Love this game! Music is awesome, especially once you spawn an Imp! :D he is so small :D

Lovely idea, great execution. The timer could maybe be made a little bit shorter as I barely ever felt stressed because of it, but that's my only nitpick. The self referential humor of the the two protagonists is great!

Really great humour, audibly laughed the first time I summoned the imp and the music changed so drastically. Also really enjoyed the banter between the protagonists. Puzzles were straightforward once you understood the mechanics which I really appreciated.

Best time was 08:41, a speed runner I am not, but I had a good time with this one.

Imp music theme is everything! The narration boxes looks very stylish

Nice shader usage for the transformation. The UI it's very pretty! I can see it worked into a full game, nice level design, Great entry!!

Neat mechanics merged with good humor and fun gameplay!

Feeling of the moment when summoning the imp kept its joy until the end of the game, nice execution! Also how imp works is designed pretty smart, makes you look at the level from another perspective and small time pressure with distorting visuals boosts the experience as well. Dialogues are pretty funny and.. TODO: Finish the comment

Love the visual and audio contrast when summoning the imp. Makes solving the puzzle much more dynamic and exciting. Great work!

Very cool game, really good level design on top of a solid core mechanic!

Wasn't getting any sound first time I played it so dipped back in for a second go after seeing all the comments, and it was well worth it!

The level design and the puzzles are so creative! Also the game is very funny, great job!

A rather intense game, not what I expected from a puzzle game, but I enjoyed it! The levels flowed really well, which made it simple to navigate even when panicking about the timer! :heart:

This is certainly one of the best games I've played during the jam! The puzzles were clever, adding the timer made for puzzle-solving to be a bit more hectic. I got stuck for a moment on (I believe it was) the penultimate level before figuring out what I was overlooking. The amount of polish was staggering!
