good game, well mate 10/10

skills641 2014-08-25 03:09

Could of did a better key for switching characters in quicktime events.

superzac 2014-08-25 03:10

Pretty good, I feel like the player mechanic thing has been done before but not in this way, so good on you for that! I really liked it.

jesseleavethisplace 2014-08-25 03:12

i like this game

drakfyre 2014-08-25 03:13

Solid game; it didn't complete the level for me when I got both players to the exit on either level though. Good entry!

hyouko 2014-08-25 03:14

You may want to mention somewhere that you need to collect the appropriate red and blue crystals to proceed - I hit the end of the level and was a bit stumped when nothing happened.

greenyuk 2014-08-25 03:14

Solid effort. There's a lot left to be desired regarding aesthetics, but core mechanics are there. Nice work. :)

allenfreese 2014-08-25 03:19

Like others have mentioned, I recommend giving some more instruction/direction to the player.

ViliX 2014-08-25 03:21

Good idea, but you should polish it a bit more.
I am not a mod, but please be warned, it looks like you've rated 90 games in 60 minutes. Please don't do that, some games require a lot more time to be understood.

kblaney 2014-08-25 03:22

Solid game. I'd play more of this if there were more levels.

frr171 2014-08-25 03:23

Seems like an interesting narrative could be made about the two characters - good job!

stencyltuo 2014-08-25 03:25

Fire boy & water girl definitely. It's one of the better compos I've played. One interesting thing to me was how much work you put into the graphics for the players and how little was put into the level graphics.

boskosokolov 2014-08-25 03:27

Look guys, I know the directions aren`t clear enough ,but I`ve put it all in HOW TO, I know i should have put the instructions in the gameplay but it was 10 minutes before the deadline and doing the LudumDare for the first time I was scared that I wouldn`t make it.

boskosokolov 2014-08-25 03:28

And I din`t have time for the graphics of the level I tried. I`ll keep on updating the game after the ludum dare

hephaestus_rg 2014-08-25 03:29

I wish there were more levels, but given the time constraint, it came out well.

gillenew 2014-08-25 03:34

nice and relaxing music :)

imdigitaljim 2014-08-25 04:02

neat concept! weird at first but i liked it overall!

amour-maternel 2014-08-25 04:14

Did you already rate 111 games? in 2hours? 1 min/game ? How is it possible?

endesga 2014-08-25 04:17

Sweet game :D

mrtedders 2014-08-25 05:01

Nice level design! Only problem was that you didn't have a cohesive art direction. Good work otherwise!

techblogogy 2014-08-25 06:00

Takes a bit to get used to the controls, but overall It's a good game!

cad 2014-08-25 06:56

Not bad man! Unfortunately I`m just biased against platformers, especially with a theme like this. Good job overall.

ceriseghost 2014-08-25 07:16

This was a really fun game! I played through all 3 levels and loved it :)

jsmars 2014-08-25 08:32

Great idea and fun! Could use a bit better graphics tho :)

ahmedmohi 2014-08-25 09:16

Good concept , It will make nice game you polished it .

ossi 2014-08-25 09:18

That was really fun! I wish there more levels!

tannernetwork 2014-08-25 09:35

Very good game.

hazzahazzam 2014-08-25 09:52

Great game but more of connected players than connected worlds.

merlijnvh 2014-08-25 09:54

I like it! It's pretty difficult doing level design for such puzzle games in a short period of time, good job.

elkiwydev 2014-08-25 10:09

Doesn't feel really good.. I don't know why..
The jump isn't that great but at least the puzzle are well made..

doubstract 2014-08-25 11:20

like these puzzles

gwa 2014-08-25 12:21

nice puzzle game

yodamaster 2014-08-25 14:16

Challenging. Reminds me of the old 8-bit classic "The Goonies" on Atari and C-64.

malf 2014-08-25 14:18

Good idea , but I found the controls/jump unusable

perecil 2014-08-25 14:37

Being European, I mostly had to fight controls as we use AZERTY keyboards instead of QWERTY. Air control is also a bit bad (too much air control is as bad as none :D).

The gameplay reminds me of some old paltformer game (but I can't remember the name).

datacr4sh 2014-08-25 15:19

cute, and nice music

sneeuwpopsneeuw 2014-08-25 16:24

The game feels punching because you can not jump whit W, but overal a good game that is just a little bit unpolished

leftright92 2014-08-25 16:31

Nice game, solid core mechanics, even if they've been done before

geeitsomelaldy 2014-08-25 18:35

Platforming felt a bit sticky. I seemed to cling to walls quite easily. Music was a bit repetitive.

The graphics were functional, but the quality of the characters made them really stand out against the backdrop.

linus123xbb 2014-08-25 19:48

This game had a very nice concept, I could see this as a full game with more levels! Thank you for this!

ddfranky 2014-08-25 20:00

I love that little alien! Nice entry.

teoacosta 2014-08-25 21:24

Good execution, but i didnt win when I put both characters on the exit. Still fun though!

capsizedmoose 2014-08-25 22:06

the controlls are a little wierd and the collisions are not really top notch but overall it's okay. the music get's a little anoying too

mechabit 2014-08-25 23:35

Interesting single player coop game lol

accidentalrebel 2014-08-26 01:18

Finished in 39.38. Controls could use some fine tuning (Characters not responding properly). Puzzles are nice and makes you feel smart. Overall it is a fun puzzle game!

tomtheg 2014-08-26 01:39

Nice short puzzle game

marvalgames 2014-08-26 03:22

I had a lot of trouble with the controls?
I fought through it and the game has a feel to it that has promise. This is one game that ran out of time it seems but still worth trying

mramaizng 2014-08-26 03:27

Well put together. Another level would have been nice.

sylarisbest 2014-08-26 03:39

Good concept. One comment though. I feel like the switch character key should have been something else.

piat 2014-08-26 04:43

Good puzzles, if there was time for a little more polish it could be an awesome game.

chuigum 2014-08-26 06:53

Awesome innovation!

liannethy 2014-08-26 08:21

I'm a bit dubious about how legit the comments are on this and the speed you're 'rating' games at. This game isn't particularly polished or unique in its mechanic. The art is mismatched so I assume assets were taken from elsewhere, which means this shouldn't be in the 48 hour section.

ViliX 2014-08-26 09:54

I think I've seen those sprites somewhere..

ViliX 2014-08-26 10:06

Now I remember when I saw them. The sprites an be found here: http://opengameart.org/content/non-isometric-spritesheets

breadstix 2014-08-26 18:23

Fun and challenging. Controls worked well. The music was a good choice and I thought it fit well for what I thought of the mood of the game. Great job!

nerd-burglars 2014-08-27 00:24

Wow! this game is impressive for 48 hr compo. Very original. Two thumbs up!

manou 2014-08-27 13:29

Love the idea and gameplay, definitely needs some gfx and sounds !

georgebroussard 2014-08-28 05:26

Nice effort for 48 hours. I struggled with the physics a little bit but you can easily smooth them out.

akymos 2014-08-28 17:32

Good game

mechanicmoon 2014-08-28 19:58

Good character design and a good job on mapping! Good luck!

ninjascript 2014-08-29 04:50

Challenging!

grayhaze 2014-08-30 17:38

Web version wouldn't load for me, but looks interesting. Good luck with future contests! :)

boskosokolov 2014-08-31 02:40

Fixed the web version... Sorry about that

jukimv1986 2014-08-31 07:42

Nice puzzles! It feels a bit clunky sometimes, like the player gets stuck on the wall, but it works fine and it is quite solid for a 48 hour effort. Great job!

oddly-shaped-pixels 2014-09-09 07:25

Great idea and cool level design! A bit short though but you definitely have something!

snicklodocus 2014-09-10 20:23

Solid mechanics and interesting game design. It's nice when developers take to the time make in-game instructions too. Good job!

apiotrw 2014-09-13 14:51

A bit confusing

jupiter_hadley 2014-09-14 23:18

Interesting game. I included it in part 26 of my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/hvOt_bkuFkM
