How did you incorporate the theme?
i tried to make all of the interactions feel like they have meaning but the meaning is indecipherable because there really isn't a meaning. i just typed shit

Nice little 2 world with characters.  felt pretty good to me.  

Felt very meta, but seemed to lack direction beyond the "we're shapes in a game" gag.  and I'll admit that I didn't make it to the circle.  Would have loved to see a more consistent narrative.  

Nice use of very primitive art!

I agree with the juice comment below. Maybe could add some squishing of the character as it jumps.

The platforming is pretty good. It took me a bit to understand some of nuances, but I’m not great at platforming. There may be an opportunity to add some coyote time if it is missing. Sometimes I’d just walk off instead of jumping at the edge.

The dialogue system was good too. It was cool seeing that come together.

Also, this guy took a bit to get to. it was fun finding out the trick :D image.png

So simple yet so effective! Seems like you used your time very well. The JUICE really carries, I could listen to jumping in this all day lol. Also some of the dialogue got a scoff outta me.
