Ahaha, great minds think alike - didn't expect to see another "Soulmates" on here :D The game is good, though it's quite difficult (or maybe I just suck at it!). Great job! :)

Fun idea, I think it's similar to mine. Even though I like challenging games, I found this difficulty a bit frustrating because of level generator - sometimes it gives unbeatable obstacles (at least I find them unbeatable). Could you also explain hanging mechanic? Can I jump after grabbing a wall?

It's challenging, and a lot easier to play when you have someone else acting as a back seat driver. Nice pixel art.

Thank you for your kind comments. I took the liberty of making the Webgame & Windows build easier, by spawning less enemy spots. It should now be easier to beat ;)

Nice game, couldn't beat it though. Also I do't know what flipping was for. It basically just changed sides but they were still both vulnerable.

Cool game. The art is really nice. I like the 'soulmates' idea. Gameplay gets pretty boring soon though, but I see some really good potential here, especially with that art!

Nice concept! Needs more polish but great work for 48 hours!

Quite a challenging game, I like it. The physics are a bit wrong though (you can stand on a wall).
Anyways, great first entry. I encourage you to take part in the next one, too!
PS: This game reminded me a little bit of my own one. We must have had similar thoughts in the beginning, but took them into different directions :-)

Fun game, kind of hard.

Simple game, but really fun. I loved how the levels are randomly generated, it gives it a lot of replay value.

It just needed a score to make it more interesting.

Also, it has already been said, the physics have some problems, with players sticking on walls, but nothing that hurts the game.

That's a pretty good one!

Similar but not exactly like Fractured Souls for 3DS ;)

Interesting little game. I enjoy how flipping doesn't actually do anything gameplay wise, but it helps you concentrate better.

Really nice shot ! Love the interpretation of the theme !
The game was quite difficult, though, but liked it !

Good job ;)

Congratulations on your first Ludum Dare dude! Nice work.
The collisions were a bit off and the game is a bit too unforgiving for my taste, wrong jump? BOOM loud sfx DEAD.
But it does have that "just one more try" feeling. Flipping worlds is the best thing since it obviously helps without really changing anything.
The end cracked me up big time whaha.

Nice style. Collision detection could be better because player very often sticks to the wall without ability to jump.

Good job for your first LD man! The game was quite difficult in the beginning, I became better after a couple times failing. I liked what you did with the sound and I also liked how the levels were randomly generated. Like said before the collisions were a bit off, so that made it more difficult too. But again: GOOD JOB!

Nice game.

Collision needs some work - Id get stuck on walls often.

Nice game for such a short time! Is it me or is the switch just there for fun or is it really mandatory?
