Really neat little game! Enjoyed it a lot, once I figured out how to play it. On that note, I think you could include some more instructions as to how the game plays control-wise in the description or gradually reveal it through steps in the game itself to make it more apparent. Managed to make it to the end once I figured it out, but I was very close to just closing the game before I figured out how to play it. I'm glad I didn't, though! Cool game! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for sticking with it!
There is an interactive tutorial in the code, unfortunately time prevented that making it into the game, The solution we went with has a flaw, if you don't swap characters, you don't see the climbing instructions and you can complete the first level without climbing.
We have some plans to continue work on this game, we have some hurdles to over come but the next version will include the full tutorial experiance :)

you’re not the only one, you have to swap blobs and climb, a bunch of people missed the swapping / climbing instructions. I can’t beat that level personally but people have done it.
We are going to continue working on this so your feedback is very helpful!
Thanks for playing!

Thank you! Glad you had fun. The extended rope stretch was not intentional, but worked out well in the project aside from start of lvl 3 that had its issues. Appreciate your comment!

haha! Did he ever come back? For sure there are bugs if you get too violent with the inputs!
Thanks for playing!
for sure there are some oddities with the movement, we spent a lot of time trying different combinations and breaking the whole game, trying to add physics in a platform game was perhaps a tad optimistic.
We are working hard in the background on a fair feeling control system, but we want to maintain the fun feeling.
thanks for playing

I don't think a final score crossed our minds! You have got to be the blobbing champion, thats got to be the first 100% run!
Thanks for playing.

That was all Dan, he showed off another project he was working on and we loved it so ran with it!
Thanks for playing <3
Hi thanks for playing and giving feedback! Appreciate the comments on the art style, like my friend said I pulled it from another project I was working on months ago and forgot about. Never heard of the game you described though but I can see a resemblance! There will be a patch coming too the game today that will address the issues with some of the pulling mechanics for the secondary blob so hopefully no more getting stuck on ledges!
The tutorial level guy dropped the ball here, I am throwing him under the bus because he is me!
You can switch characters with shift, the tutorial covers it... but... the climbing mechanic instructions only show while you are Red, and I think most people are running out of the level as Blue, who can dominate level 1 and 2! We have learnt we need to get our mates to playtest :D
I think we are going to push a small update to explain it better. Thanks for playing it

Thank you so much for playing and your generous feedback! We loved making the game and we just ran out of time for some extra polish/more levels etc. Glad you had fun!

Yeah we had a ton of fun making this! Thanks for playing. A co-op feature would be amazing and it's something we had thought about whilst making it for the jam.
