Nice music, good graphics overall, interesting mechanics. I especially liked the level design, congratulations for having many levels, and thanks for not having too many so I could still reach the end of the game :-)
I really enjoyed this. It was simple but really fun, and with a great deal of variety. As soon as you introduced the shadow character, I was like "Whoa this is great" and it really helped make the gameplay fresh again. Congrats on a fantastic entry!
Nice game! Music and graphics are awesome. I liked the level design also, but I managed to get blocked on the yellow tiles with no possibility of restarting the level (or did I missed something ?)
Simple but fun game. Your shadowy opponent actually popping in after a while, as opposed to just being a more metaphorical thing, was nice and added in a nice change of pace from the first few levels.
Great game! The puzzle were really interesting, especially after the doppelganger was added, though I felt the difficulty jumped around a bit. I've seen quite a few falling tile puzzle games this jam, though I feel that this one has the most original twist on the concept. I would love to see more!
Really cool game! Loved the graphics. The music went well with the waving background. I imagine it's not easy to come up with the puzzles, but maybe you could rearrange the order of the levels because it felt the difficulty was a bit random. Congratulations on your entry!
I loved this game. Very interesting puzzles. As others have stated, you could probably reorder the levels. I would also recommend having an instructions screen before the first level starts. I got stuck on level 4 because I didn't quite understand all the mechanics until I happened to read the description below the game. I really enjoyed it though. Loved the sprite for the player.
I did run into a weird bug. I beat the game and decided to try to run through it again. I got to level 5 and some weird stuff started happening. As I walked through the level, random tiles started falling even though I hadn't stepped on them yet, so I couldn't complete a second run-through. You can see it happening below:
However, it is a testament to the game that I completed it and even wanted to play through it again. Great job!
@rusty-bailey thanks for the feedback, and the bug report. that is super weird. i'll have to try it out myself and see what is going on with the level data. my guess is that it think the shadow-guy is active even though it isnt' showing him : )
Nice and simple. The audio and graphics fit together nicely, creating a very retro atmosphere. The puzzles are quite fun, especially once Shadow Valdi appears. I really enjoyed this and I'd gladly play a version with more levels.
Cute little puzzle game! I felt some of the levels in the second half were a bit easy, but honestly I prefer that to impossible. The mechanics are displayed well so I think I just caught on fast. That last level is what it's all about: taking everything you know from the game and using it in a slightly different way... it was a very well-executed final challenge!
I like the puzzle element of this game, although some levels are easier than the previous one. Really took the time to solve them all and it went successful in my part. A great entry, well played.
Very well done puzzle game! Loved the shadow mechanic. Very fun and just the right level of difficulty :). I could see this being expanded with more mechanics such as teleporters, moving tiles, flipping tiles, multiple shadows, etc
The art and music are fitting. I love this kind of games and I know that creating the levels must be tricky.
+1 for pico8!
