Neat concept! The collisions gave me some trouble.

It's great to see the theme so heavily incorporated into the gameplay! The game could be a little punishing though, requiring significant backtracking after a mistake. I think i missed the jump onto the chair about 5 times. It's a testament to the quality of game that I kept at it until I made it though!

Went from sign reading to neat grow-shrink mechanics, to not being able to figure out what to do with the domnios, and then realizing the level was shrinking way too fast. Frustrating. :/ I feel like the puzzle mechanics would stand well on their own; the room shrinking as a time limit makes for dead man walking scenarios.

Really neat! Nice use of theme!

This was such a cool entry, I really enjoyed it. It was quite a surprise when I started and had just enough information to not be confusing but allow me to explore the gameplay. Great job!

The controls are a little frustrating. I lose my key on the first try. Whatever, the game idea is very awesome.

now this is a fun concept! some sound would be nice, especially as an indicator to hurry up as the room is getting too small (which could be slightly slower too)

Very interesting, I found the movement controls very cumbersome, jumping felt rather hard, (trying to get onto the chair frustrated me to no end! kept hitting my head) and I don't think i moved forward correctly towards my crosshair. I got the key at then end but i think it disappeared into the wall while i was trying to unlock the door. Other than that, a really cool concept and a great ode to lewis carroll. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the future!

Great game! I wish there was a sprint or something though.

Really cool mechanic. Super innovative, and works perfectly with the theme. I had a lot of fun making a bridge out of a domino to get to the chair. The game definitely becomes a lot easier as you start to understand the mechanics, though the collisions did cause me some grief. My car and I did end up outside the map a few times, but this is pretty expected given Unity probably doesn't handle things scaling through each other very well.

Overall, a lovely little game. Thanks for making this.

Really cool core mechanic. The level design is great too, I had really fun exoloring and finding secrets lol. Surprisingly the game didn't break too much when I shrinked/grew myself, so good job for that too :)
