Really cute and fun entry! I love the pixel art and the puzzles are very charming! I did find it abit confusing how some solutions depend on getting to the keyblocks before they dissapear, but other then that everything felt so satisfying to follow up on!
And the core mechanic is also so fun, it’s the opposite from how you’d expect it to work! With going down being limited while going up can be done as much as you like- leads to a very fun dynamic to solving these puzzles!!
Before this jam, I wasn’t really into puzzle games, but there are so many of them here! Thanks, I had a great time. Great work!
10 WAKE UP ENDING FROM 10! Really nice puzzle game which deserves all 5 star! Good music, interesting levels, nice art! GL!
Excellent game. Great take on the theme and really well designed puzzles!
cute
I love puzzle games, and this one is no different.
A very clever game.
You've also done a good job balancing the levels.
There's absolutely no room for error.
And thinking through something like that is quite a challenge. Good work.
Really loved the concept and the level design, and your take on the theme was similar to mine. Also the player sprite is really adorable. Good job!
record: 12:04.45
The character was so cute, and the last two level was a great twist using the delay time.
Well-made Mechanics and level design!
amazing art
I really love the mechanics and the art style of this game. Although I’m still getting through this game (because I probably suck lol), the game is very fun. I could see this being on Steam in the future if I’m going to be honest.
Very enjoyable game! Puzzle platformers aren't usually my thing but I really like the level design and I don't feel rushed or in a hurry to solve the puzzle. Also the music fits the game really well :D
I had so much fun playing this game, it’s great :)
The 1st playthrough was fun because the puzzles were good, my favorites are the floor 5 and 4, which are good levels to learn the control of the air time with landing. My least favorite is floor 1 because the last part is a timing trick more than a puzzle one. Also it’s easier than floor 3 which is the one I struggle a bit to solve
I like the mechanic of limited landings, I like that you have a room to play and get used to it before the game starts. Also the visuals are good, I really like the little drawings in the first couple of levels, I think they are cute and a good guide to the gameplay
I don’t mind that if you get a box over your head, it locks your movements since you can restart the level. And my favorite part of the game, I really didn’t expect a speedrun of the game haha, it’s very fun to do and I like this because the movement feels great, maybe there is a little issue with pushing the boxes at the last level, making it a little slow but the player movement is great and this would work as a platform game or more than a puzzle one
I like the song of the game, isn’t repetitive and gives a good mood to the game, also the ending is cute. I really had fun with this game, one of my favorites I have played this jam, great game! ^^
Wow, you found the secret trophy! I really appreciate it for playing until the very end.
And yes. I agree the timing trick was a bit too much for the puzzle genre, should have widened timing window or something.
Thank you for your detailed feedback!
Finally a good game with meaningful take on the theme. Excellent work!
God, I love this game. Level 3 was my weakness. I hope to see the full version of your game one day
nice puzzle, the last few levels require speed, precision and good timing, which is okay but bit hard to execute
Really great puzzles, got me thinking without getting frustrating. Fantastic work
Very nice, love the animation and sound when you try to go down without any downs left.
Counting your downward movements to navigate each level makes for such a unique and brain teasing puzzle platformer!
Great idea! and I think the difficulty is well balanced
