Very cool game, it does make you think outside the box, and the art style is pretty neat as well. Nice entry overall!

Submitted

holy, this was cool

I love everything, the graphics are phenomenal I really wanna learn how to be able to make this sort of smooth half-reflecty kinda graphics someday. the level design is pretty cool for the idea, everything is cool!

The sounds can get a little repetitive, I noticed that you use multiple sounds for each instance, but even more, you can randomize the pitch and length! (this is nitpicking because I literally don’t have any feedback this was great)

Nice entry (:

Developer

Reeeally gald you like it!Hope someday i can come up with genius ideas like you!Maybe i can share with you the psd or code in some way if you like it!

Developer

I got no time for sfx orz. but i do want to create a game where the sfx is well set and music not often used (like pentiment)

One of the best vector graphics game I've seen in this jam. I really loved the physics and the mechanics of the game. Sound effect are also nice.

Best of luck

Be sure to play and rate my game as well, it will be a pleasure.

Thanks for playing! Really glad you like it!

Cool concept and great execution. And awesome atmosphere!

Maybe some indication of how much and where I can expand borders could be useful since on some levels you can only size once in one direction then you can do it three times on other levels.
That mechanic of going inside or outside was interesting and added quite a bit of challenge which I liked. I feel like some times it was not very intuitive if I would get through the wall or will I just get pushed. But it was not frustrating so it didn't bother me.

Overall it was a great game, and I really liked it. I hope it might grow to a full game one day!

Developer

I'm so glad you like it! And thank you for pointing out the problems in the game!

Submitted

love this game design so much, and art style are so good, wish for more content to play 

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm so glad you like the game and I definitily want it to be a complete game someday!

Creative game, makes you think out of the box.

Some later levels required more platforming skills, so they were harder for me, but I appreciate the skip button there. I also like that controls tooltip was present the whole game, because at some games I finish first level and forget some controls that were not required there but are in later levels.

Overall the game looks gorgeous and puzzles are great. Good job.

Developer

So glad you like the game! I totally agree about the tooltip and skip! That's the smartest things I've done in this game. But I'm also silly to let the controls be what they were like while I still had time to fix it. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Super smart idea! I struggled with the controls a bit, but I appreciated the level skip option as I wanted to see what the puzzle designs were! Great take on scaling.

Developer

I'm so glad that you enjoy this game! Sorry for the frustration orz. Thanks for playing the game and trying to see all the puzzles!

Submitted

Interesting concept. A bit frustrating that even knowing the puzzle solution, the execution can still take many tries. Good job overall!

Developer

Sorry to frustrate you with the bad controlling OTL. A huge lesson I learnt. Thanks for playing!

Submitted

Very cool and unique puzzle concept! I wish it weren't so timing-focused, but that is just personal preference. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing! Shame the bad controlling makes it hard to do the platforming. Glad you like it!

Wow, great game! Boundary leaking is an interesting idea. It gives the feeling that you cheated the game, but in fact it was all intended that way.

Developer

Thanks for playing! That it the whole process I making this game lol.

Submitted

Wow, I love this! The gameplay is really well done and the level design is super impressive. Very clever concept too, with a really nice interpretation of the theme! The physics feels a little wonky sometimes, and I don't always know which side of a box I'll end up on when I change its size. It would also be nice to have an indicator that showed how big or small a box could get, and the sounds helped a lot with that. Overall really great game with a really nice and polished aesthetic!

Developer

I'm so glad that you like it! Sorry it has been frustrating. Shoulda fixed the controlling. the indications are also lacked. Thanks for playing and feedingback!

Submitted

Very nice game, I loved the concept and the puzzles. One tricky thing is that the jump height is greatly reduced when against a wall which made some of the jumps frustrating.

Developer

Sorry to frustrate you with bad controlling. Shoulda fixed during the jam. Thank you for playing!

Submitted

This one was a treat! Border mechanic was surprisingly very intuitive to use, i enjoyed it quite a lot.

Developer

Very interesting puzzle game with a pleasant artstyle. Although some of the later levels require specific timing that can get frustrating, the experience all together is pretty good :]
