Really liked the idea and mechanics of the game. Very cool intro as well as pleasing music with graphics. Game levels were well made. Great puzzle game!

peteywoufes 2020-04-21 17:37

I really like the art style of this one.

maxathon 2020-04-21 17:39

I like this central mechanic (kinda QWOP-y, in that you have limited/unintuitive control over your own movement). Ran into a few out of bounds of the level issues but had a lot of fun!

valisse21 2020-04-21 17:40

Amazing job! The whole idea of Magic Mirror delivery service, the graphics, the Mirror's comments, music, everything. Nice, smooth and a bit challenging. I enjoyed it a lot.

deepkaiju 2020-04-21 17:45

Great cute game but it can get brutal. WHY does a castle have so many holes in the floor?

sushiy 2020-04-21 17:46

Whew! I made it through! :D Cool simple mechanic with a wide range of puzzles presented! Some really tough nuts too!

freso 2020-04-21 17:47

Very nice indeed! Pleasant music and nice game play. I couldn't handle the final boss though. :o

Also I kind of got stuck when I moved too fast into the wall. :) I think it would be nicer if the wall was safe to bump into.

This game is really innovative. I'd definitely play this on my phone if it were an app.

curtis-pelissier 2020-04-21 17:48

Oups I broke the game :grimacing:

I really like the concept. Just a thing, don't make the music reset after deaths and when you move into another level, it's frustrating.

zollmaniac 2020-04-21 17:49

Really enjoyed the mechanics. Especially, when you introduced the light bouncing one. I thought that was a lot of fun.

timo-strating 2020-04-21 17:49

The intro was very nice. And once the game started the music was also very good. The only tip that I would like to give is that the levels 5,6 and 7 gave a strange feeling. In the mario games they always first introduce a new button or thing like level 5 or 6 after that, they give the player a challenge to test if he, she or it really understands the new thing. After a few levels they introduce a new thing like lvl 6. They challenge the player again and after that they start mixing everything together in one last level.

This has to be my favourite game of the jam so far. The controls are just wild enough to be silly while still being controllable once youve worked it out. the dialogue is funny and the pacing of mechanics for the puzzles is just right. also this game feels very speedrunable. would love to see this taken further.

luke-perkin 2020-04-21 17:51

And I thought we had a dastardly control scheme! I can't believe you made so many level in this space of time, unfortunately I couldn't get past the last level. You really explored the design space of the mechanic too. The dialogue was witty. Outstanding work, especially for a first time game jam. *Standing Ovation*

cowa 2020-04-21 17:51

Really cool game! Good job :)

lakrits 2020-04-21 17:52

Wonder if it would have been more fun to control the delivery girl with WASD and the guy with the arrow keys (at the same time). If only arrow keys are pressed the girl would just follow like it is currently but if they walk in the opposite directions they would drop the mirror and break it. Would change the gameplay a lot, could have had it as an alternative mode?

I managed to glitch through the wall when going fast enough. For speedy delivery!

gabriel-pittol 2020-04-21 17:53

Oh pretty nice, a puzzle game. Loved the audio and the idea.

cristi-aby 2020-04-21 17:53

It was a real plasure to play this game! Very funny, inteligent done and good graphics! I played till level 15. Very good job!

robotabc773 2020-04-21 17:53

This is a really neat idea! The one piece of feedback I have is to maybe be a little more forgiving on the hitboxes of the holes and mirror, I occasionally made some very close calls that didn't end up working, and I got stuck on level 17 because everything was too tight.

captainproton42 2020-04-21 17:55

Really really fun game! Two little things: I'd have liked it more if pressing W/S moved your character forwards/backwards not up/down would have made some tight turns easier. Also, the nice music shouldn't reset after each death/win.

svetoslav-godzhev 2020-04-21 17:55

Very interesting mechanic. I found a bug on one of the stages I got stuck in the wall on the exit instead of going to the next level and broke the mirror instantly.

elq 2020-04-21 17:58

Reminded me of the arcade browser puzzle games I used to play. I am surprised how many levels you did. Simple and nice game.

jahwffrey 2020-04-21 18:07

I dont know if you know but there's a cool bit of math involving this exact situation (youtube.com/watch?v=IM-n9c-ARHU)! Fun game, lots of potential and well executed. Good job!

greebs 2020-04-21 18:12

As a puzzle game, this breaks the glass. The difficulty progresses well until the "boss" level, which we were not prepared for. Fairly forgiving fail states and use of light and pressure triggers to create variation in design made it enjoyable. Not a huge fan of the princess design, but definitely get the humor in it. The Mirror delivering lines to the delivery meeps was a great choice! The audio feedback for damage was enough to get the point across to be more careful during play.

An option that I would have liked to have was separate controls of the two characters so that they could be controlled simultaneously for a two player experience, but that would have created its own set of problems... Good job!

joonamo 2020-04-21 18:13

Nice take on the classic math problem of sofa moving. I enjoyed how smoothly the characters moved, but the holes were a real menace! In the end, I was able to finish in less than 14 minutes. :hole::sparkles:

oldknivestale 2020-04-21 18:19

Funny how similar this is to our game when the thing that's similar has nothing to do with the theme. Great job!

lootgrounds 2020-04-21 18:28

Nice entry. Like puzzles. But the hole's colliders could be quite smaller:)

ghostmaple 2020-04-21 18:46

Neat concept and good execution :thumbsup: Music was good and the character art was a nice addition. Had fun through most of the game, except the last level. (Spent around 15 minutes trying to get through just that final challenge. The small holes leading to the bottom right switch were especially frustrating.) All together a pretty good game. You really nailed that moving day feel of "You move there while I move here. No wait, stop pulling!" Nice work!

karreg 2020-04-21 18:53

Very nice entry ! The light mechanics surprised me ! Your game is generous and works fine. The music is quite good too. It's a shame that it stops and restart from the begin between each level.

myro973 2020-04-21 19:21

Hi Everybody, Dev here !

Thank you all for your amazing feedback, we're happy you liked our game ! We really enjoyed the jam even though it was a lot of work.

We're aware of the many little flaws in the game like janky physics, repeating music etc... We tried to fix them in the last couple of hours of the jam but we didn't have time to tackle them all. Our goal was to make fun silly game and in that I believe we succeeded !

I personnally would love to continue developping this game, I believe it has a lot potential either as a mobile game or as a couch coop game. We'll keep you updated before this summer, you can follow us either on LD or itch to have updates...

Cheers !

Neat mechanics. The movement works as expected and was satisfying.

Any criticism I have has already been said.

zerohbeat 2020-04-21 23:24

I nearly jumped the first time I broke a glass. The boss level killed me. Really enjoyed the game. Can't believe that there are so many levels! It was a lot of fun to play. Thank you very much for the experience.

fat-cat 2020-04-22 10:21

I really liked this entry, the mechanic was fun enough to keep me playing through the whole game. I beat it in 11 mins 30 seconds ^^

alpharock6 2020-04-22 17:37

Really nice concept! Pretty intuitive to pick up after a few well arranged intro levels, enjoyed it a lot :)

ayced 2020-04-22 17:45

Beat it in just under 10 minutes, wish there were more light puzzles those were cool

duke 2020-04-22 17:49

Cool little puzzle game. Liked the core mechanics and kept me hooked for a while. The level variation was nice and you even introduced new game play mechanics later on!

Here some feedback: * Don't reset the music loop upon death etc. It's really nerve wrecking :D

conor-galvin 2020-04-22 17:52

Great idea! Loved the art and style of the game and felt that the idea was pretty fresh and unique! I do wish there was some more variety in the levels though. Overall though, really well done!

luddegodofpain 2020-04-22 17:53

a pearl of a game although i didnt make it past 18, thats only because i genuinely dont like puzzle games. that said, this game was really good at guiding, and tricking me.

nachodlv 2020-04-22 17:54

I like the mechanics and enjoyed solving the puzzles. The sound got a little bit repetitive. A lot of content for a Game Jam! Good Job!

charliegray 2020-04-22 18:58

Cool Puzzle game. The artstyle is really cool. And you have quite a few levels for a jam game. I did encouter one or two bugs but still this game is impressive.

grtodaro 2020-04-22 19:32

I love this game. The logic is very challenging. I haven't any suggestion because for me it is great!

alphazeba 2020-04-23 02:28

I love the light bouncing system!

bulle 2020-04-23 12:07

Great game! Impressive that you managed to create that many different levels with different mechanics that are actually challenging but yet possible. The graphics are great and it really gives a neat atmosphere.

mateusboga 2020-04-23 23:20

Such a cool and interesting game! I'd love to see a mobile version of this :) Also I think I should mention that I love the art! I think I found a bug where the dialogue seems to be off by one room: Screenshot_68.png Nice entry!

g-a-gamestudio 2020-04-25 03:49

This game is a great idea and it was very fun.

kaeveris 2020-04-25 09:46

I loved the graphics a lot, so beautiful! The music was very cool but it would be better if it played on a loop instead of reseting when dying. I love the mood and humor of the game! The mechanics were really great, being easy at first and getting progressively harder. However I couldn't get past level 10 where you need to open each door to get light to the crystal.

vesper 2020-04-27 01:05

Amazed by how many levels you guys managed to pull off within the allotted time, everything felt so well put together. Very enjoyable!

gameovermexico 2020-05-10 14:28

I got here but it's interesting simple and nice good job! espejo.jpg

An important advantage of choosing a professional [dispatching company for the owner operator](https://fleet.care/) is that it may save you time by handling your dispatching requirements. You can concentrate on driving and obtaining freight if someone else takes care of the dispatching for you. There are several advantages to employing a dispatching firm and how they can help your business grow, and this helps you to get more done in less time!
