This has a really sympathetic mood. :) I loved the help signs scattered around, really made the game take care of the player. Only negative thing was the music - only four seconds of music that loops forever. :D

Cool game mechanic. It's pretty unforgiving sending you back to the start on game over though.

Great job, I loved it! The size-switching-concept has great potential.

I could only get through the first level or so (I kept getting slain by the lava). It was great though!

And here I was thinking the game was gonna be easy...

It look easy until I found that there the deadly pools of lava boiling underground :D. Anyway, the concept of size changing is quite cool, the black grid is in my opinion a bit distracting.

Absolutely brilliant! The level design is fantastic. The only thing lacking is audio but in a way it's kind of relaxing
