enjoy the difficulty. Though, I did get stuck in the level with the floating “LOL”s since I couldn’t quite grasp the timing to pass them. I really liked the feel of the way character controls. The first two levels where also very nice.

Here is some criticism too: I would have preferred the layer switching to be on one button only, instead of the two. Even after some time I still got a bit confused to which button I should press to get to the other layer. Another thing is that the collision for the spikes seems to match the size of the graphics exactly, which is a tad bit to large imo.

Developer

thanks for feedback!!

Developer

Really glad you've enjoyed it! we did get the criticism about the multiple buttons already and it absolutely makes sense! the point about the hitboxes is also very very interesting though. making it a little bit more forgiving may have been a good idea yes!

It's really difficult to beat, but I love the concept!

I saw a game like this before but i cant remember the game(it had similar mechanics). But i enjoyed playing, good job!

Submitted(+1)

I'm pretty sure it's VVVVVV

Developer

could it have been that game where you switch between 3D and 2D using your background? Toodee and Topdee?

Developer

Yes! I was inspired by the game VVVVVV and Time Fcuk, essentially crossing them together, hahaha

Difficult, but a really cool and endearing concept and use of the limitation. Barely made it past the first level, but liked the game enough that I stuck with it until I did!

Developer

that's a huge compliment by itself thank you so much!!! it means a lot and am glad you enjoyed the concept so much :3

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! your game is awesome too!

Submitted(+1)

Difficult. No! Unbearably difficult. The visuals and music are cool, but the gameplay... I was stuck in place for half an hour without even passing the first level. The game is cool, but not for me. I'm too much of a casual.

Developer(+1)

thank you! judging by the reviews, I created a very difficult game, although I did not plan it

Developer

it is indeed incredibly difficult (I couldn't pass the first level either HAHAHAHAHA) I think I'm more of a casual too but I understand how many people like the challenge. thank you for liking the visuals and also music on my behalf hehe!!

Submitted(+1)

couldn't get past the second level


anyways i feel like the 1st layer showing you both but the 2nd only showing you it is kinda eh

the layer that isn't shown should just be a bit transparent (also the spike hitbox feels too big)

Developer(+1)

hello! I wanted to make the layer transparent, but the plugin that did this didn't work on html 5, so I had to remove the transparency.

Developer

that's an interesting feedback we hadn't gotten before, thinking about it that's true!! thank you so much for the unique insight, and yes haha. the game is quite difficult XD

Submitted(+2)

pretty fun game, HARD AF, I COULDNT PASS THE FIRST LEVEL, but I enjoyed my suffering!

Developer

Same brother 😔 same. I've never been able to hear the game ending theme I composed in game HAHAHAAHAHAH.  really glad you liked it!!!

Developer

Well, I guess I play platformers too much, it doesn't seem difficult to me, hahaha.. thank you!

ZERO COOKIE GANG! pretty cool game, really hard, only got past the first level but it was really fun.

Developer

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for checking it out and liking it!!! I unfortunately suffer from platformer skill issue too, you already did way better than me during testing hahaha

Submitted(+2)

Cool and interesting!

Developer

thank you!

Thank you so so much!

The concept is really interesting! Unfortunately, I have the big skill issue and I wasn’t able to get past the first level.

I suggest changing the layer switching to only one button. Its up to you guys though. It would help the player switch faster and make better movements.

Good job on the game!

Developer

thanks!!

Developer(+1)

I agree both with the big skill issue (oof) and with the idea of one button to change the layer. Thank you so much for trying and liking our game!!!

Submitted(+2)

Switching between foreground and background layers is really interesting!
Personally I think the puzzle aspect and the precision platformer aspect clash a bit, so I would have enjoyed the game more if it focused on only one.

Developer(+1)

i think you right, thank you!

Developer(+1)

it surely probably needs to be finely balanced to work well yeah hahaha. thank you for your interest, review and opinion!!!!

Cool concept – I liked the execution. It's already been said that it would be great if the layers were more clearly differentiated. Otherwise, it's a very good game, I liked it.

Developer

thanks for your comment and your game!:D

Developer

So glad to hear you've enjoyed it. we agree with the feedback!

Submitted(+3)

Very cool concept. It took me a while to get into it, but it's a very cool idea. It would be even better if the layers were more clearly differentiated, as I sometimes got confused. But it's a very nice game and very well done :) 

Developer

thx for your comment and your amazing game!
