It took me a bit to understand how it worked. But when I got it, it was a lot of fun. The graphics are great. The music is very good. And the subject is perfect.

Very good work! It has been great.

I love graphics and it is very entertaining :D

Wow! I LOVE the theme, super original. I think it is very polished. Everything about this is great. Congratulations!

Great game, guys. The escheresque style fits the jam's theme perfectly. I really love the infinite loop - pool animation!

The art style , happy theme music and characteristic sound effects create a very lively atmosphere. All the little elements of the game invite you to experiment and fool around. And the game rewards you for that. I had fun splashing around! :)

Keep it up!

Awesome game! Realy like the twist on the theme and the jodel sounds :D

I loved it!

The story was very fun and motivating, the visuals were great and the effects, aswell. Especially the "splash" felt awesome! And interacting with the yodel guys was just the cherry on the cake.

Thanks for the great experience and nice to hear from you, good to see you're still "in the loop" :smile:

I love this game! It's so cute and fun, the graphics are lovely! And it fits the theme beautifully. I felt sorry for the poor dude, ahah.

Fantastic idea! Poor baby :smiley:

Really loved the graphics and the game overall. Good work!

Great word game haha, good job

Haha, i love the loop <-> pool. A bit short and took awhile to unterstand but definitely has potential!

interstateeight 2020-10-06 19:24

Very enjoyable! Great execution in such a short time, would love to see it taken further!

Great art, sound and gameplay. I like the looping level design and characters. Really cool game that doesn't outstay its welcome. Good job everyone.

The pool is so cool and relaxing) The art and sound are amazing! Love this round guy

The music was catchy, I L O V E the spinning logo loop <-> pool, and the game was pretty fun to be honest. I enjoyed it, great entry!

big fan of the yodeling haha, nice work! 🏊

Very clever usage of the theme. I really love the work of Escher. Seeing his waterfall illusion put into a game is really cool. The controls felt a bit wonky to me, but that's probably mostly because I'm not really a big fan of dragging/swiping gestures with a mouse in general. I can see this working very nicely as a fun little mobile game if you add more levels.

Cool game! I really loved the graphics. :) Good job!

paulhudson 2020-10-22 06:29

Guys, this game is a lot of fun! Idea, music and sounds (especially singing) = brilliant. Little bit more work on graphic of background and it will be good mobile game)

Great spin on the theme! Took me a bit to figure out what to do. The second level was pretty frustrating because it seemed like I should have been able to escape after lifting the board, but there was an invisible force holding me back. Eventually figured out the log trick by accident. Overall, really solid game implementation for such a short period of time!

m0dsat 2020-10-22 09:20

Lol. We talked about this exact idea as well. God job on the implementation.

papykent 2020-10-22 13:54

Love it! Such a smart take on the theme!

jrevel 2020-10-22 14:07

That was a bit short, but really fun ! Cool idea !

mog13 2020-10-22 14:41

short but fun. was something supposed to happen after i clicked leave? Great idea and I thought it was executed really well. the art and graphics worked well and the whole game had a nice feel. great job on this!

trexxak 2020-10-23 02:03

Aaaaah, I love the artstyle :3

The gameplay felt a bit unresponsive at times, even after "getting" it, nonetheless I had a lot of fun! Especially with the yodelling log boat riders :'D
