- Love the art.
- Could have used some animations!
- Got stuck in an impossible situation with like 6 traps ahead of me.

But the ambience and gameplay is quite soothing.

The art is nice and the music is chill but the game-play seems to screw you with it generating too many holes for a triple jump. Also I don't see the 'shapeshift' theme in this.

I am convinced it must be possible to time a 4 hole jump and succeed but after many attempts I couldn't land it! I'll have to try again later. Really enjoyed the soothing music and love the artsy night mode graphics. Well done!

I like the art style. It gets difficult pretty quickly trying to jump between the holes when they're a lot of them strung together. Fun game, nicely done.

George shape shifts into a butterfly at night. It is very possible to land between holes and quickly jump to get past the long lines of obstacles.

The art and music were great. I think my only problem was it wasn't obvious where the hit boxes on George and the holes were.

I really enjoyed the graphics, they all had this awesome hand drawn style. Music was catchy, but would be nice if it was a little longer. I didn't get into too much gameplay because I could never figure out how to jump high enough.

Love the art style and music, but the game seems impossible to win.

I love the hand drawn art style of this. I would love to see this with animations.

Nice and simple little game.. :)

The music was relaxing and a nice change from the scratchy sounds most LD games end up with. The graphics were also pretty. Unfortunately I couldn't get much further than three or four holes as I always ended up being faced with more than I could pass with a triple jump. I also never saw night, which I assume starts when you get past the holes, and didn't really see any hint of the theme. Could be fun with a bit more work on balance. Good job! :)

Same as mukult, got stuck on a six in a row of the molehill things. Like the music and the graphics.

It's a simple game, but it looks & sounds alright :) Well done!

Love the music and the artwork. Some sprite animation would have been great.

At night, the butterfly zips across the screen really quickly. I can't position it anywhere, it just zooms to the other side no matter how briefly I press the button. Is that a bug?

Nice relaxing game - until the long line of obstacles :)
