I liked the concept you started to create and would love to see more of this developed. The game-play felt similar to "Thomas Was Alone". Good submission!

Nice game! It reminds me of Thomas Was Alone =) Would be great to have better jump response.

Ha nice puzzle! Like the play on 'rulers' - the mix of themes, perhaps a bit of a stretch ;)

A bit of sound would go a long way to add some mood: just jumpy/collision/success sounds help a lot.

I thought rulers would be historical rulers. I think the theme could have been tied in better but I do like your efforts spaceface! I love the art style and the bouncy feel the game has to it. The controls and camera work is well done also. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/260564114?t=00h05m43s

Like the concept but the collision and jumping are a little wonky. I would love to see a polished version of this game. You could create some really cool levels with this concept. Good job.

Great concept regarding a puzzle platformer. I enjoyed figuring out how to get through the different levels, but I did find the controls and collisions a bit wonky. Because of the way that brushing against the sides of platforms causes jumps to halt I had trouble figuring out how high the different rulers could jump, and it took me a while to figure out that they cannot jump the same amount. I really like the idea of switching between the three characters to solve the puzzle. I also did not hear any audio, and i think that your game could have benefited from just some simple sound effects when jumping and switching characters. Fantastic art style, I think that it works perfectly. this is a great first entry to Ludum Dare, I hope that you keep going and making these awesome games.
