Fun and interesting take on the unstable theme. I finished in around 7 minutes (took me a while to get the timing for hover just right). Maybe the game could use a few more advantageous situations for the ice cube. I always went with water when possible for the smaller hitbox.
Really clever implementation of the theme! I like the minamalist art style, and the particle effects while changing states was really satisfying. I would have liked to know when I had reached a checkpoint, but otherwise a really good experience. Nice work! (Finished in 3:27)
I really liked your grainy film-like art style here. Interesting take on the theme :)
Really neat concept! I loved the idea and think it would be a great game with some polish. Feedback: It's a bit hard to see which "part" of the gas or liquid that you control. And I think the "instant evaporation" obstacle is a bit hard to see when it's on or off. Otherwise: Great game! :)
OVerall very good concept and art style!
This game is as cool as ice. This game should be on steam. There was an issue with the collision boxes of the fire that they were out of sync with the visuals. Great concept for a game and would love to see it taken further.
That was fun game. The concept was well executed. It was a great puzzle platformer.
A really cool (as ice?) game. A novel concept, and a very neat visual style. The flames being instant death zones is a little annoying, but i liked the game regardless. (i finished in 3:37)
I got 3:54. I think encouraging people to share their times adds some engagement and was a nice touch. The music and sound effects were all really good.
I liked it a lot, although i got really frustrated XD The part where you have to go through fire on both sides to click on the button was really hard. the music is great, as well as the sound effects. maybe the graphics could be something that's more related to water or something cool like that. Overall I really liked it!
Pretty nice game ! The idea for the theme is really smart, I like it ! I didn't manage to reach the end, the floppy bird phase was too much for me ahah
Very nice and minimalistic game, the idea is great!
I'm in love with music, but platformer to hard for snowflakes like me :snowflake:
Very interesting concept, I liked the implementation of different states allowing different mechanics and such, creating a unique platformer game. Like some others have mentioned, the particles were sometimes hard to tell whether or not it would hit me, but thank god for checkpoints. Also, not sure if intended, but buttons stayed pressed even if you didn't reach the next checkpoint.
Minor nitpick: shouldn't "instant evaporation" just turn you into a gas?
But yeah, fun game! It manages to draw a lot of different gameplay ideas from just a few easy-to-understand rules. Very difficult in places, but it's probably better to err on the side of too-hard than too-easy. Nicely done!
Incredible work! The graphics look great, controls are tight. I love the 3-states mechanic, and can already imagine how it could be expanded upon for a full game. (Something like leaving part of your "body" behind as an ice cube to weigh down a switch, for example.) Keep going with this concept!
I really liked your! The only problem I had was the timing with the disappearing fire, because you can/must eenter it while its still displayed
Maybe a little work to do to improve the visual on the "fire" to better understand when we can pass. The rest was really good ! the level design is well done, quite challenging but no too much. Nice idea along the way, nice music and very good particule effect.
Really good take on the theme! The gameplay is quite good as well, the visual on the fire wasn't clear at first, but once I figured out the timing I could do it consistently. Other than that the graphics and the aesthetic of it was very good, music was nice, and the level design was just punishing enough.
Also wasted a stupid amount of time filling the cup with icecube.png
@oliver-richmeier Hahaha. Glad you found an unusual use for the game) I didn't think of playing with this ice like that :)
