Enjoyed the game, though I found the climbing mechanic to be a hit or miss at certain parts of the stage. In terms of the color, I think the contrast is a bit too high and the brightness combined with the black tab background with the flickering started causing some eye strain

Thanks for playing! Maybe it helps to know you can hold space when jumping?
Interesting mechanics that could probably be expanded for more puzzle/levels.
Also had issue with "climbing/jumping" but I'm really not a good customer for platform games so could be me.
In any case, good one.

I had fun, but got stuck pretty quickly because I couldn't jump across a wide gap. Looked promising though, with similar ideas to Thomas Was Alone but with a twist. Good work. :)

Thank you for the feedback. I did some minor bugfixing so people wont get stuck anymore.
Also made platform specific executables. Can't test them so hope they work.
Got stuck in a wall, 10/10 :D
In all seriousness, nice game, it works, but one thing: Your jump timer is a tad short, you're able to jump infinitely with circle

Pretty fun. Not sure if it was a bug or not, but holding down space while holding left / right let me basically jump forever. It was useful and I was able to get through the screens pretty quickly. Color palette was nice but I think you could have used more shapeshifting, and maybe some sort of animation? Overall, I liked the ending.

I would have rated you well for graphics lol, too bad I can't.
I haven't understood really well the enter power but I feel satisfied with the 3 forms, it's simple, effective and neat.
The black tips bar is wonderful !!!!
There is enough content provided imo but if you have it takes to make more levels, I'm sure you may release it on Steam.

There's a little jank and I was able to worm my way through a wall after getting stuck, but that said there was a little story there that I found compelling and the shape powers was pretty neat! Nice job!
Reached the end in the web version!
It was quite fun. I find the graphics really enjoyable.
The story inside the game is also a good point.
I became all powerful! And then I was murdered... I enjoyed it. Cool story and gameplay.

I love the fact that the game has a story - that I can meet Jeff and Rinn, not only some rectangles. Good job :)
Mechanics should be more polished though. Not all moves are intuitive.
