Hard Decision

Quite an interesting concept! The unique collision boxes are a fresh twist on the platformer genre. Only problem is, I have no clue how to beat the first level. I was stuck because I couldn't break the boxes protecting the purple orb and couldn't fit into the orange orb. Maybe give the player some instructions on what each individual 'powerup' does to help them out. The graphics look surprisingly good and the collisions are sound despite the proportions of the rock. Nice submission!

@justcamh - Glad you liked it. It's a good idea, then I edit the post and put a caption on each power ups ... There are some right and wrong sequences in switching power ups.

Very original concept, and good artwork! It took a few tries to learn the effects of the power ups, but I think that was part of the fun. I wish there was more sacrifice, though.

@jcroisant - Thanks, I'm glad you liked it ... I added a brief description of the power-ups in the post above ... I really wish I had done a lot more levels, but the time is up

Great idea! Level make you think how to complete it. And that rock physics smiled me :) Good game!

Nice work! Fun puzzle-platformer. It'd be helpful if the powerups communicated their effect visually, maybe with some kind of icon.

@mumboo - Thanks! my idea was to do everything non-sense even! ^^

@nratcliff - Thanks for playing and thanks for the powerups tip, it will be useful in a new version

Solid platformer, but I wished it had more levels, I was enjoying the puzzles. Good job.

@mobiledev @ninjacatz

Thanks guys! I intended to do 5 levels, but at the end of the jam time I could not finish level 3 ... sorry! :/

I like the movement being wonky on the rock, though it leads to some strangeness with what feels like missing inputs. The sound is pretty grating, and as something that happens all the time i wish that is was more varied or had some sort continuous loop rather then playing the same short clip over and over.

The game idea is really good, and the game is fun to play. The level design and game mechanics is overall pretty good, but it could need some polished. Overall a fun little LD game.

Cool concept, it's a shame the rock gets stuck in scenery so often. I liked the puzzles!

@kleinzach - Thanks, I’m glad you liked it. It would be nice to have more sounds of the same type and play them randomly, but for this type of character I did not find many different sounds to include in the game within Jam. However, it's a great tip, thank you.

@jk5000 - Thanks for your feedback, this motivates me in the future to improve the concept and mechanics in a new game

@citsua - Thank you, I'm glad you liked it.
