Thank you so much! We are actually very happy about the outcome since this is our very first game. After a few life stuff holding me and my wife back gets resolved, we plan to make this into a full fledged game. My wife shouted loudly "100 levels!" so I have my work cut out for me... Anyways stay tuned ;)
Very nicely done actiony-puzzle platformer! It brought flashbacks of VVVVVV, combined with the old 8-bit games I used to play.
I adored the retro graphics and chiptune music. Very well done!

Beaker BeastiesThis was super fun and the music was great. I loved the level design it took me a couple of hits to work out you could dodge which was really nice. 5/5

The Serenity TrailI think the game had a fun mechanic and cool design! Some nice "easy puzzles" as well, I liked the retro feeling it gave.
Some feedback would be the Fuel gauge and HP is very hard to find, since they kind of melt in with the platforms. So maybe have like a darker background underneath them or something.
Also I think a tutorial level would be great for this kind of game, since I was wondering for a second why isn't the switching working, but I was standing on the red blocks, which I read afterwards from the description that it's not working there!
Great game though for a weeks work! :)

The Struggles WithinThank you! It would be easy for me to make a tutorial and implement all the changes you mentioned. Reason I'm not doing them right away is that I'm waiting for the rating period to be over so I can work more on the game, it is going to be a full feature release :)
Retro feeling was what we wanted to go for so hearing that makes us really happy, especially my wife who did all the sprite art.
Again, thank you for your precious feedback and lovely comment!
Nice puzzles. I need to sacrifice some HP to solve the last one. Can it be done with full HP?

Chilling Through LifeHey, nice :D you also drew a pixel art portal for this jam! I think we might have even used the same reference art. Great job! This was fun to play and had a nice retro feel.

Portal PanicI'm so glad you liked it! Yeah I was clueless mostly of how to draw specific things in the start because of the theme. I have been busy with pixel art for a month now but it's so enjoyable and I'm learning a lot! I'm glad there was that portal reference material out there, every start is hard I suppose 😅 Thank you very much, we are so happy with your praise!
The game is nostalgic. You took me back to my childhood. Thank you for that!
