Very interesting game. I recently graduated college and our final project was a game about controlling characters in multiple planes. Its a free download on indiedb.com I think you might find it interesting as its very similar to this game, but with a twist:) http://www.indiedb.com/games/parallel
Nice design. Having the mechanic of switching worlds works well. Graphics were mostly good but it's painful to see bad use of the alpha channel :( Music was good, sound effects basic but functional. Had me stumped on one of those puzzles. Sufficiently frustrating to make me want to come back and try again :P
It remembers me the game Fez on the mechanics (changing perspective and things onto screen). What was your inspiration ? It's a good game, funny, nice idea and related to the theme; It kept me entertained for a while, good job :).
The concept of the game is great, I don't get why on the other world the controls are inverted but it's okay, it just frustrates me, nothing to worry about.
FeYbraNt .. well I start with the idea of haven't a cube and the player exist on each side moving on in one cube have same in the other so you have to adjust your movement on all sides with no shadow . but then i reduced to the opposite side of the cubes only are some but reverted controls .. then i remember small game on gamejolt where you control 2 player and switch between them so i decided to simplify it more to this :D
Good mechanics and really fun! I did run into a problem though. Sometimes when I switch to the second block the direction of movement is flipped so that pressing right arrow moves left and left arrow moves right. I'm not sure if that was intentional but it made it a real challenge to platform that way! Well done!
Even if it seems a cool idea to invert the controls in the second world that a total fail. You should always think that controls need to be removed from the middle, a user shouldn't have to think about the controls but be immersed in the game.
Aside from the occasionally inverted controls, I thought it was a pretty good game. While it started easy, eventually it required a lot of thought. Good job!
I like it. The concept and puzzles are really well done. It's frustrating that the controls are sometimes inverted and sometimes not - and also that you fall straight down when you release l/r, rather than continuing the jump's trajectory.

And Thanks IgIzzy I will check it out .
The graphics need imho some polish but I can live with it ;-)
