Wish it could've been developed a bit more! Pretty interesting and I like the art.

I really liked the simple controls and that shifting between worlds only required stepping on a tile. The preview of which world each tile connected with was good from a communication perspective. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any of the items. I thought that maybe the yellow circles were pointing me toward them, but I guess not. Remember that bigger isn't necessarily better, especially where maps are concerned. Keep up the good work!

The concept is nice, and the world switching mechanism is original. I was a little lost since there is no minimap or indication on how to find the collectibles, but i still managed to find a few ones. Nice game!

It is very innovative, but kinda confusing.

Interesting concept, the game itself was a little trippy sometimes

I like the concept but it was a bit confusing.

I couldn't find a single collectable :( The world is huge!
I like the idea of having to find your way through different "realities". A bit more help for the player and some explanations on some graphics (do the colored circles have a purpose?) would have been cool.

Interesting start to a game, the world transition areas look very neat. Could use a bit more.

There were a few occasions where I've gotten stuck from entering a cluster of portals. The portals were interesting and how they shift from one world to another.

Very original idea! Good job!!

Liked the graphics; but had no idea how to play/what to do. A tutorial/briefing would be nice.

Nicely done! Took me some time to find those items. I also really like the shifting mechanics, though it is currently easy to get stuck on some tiles. Keep up the good work!

Nice I liked how the portal between worlds looked like it was a combination of all the worlds mashed together.

Didn't really know what I was doing so I just spent some time learning about the world. Hunched blue guys kill you, pulsating ground tiles with different color palettes take you to different maps when stepped on, and that the worlds have ends.

I wish there was more to do but it was still fun to go exploring.

Cool idea! I'd also love to see this one developed a bit more.

Pretty crazy. I don't think I found any collectibles, I'm not sure what was going on ...but it was kind of fun to walk around in the trippy worlds anyway.
