WOW! Awesome job! It was a little too hard for me though, but then again, that's not saying much. :)

The block shuffling effect is really cool!

Visually very nice. A simple platformer that works pretty well. The option to mute the music might have been nice since it just repeats. Also that snowman enemy is brutal. Took a lot of attempts to get around him.

The audio is really cool and I love the block animations that build/destroy the level. My only complaint is that the gravity is way too slow; feels like the character is floating

The platforming feels a little slow, but other than that, amazing!
I really love the block shifting effect.

In my defense... the game is on the guy mind! Gravity works on another way there! :P

just kidding.. you guys are right.. But now I think I should have made variable gravity along the levels :(

Really great job with the animations!

I love the way the platform are build between level! Great job!

Wonderful music and really cool level design in a few areas.

Floaty controls make landing my jumps difficult.

The worst part about the game is that the 3D platforms make it really hard to tell where youre going to land, or if there is a gap, depending on the angle. I would recommend just going full 2d with it or have a camera that moves with the player to help show the platforms.

Very good job, the polish was good. A little unsettling and counter intuitive with the lack of boundaries, but still responsive enough to fluidly play, once I got used to it.

awesome!! I love it!

Great game, I love the transforming worlds and the overall presentation. Everything is super smooth from the menus to the animations of the characters and environments. Only thing that I had issues with was the floaty controls, but that's fine for a gamejam game.

This game was nice. I loved how you put a perspective to all the blocks. Also all the blocks moving like that was super cool.

I love the reusing of the blocks animation, looks really nice.
The music is a bit repetitive though, but that's understandable.
The controls felt slightly sluggish though, and the gravity was a bit low.

Nice. Really love the transition effects, not so keen on the other spritework though. Gameplay is rather plain and balnt, but it works.

tomvert 2014-12-10 12:32

Love the level transition !

aidinviper 2014-12-10 15:33

nice job. ty for you game.

Cool rearranging effect. Nice game! I enjoyed it!

It's a cool concept to use the same blocks to construct each level. The platforming controls are a bit floaty. Since the gameplay is controlled entirely with the keyboard, it would be nice to be able to navigate the Menu/Retry screen with the keyboard too, instead of having to switch to the mouse. Nice work!

victorafael 2014-12-11 11:48

yeah! I only saw the need of keyboard menu interaction when I saw other people playing... but was after the deadline so I couldn't change! :(

elendow 2014-12-11 20:08

Love the building effect, seriously.

The design of the stages is pretty cool also, congratulations!

frenchie 2014-12-12 05:23

Very nice! The block movement was really really cool. I also liked the boss fight at the end. But man, screw that snowman! A recommendation for the future in a game where you die a lot: don't make the user have to leave the keyboard and go to the mouse to restart. Just play the death animation and restart it for him! Or let them press "R" or something to restart. Oh and I want to thank your attention to detail for allowing me to kill a mage at the end after the first jump and only fight the boss twice instead of thrice! Good job!

Nice idea with blocks utilisation :)

01101101 2014-12-14 16:22

Nice work! Controls are good even if the jump is on the floaty side ^^ The angled platforms are original.
I find the graphic combination of pixel art and "realistic" 3D a bit weird though.

nicealexanderas 2014-12-23 17:48

Solid game, i find the controls kind of slow but its okey :3 Great work :D

gana0 2014-12-23 17:55

Neat visuals. I liked the combination of 3D blocks and 2D characters, although sometimes the blocks became a little confusing as to where you could land on them. Since the blocks are angled toward the outside, it was a little hard to tell where the end of the block was based on my 2D character. The jump and movement felt a little slow to me. The block rearranging animations were cool and the sprites were great as well. The music had nice atmosphere as well. Overall, a very nice platformer with cool 3D and 2D effects. I felt that the physics could have been more responsive or faster.
