I love the graphics and the atmosphere of this game, its dark and gloomy without being creepy thanks to the music. I just had a few issues, one, when it launched the game wouldn't let me turn the game resolution up past 640 x 480, it would still let me full screen but it would be super blurry. And 2, i wasn't sure what the G or control buttons where supposed to do, when I pressed them it didn't seem like anything happened.
I like the light-kind of style you use on this game. looks totally fits and catchy. but the mechanic is so good and the way to playing with light on a contrast environment really gives an atmosphere.

Thanks for the comments! Really appreciate the feedback! @greenboxgames Sorry to hear about the issue! No clue what caused it, it seems to work fine for us. Also yeah we could be more clear with the buttons, it allows you to heal with the orb! In any case thank you again for the kind words! We really appreciate it!

Absolutely beautiful game. Loved the audio. The 2 character mechanic is REALLY cool, but it made me feel old because I couldn't steer the 2 characters at the same time very well haha :)
Good job!
This game is just beautiful. Simply beautiful. Wish it had some sort of single player option though.

@itsduckyyyy Thanks for the feedback! Honestly I feel the same, single player would be fun! But would've taken too long to implement. Maybe sometime later?
This was so much fun! It looks and sounds great too. my friend and I played and we got stuck on the part with the big wall and the button on the raised platform.

@cody-foster Glad you enjoyed! I get the getting stuck, it's not fully clear how to solve, however the key is in the ability to push the other player with your attack! Thanks so much for the feedback!
nice game ,It is very suitable for two people to play together. Sometimes, one person can't tell which one is controlled by which hand.

@zhaojun8443 Thanks for the feedback! It can get a bit confusing yes, but what can you do lol, future fixes galore!
Well done! Like it. Tried to play it alone, which is kind of funny, but difficult.
What I find strange is, that the Left Side (so WSAD controller) is for the bottom player and Arrow-Controls are for the top player. You normally read from left to right and top to bottom, so I'd expect the WSAD controllers for the top player.
The visuals are really cute, like the effects and if you get hit, that the light of the player slowly goes out. Like the idea of the puzzles!
Beautiful aesthetic. Makes me wish I had a friend... or that you had single player mode! I found controlling both of them to be beyond my skills.
Love the SFX as well.
Not a detraction, but if you're building out of Unity, you might as well do WebGL and avoid the installation process.

@manuel-rauber Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it! The thing you say about the controls is really interesting, didn't even think of that, but I totally agree! That would make more intuitive sense!

@trevor-shoe Thanks for the feedback, single player would be great and so would having a friend lol.
Super fun! Enjoyed the puzzle design, would love to play a longer version.

@team-kelly Thank you for the kind words! A longer version would be great, maybe in the future who knows.
Well played, i played it on my own and it was fun as well
Beautiful game. The glow effects are breathtaking
Looks beautiful and plays really nice!
Cool! great effects only then I realized that it was to move the two.

Love the art and sounds. Love it.
Funny little game, smooth and cute ! But we had some problems on browser because the Ctrl button for player 2 keeps doing shortcuts like... closing the tab :/ Great job anyway !

Wow, this is gorgeous! I love the concept, it's really well done and looks/feels polished. It was a bit challenging to play single player though :sweat_smile:
Amazing art direction, love the colors, the lighting and the atmosphere. Same with the sounds. Very nice mood. I tried playing along and it wasn't very easy :joy: but it was still fun. I feel like it doesn't fully cover 'health as currency' as a theme but I still enjoyed it. Great job!

Nice atmosphere. I like puzzle game coop. Sound and graphics are cool and the game play too ! It's probably a type of game I would play. But I don't understand the relation with the theme.
The graphics and music/sounds were great! I felt bad whenever I got hit - my poor Shroom! :( But otherwise good stuff. A single player version would be very fun (and maybe challenging too!)

the game is awesome! :hearts: would be nice if its longer! #shroomlove :laughing: i love the feeling when the map is a little bit dancing like a ship on the sea. :smile: The bloom is perfect. i have nothing bad to say!
Great all rounder here with a lovely mood. Solid entry.

Great game.
The level of game production is obviously much higher than me.
It's a bit of a shame that I'm the only one who can't evaluate level design.
Superb! I love the glowing feel and ambiance. Well done!
Great atmosphere. I loved the co op mechanic and even found it kind of managable as single player(although its definitely designed for 2)
It's not often you see an LD game with such nice lighting! Nice and moody.
Pretty cool game I just think there should be more abilities for the characters.
Loved the art and audio. It was a little difficult to play since I was playing it alone. I don't see the connection to the theme, but thats not a big deal.
Good job!
Great atmosphere, you've got a lot out of your lighting, it really makes the look of the game.
Very good entry!
favorite game!
Awesome intro music, i love the way piano always enhances and brings the feeling of dripping water, the ambience is amazing, you bring the user perfectly to inside the wet, cold and empty cave, the reverberation also adds depth and volumetry.
There's a lack of enemy presence because they do not have any sfx, only the 2 protagonists.
Choosing the old school guitar for the soundtrack remember of my childhood playing Diablo and "Estas Tonne" amazing guitar solos.
The lighting could get even more dramatic if you added shadows to It and maybe some floating emissive particles like "magical floating spores".

@ivan-garcia-filho Thank you very much for your feedback. It will definitely help us. And about the lack of enemy presence you're right, they need some SFXs. I'll fix that.
