Interesting puzzles. I really like it.

Awesome puzzle platform, I love the simple idea but really challenging execution.

As a Compo game I would love to "know" that every puzzle has a solution, otherwise after a few attempts and not being able to solve puzzle 5, I'm like "Can you solve puzzle 5?"

Really fantastic little game, I love the "soft" feel of the platforms when you jump/land on them. I like the character. The game feels pretty well polished.

If you released this to the app store today, I am pretty sure you would start earning money from it, I would pay the 99 cents for it.

@tolmera Level5Solution.png I tested, all have solution. The difficulty increase isn't smooth, it was hard to know how difficult a level, when I already know the solution.

Very well done, my brain hurts. Got stuck on lv 19.

Could use music and sound effects and possibly a better level curve.

Great game, tricky at times.(was not a bad thing) could use some sound. But overall Great game really enjoyed playing this!

A fun and simple little puzzle game idea. This visuals and animations is good. I would have preferred less levels and and instead it should have had some music and sound effects. Overall a good compo game.

Very interesting idea - simple, but well executed. Some sound or music would add a lot, but this is already very impressive.

This was delightful! I love the 3D graphics, the cute designs, little touches like how the menu is crafted, and the level reset animation. The puzzles had a great difficulty scale, I made it to level 9.

The way you incorporated this Jam's theme into your gameplay worked really well!

I think some simple background music, and sounds for hoping and completing the loop, would have gone a long way in making it feel immersive, but this is already incredible for a game jam!

Wow level 24 was hard, took me many tries, but very engaging - completed it! Fantastic job getting this all done in the jam! The graphics were really good looking, nice and bright and appreciated the details like clouds in the background. The animations when jumping gave the game a really polished feel too. Its a shame there's no sound but the game is packed full of content. I appreciated that there were so many levels as well, nice variety of mechanics and I thought the difficulty scaled well. Great entry! The fact that you managed this in the compo restrictions is even more impressive!

@ciaranw Level 24 same! It took me an hour or two playing casually while watching tv.

liam-twose 2020-10-24 22:15

Such a neat mechanic, and executed beautifully. Kudos for a job well done =D

sombrero-guy 2020-10-24 22:15

Really cool game! I really like the puzzles and the cartoony visuals!

It's a shame that my small brain couldn't make it passed level 5.

glaikunt 2020-10-24 22:23

Great game it's mental if this was created within the 48 hours. The art all the puzzles. It was all so polished a well thought through. This feels like a full game that could be released on all platforms and be supper successful. Amazing Job!

ale 2020-10-24 22:28

Hah good thing you posted the solution to level 5 because I couldn't figure that one out!

This is an awesome little puzzle game, with really polished animations and graphics. Well done!

fabdynamic 2020-10-25 17:31

This is one of the best if not the best game in the compo. The presentation is amazing and I had so much fun. Super addictive and this could absolutely be a full game! Also I'll add that its instantly accessible and understandable and I love how the animation moves forward and rewinds. The voxel art is classy and lovely too.

cursedembassy 2020-10-25 18:18

nice game! :D

bixarrio 2020-10-25 18:25

Oh, good job! Thanks @fabdynamic for pointing me here

rubixnoob13 2020-10-25 18:49

Really fun game, would have benefited a lot from music or sound effects, though :smile: I finally gave up on #24, altho I may give it another go later on. Solid entry though! Great job!

watermelonandme 2020-10-25 19:00

Funny game, loved the graphics a lot) ♥

fabdynamic 2020-10-25 19:01

@rubixnoob13 #24 took me a long time but was really satisfying to finish! One cool thing about this game is it stores your progress so I hope you do come back and try again. I believe in you and that you can get it sooner or later and let me know if you want a clue :)

ismael-rodriguez 2020-10-25 19:34

Pretty much a perfect puzzle game.

@ismael-rodriguez I know right? Congrats for winning it! I'm proud I did too (even if it took me quite a while :) )

robonaut121 2020-10-26 11:30

Great game (especially for compo)! The puzzles were really hard and satisfying to complete. The voxel graphics, although simple, worked quite well for this game. My only complaint is the difficulty curve. I found level 5 really hard, but passed it eventually, finding much of the levels really easy after that. Then the levels got very hard, especially level 19 and 20 (which I have not passed). Great game!

xilentor 2020-10-26 16:05

@fabdynamic Thank you for promoting my game! I realy aprisiate what you did for me! :)

@ismael-rodriguez I save the moving controls absolute position when I load the sceen, I should save the relative position(with the alignment) :S

fabdynamic 2020-10-27 14:02

@xilentor You deserved it :) This is a gem of a game and there was no game more deserving of getting to 20 ratings. I'm glad you got it and thanks again for making it!
