Love the unique ability of the different frequencies on this platformer, great gameplay and fun to compete for faster times.

Interesting mechanic, and I think you did some cool things with it each level! I just wish the platforms wouldn't get out of sync, I had to wait a bunch on the last level for them to line up again because I took too long. I also really like the decor and background art and the shader effect for platforms disappearing

The blue platforms were definitely hard to balance and on the last level I had spent most of my time making the red path difficult but possible so I was scrambling to finish the blue side before the deadline. I appreciate you playing the game all the way through! I hope you had fun!

I really liked this one! Switching between frequencies to reveal different platforms and hazards makes the platforming much more interesting, especially when you have to switch in the middle of a jump. The mechanic fits the limitation really well. A stronger cue when changing frequency could make it even smoother.

Fun game!

I loved the mechanic of switching frequencies and can think of so many interesting ways it could be expanded upon. It was so satisfying to learn the levels and optimizing when to switch frequencies. The rating system made me keep going back for a better time! Great job!

Really fun !

I was a little bit frustrated that there was no checkpoints, but I really like the concept with the frequencies

I never really thought of checkpoints since the levels were timed, but level 5 could definitely use a checkpoint or two. Thank you for the feedback!

That was fun! Quite hard at the end. Wish the platforms were there even at a different frequency, just like the spikes. Cool art, music and rating system. Good job!

Thank you for playing it all the way through! This was my first game jam so it means a lot to see someone play more than a level or two.
