This game is incredible! I had so much fun playing it and solving the puzzles which I probably cheesed most of them but that doesn't matter, also the art style was so fun and vibrant, you guys did a great job!

Submitted

Really Cool Game! I think this has a lot of potential if you keep working on it. Got stuck on level 4 but It's really fun! I hope you make it to the top 100!

Submitted

I had some difficulty with this. But this is really polished. The transitions between scenes look fantastic. The scrolling background. Sound effects. Everything just feels really good. Overall, enjoyed this.

Submitted

Love the countdown mechanics on the blocks, and the ability to pick up multiple blocks sparks many possibilities for creative puzzles. Well done! And I love how the ability to jump without a block attached matters at level 8 haha.

Submitted

Really well designed puzzles. I absolutely love the “onward” voice over

Submitted

oh and i used drop to solve lv 2, not so intended lmao. But that just proves how well your game is executed

Definitely on the more creative side of the whole jam! Loved the "Onward!!!"

Developer

That's probaly my favourite part haha, our lead programmer suggested to our sound guy to record a voiceline for the onward and it fit perfectly with the vibe we were going for!

This is probably one of the MOST creative puzzle platformer mechanic I've ever seen. I feel this has the potential to turn into a fully fleshed out game, great work!

Developer

I definitely see a lot of potential for a full game! thank you for playing

Very cute platformer. It may be the post-jam exhaustion but I could not get past level 2 hahaha. I really like the concept though, very creative with a touch of humour.

trust me the post jam exhaustion is hitting me too lmao thank you for playing!

So cute! The pixel art is so fun and the music is groovy~ Had to use the solutions a couple times only because I'm a bad at platforming puzzles T^T

Developer

Thank you! some of the puzzles might have been more unintuitive than we intended!

Submitted

You sent the game to my stream but I'm guessing I didn't get to it before you had to go, quite similar idea to my game, entirely different execution, so that was interesting, LOVE barry, art is very cute. Got stuck at level 10, I think I missed the concept I was supposed to learn at level 9 :sweat_smile:

Submitted

Very cool. Fun and super polished for a game jam game!

Submitted

This is my fav game I've played so far! :) 

Submitted

Very cute artstyle and creative use of the theme!

What a neat puzzle idea! Very intuitive but still challenging enough. Great art and music too! 

Submitted

at level 3 I understood it's a genius idea and mechanic! it was a bit hard to control (and for my brain) but it was uniqe and fun!

Submitted

i like the art

Submitted

good concept. It would be nice if a hint appeared when you completed a level.

Submitted

Loved the game, embarrassed myself on stream getting stuck on level two. Good work!

Submitted

Nice idea! The level design needs a bit of work to help tutorialize concepts better, but the vibe is great. :)

Submitted

this is such a cool concept and the audio is sooo good!!! (shame I don't have the coordination to beat it!!
