This game was so cool to play. The puzzles build on top of each other, introduce new mechanics as you keep going, and form a story throughout. The platforming is really smooth and intuitive to pick up along with each room/level. Everyone working on this did great! And a boss fight?! That was such a good surprise for me, I loved the programming on its AI. Congrats on this entry!

Very nice platformer with a unique gameplay twist, great soundtrack and a nice, philosophical story! The labyrinth puzzle was my favourite, the golden string mechanic was cool. The raising "lava" level was too hard IMO, especially in the context of other levels.  Same with the boss fight - it took me a pretty long time to beat it, and in the end I think I just got lucky, I didn't do anything differently from other tries. And I didn't really like the font style, it was pretty hard for me to read it, but that might be just me.

A really strong and unique concept for a puzzle game and some amazing music. I think the difficulty spiked pretty early, with how messy some of the levels became but I think the gameplay is really clever

Wonderful! A surprisingly artful and foreboding experience with clean, communicative visual game design, charming low-res characters, a haunting march of a soundtrack, and a tactful and deep narrative. Very compelling 💛

Minor nitpick: the "light" in the mirror puzzle is quite difficult to see.

Fantastic! Great work!
