Wow, had a lot of fun with this one and I instantly liked the style and sounds of it, especially the music. Feels quite polished. Didn't like the keyboard layout (I am used to use space to jump, not up) and I wish there was a more dynamic way of rotating the world. Other than that - great game!

Great game! Awesome visuals. What started as quite simple platformer turned out to have pretty clever mechanics.

mtrc 2014-08-26 14:47

Really lovely. Gorgeous presentation, nice simple mechanic.

hundredhundred 2014-08-26 14:48

Loving the visual effects, interesting idea of rotating and moving blocks.

holgk 2014-08-26 14:49

Nice game!

everystone 2014-08-26 14:49

Very impressive! Love the graphics, and great gameplay. Only negative I can say is the way you rotate the world becomes a bit repetitive. Good job!

satyre 2014-08-26 14:51

I really love the graphics and the music. Changing the platforms is challenging. Great job!

pixelmind 2014-08-26 14:52

Loved this. Very clever little platformer. Nice graphics and audio too.

cultofmonkey 2014-08-26 14:53

Superb! Love the concept, art, music, everything :)

arzi 2014-08-26 14:54

Wow, really good. The art and sound fit the mood perfectly, and the gameplay ha nice twists.

mechanicmoon 2014-08-26 14:55

the game looks really god, I like the ambience of the game

dramentiaras 2014-08-26 14:55

Beautiful!

doctor-broccoli 2014-08-26 14:56

Beautiful little game. I guess my main criticism would be that the music kind of got on my nerves after a while.

glaydur 2014-08-26 14:57

Wow this was a really enjoyable game. I loved the mechanics, I love the the incorporation of the theme. The only two irks that I had with this game was the controls(I wish you had rebindable keys) and the music. Music was good but I didn't like hearing it over and over again for a few levels. Otherwise it's feels like a good and polished game.

mach60kas 2014-08-26 15:38

Very nice game, I loved the amount of polish on the graphics and the great mechanics! Keep up the good work. :)

leafarz 2014-08-27 13:53

cool idea you got here! and the visuals were really awesome and also the puzzles. good job! :D

romko_pidstryhach 2014-08-27 15:51

This game feels great. Awesome visual effects. You might consider switching to "hold space, use arrows to rotate/shift, release space" controls rather than toggling. That would feel more genuine and will require less interaction from player. Anyway, cool game

pixlwalkr 2014-08-27 17:22

Cool gameplay, art and mechanics. overall its a great game. I'll give you lots of stars :)

metalchouchen 2014-08-27 23:09

Awesome! Graphics and mechanics are really goods. May be control could be improve. But It's a very great work! Congrats!

simplesmiler 2014-08-28 13:54

Shiny and awesome!

almax27 2014-08-29 21:38

Graphics were fantastic, music got a little repetitive but sound effects were solid, only gripe with controls was not being able to press attack and jump at the same time. <3 the attack animation!

tanser 2014-08-29 21:38

Amazing! Well done, i like it! The collision can bug out when rotating some times. All in all astonishing! :)

villhest 2014-08-29 22:04

OMG! Best game so far!

lkr 2014-08-29 22:11

Wow, that was absolutely amazing. Played through all 15 levels, and enjoyed them all thoroughly!

Loved the gorgeous pixel art and effects, and the gameplay was fresh and addictive.

More levels please? :)

fil00dl 2014-08-30 12:53

interesting concept, very nice graphics (especially fx)

bogdanmaier49 2014-08-30 13:11

Amazing Game! Graphics are awesome. you got all stars from me!

vidd 2014-08-30 13:23

Very polished. Quite an achievement for a game jam. Great job!

stals 2014-08-30 14:29

Screenshake!!! Awesome game but gets hard quickly.

lars-faust 2014-08-30 14:34

Really good, with an impressive length for a LD-game.
Love the particles. I wouldve liked the attack to not stop all movement and dropping off edges to give you bit less velocity, but apart from that it controlled fine. Good one!

suoraviiva 2014-08-30 14:40

Awesome game! Really great atmosphere, the music is very good, great particle effects and very snappy controller feeling. The idea is innovative, nice puzzle element to moving and rotating the platforms. I like it very much!

leafthief 2014-08-30 15:14

This was just beautiful. Artful execution of all aspects and fun gameplay.

nonentheless 2014-08-30 16:42

Amazing idea and execution. Controls where a little tiresome for me, but I think on gamepad it would work pretty well. Great entry :)

lokarunith 2014-08-30 17:44

Impressive game, the mechanics are very original and super fun.

klianc09 2014-08-30 18:01

Awesome particle effects, this game looks great.
Music was also good although a bit repetitive.
My biggest problem were the controls, they felt really counter-intuitive. For rearranging platforms the mouse would have been really helpful.

It seems like it's inspired by 'continuity'?

gfm 2014-08-30 18:58

Great graphics!!

I would have preferred if it was possible to use a game pad, but it was a nice game, nonetheless. :)

liquidminduk 2014-08-31 03:12

great polish on your entry
Some great platforming sections and pretty deep gameplay.
Well done!

nesis 2014-08-31 07:07

Lovely game with good incremental challenges. Visually very impressive :) Nice music, too.

georgebroussard 2014-08-31 09:17

Fantastic entry. Great idea. Controls took a little to get used to. Nice art, music and implementation.

runvs 2014-08-31 09:59

Awesome plattformer! rotating and translating the levels is a nice idea though i do not quite get the connected worlds theme. Nevertheless it is a nice game with just sweet audio and graphics! Especially the particle Effects are very well made!

kayelgee 2014-08-31 19:07

Great game. Would've been nice to change the controls but I love this game anyways. I would buy it on the spot.

andrewjamesadams 2014-09-05 13:25

My highest was level 8. Nice game.

snicklodocus 2014-09-05 22:22

Great art and mood! Controls were a little annoying for me (used to jumping with space). It was also a bit difficult to jump and attack. Great game though!

tomvert 2014-09-07 13:04

Amazing concept, love the ideas and all the emerging gameplay it can produce. You might want to rework the control scheme, also some levels feels weird, like I have to ask myself: "what does this level wants me to do ?" Solutions should feel more natural. I'm thinking about the leve with "unwrapped cube shape" and it consist only 3 similar portions of floating blocks. Anyway, such an innovative concept and flawless execution, amazing job :D

mcapraro 2014-09-07 22:41

at first i wasnt that impressed with just a plain old platformer. the graphics and effects are nice though. but with the rotation and platform moving mechanic added, it becomes something really unique. well done!

nicepenguins 2014-09-09 14:03

Well done, love the universe ! The graphics are cool, the music too (maybe a little bit repetitive ). Good job for the diversity of situations (a few were a little bit frustrating x) ). The controls of the character needs to be more precise in my view. The feedback of the sword is very cool !

merlijnvh 2014-09-12 20:28

Solid entry, great work! Love the style, music and visuals.

romandtom 2014-09-13 18:47

Great game!
Everything is 5/5!
was challenging and fun :)
