Thanks for the positive feedback! It's always nice to have people finish your game :)
@GodsBoss: I made a couple tests (on Ubuntu) but couldn't reproduce your issue, sorry. While the square can (rarely) get stuck, pressing R to restart the level normally fixes it. If the whole game got stuck you may have had a JS error?
Ohh my gosh that was sooo cute! The intro actually made me laugh and this is the first game with a story so far. And its a good one (for a game made in 48 hours)! At first some of the platforming was kinda "eh", but once I got the hang of it and was introduced to the other mechanics, I was impressed. The story was really creative and SUPER cute. Your humor is really good you must be a pretty good writer or something. I had a fun, one of the best submissions so far IMO. And even though you used simple shapes, you polished everything up really well, the animated background, the boxes that floated when you were the square. The puzzles were nice and easy to progress the story but hard enough and had form that I had to think a lil' for a few of em' I would love to see what else you can do!
Oooooh, definitely felt the Thomas was Alone vibe there! However this one has a different feel to it, and it's a good feel! Very humorous game, great great job!
Well done! Best game I've seen for now. Fun and simple, and it made me smile. It's a pity it does not have a little bit of sound, but hey, take it with humor :D
I'll begin by saying I came here after you posted to our game. You asked how we did the curved wall. I posted a reply on our game's thread referencing you to the source. Basically, we keep an array of points for each of the walls, then do deltaY * e^(x^2) on all points when a drag happens.
I must say I really enjoyed the story. Subtle irony with respect to conventional love stories and a proper cliffhanger. The mood could be complemented with some sound, but I felt the story broke through and immersed me.
Overall, it was a nice experience, but in the beginning it was a bit frustrating.
I had some issues with the controls. I couldn't figure out how to jump with Circle. It wasn't immediately obvious that you jump more if you're horizontally moving. Also, occasionally, Square wouldn't go to the edge. It would stop almost there leaving me a bit stuck. Somehow the controls felt a bit fidgety in the end.
Really enjoyed the game. Loved the overall aesthetic, humour, and mood. The square platforming was a lot of fun, it was the first introduction of some amount of puzzle, I especially liked that first level where you had to figure out how to use the square. I would have liked to see more! Really nice polish, great game overall.
About your comment: It's very nice that you remember my comment about get stucked :DD Thank you for your appreciation of physics, it was very difficult. I see that you also handled it very well.
About your game: I completed the 17 levels. I have fallen in love with your game. I like the little story of love, and how they complement each other and have to change shape to solve a cleverly designed puzzles. Very funny when loaded graphics. 5/5
Fantastic entry! I probably would have considered giving 4 overall for the lack of audio, but that intro more than makes up for it. The graphics were minimal, sure, but that's sort of the only way I'd expect a game about geometric shapes to be. It's a funny, well presented, fun platformer with a great narrative and a really nice pace, and really charming. It's also the first game I'm giving 5 across the board :)
Just fantastic! Absolutely brilliant narration, great level design idea, cute assets, really good work :)
PS disable the scroll on space key in your javascript, it's a little disturbing on little screen and it prevents me to see the top of the levels when I switch shape
Again thanks for all the nice comments. Actually I didn't expect that most people would take the time to read and enjoy the story... How the writing turned out to be the most praised aspect of the game is a very interesting lesson!
Wow! i must, this is a really good game.. lol i actually finished it and played till the end xD.. Over all i just loved the game form the start to the way it ended nicely done :D. Also the level design and the way you introduced the characters was simply awesome. The feed backs, the way the BG changes..nice :D Although i wish there was sound but.. i understand :p anyway all the best.. great entry keep up the good work (:

Great job!

Will try again at home, I'm now at work and was able to play (and win) the game, a great one for sure.
Had a good time. Great mood!
I really liked this game. Great narrative and good 'loading/downgrading' of the graphics. The humour was right up my street.
The gameplay was just complex enough to be interesting, while maintaining a simplicity that suited the game well.

The graphics are just perfect for this game, the mechanics work flawlessy. Too bad it didn't have sound.
Also +1 for a game with terminal emulation for story telling, I did that last time :D
