A very heartwarming story involving 2 letters, and that creepy guy A. Great concept and execution, the gameplay and platforming was smooth and easy to learn, the flat colored characters on a paper texture background worked well, and you got a few laughs out of me. nice work

Mega great game! I really loved everything about it, only problem I faced was not being able to press "r" to restart. Other then that it really had me playing multiple times until I beat it! I love it :D

It's so cool, I love the idea and the humor who goes with it !
It's ask just the right amount of brain and address (even if the right side of parkour is a bit tricky => small platform).

Great game! Funny idea

First off, super nice aesthetics, animations and background music!

The only thing I think could be better is to have the player controller be a bit more snappy and responsive. It feels a bit "glidy" now.

Anyhow, great job!!

A very cute and friendly little game. I love the art style and the music. This is overall a good jam game. Well done.

Super cute animations, good sound, great concept. I am not a fan of the "find the right button randomly"-approach to some of the puzzles, but that's a personal preference.

I love what you did with the theme! And very well made game in almost all its aspects! The character animations, the music, the mood that came from all of it together. And it was fun to play to. I got through it all, even though it took me long enough to figure out that the scene warping effect correlated with the distance I was from my loved one. I think I also managed to be outside the screen somewhat on one of the maps. Somewhat hard with the controls, but getting it exactly right is so hard. Very well made entry!

Very impressive great job on this. I really liked the distance mechanic but do think you could have elaborated more on this. Would like to see a version 2

Brilliant execution, mood, sound. The whole game was just very satisfying to play. That said, the time limit felt more annoying than "good pressure" I'm not much of a platformer guy. Still, as I said, I really liked the theme, characters, and pretty much everything about the feel of the game, except the time limit, and maybe the running out of time effect.

This is really fun game, surprised not so many people have played this. The audio is cute and the storyline to go with it is really well done and put together. The only thing I would say is the music should fade out and then the new tracks should fade in when there is a track change, just helps the flow of the audio better.

A really solid, impressively polished entry. My main complaint is design wise. It's clearly supposed to be a puzzle platformer, but many of the levels felt more like a precision platformer, where the objectives were simple to figure out but difficult to execute. Also, the platforming movement felt a bit unrefined, with long acceleration and a hopping walk animation that implies nonexistent vertical movement. Overall, though, you did a good job. I especially liked not being allowed to get to far away from the target, and how that was integrated into level design.

Five stars across the board! I absolutely loved this game! Fantastic animation that you don't usually see in jam games, and a really cute story line too. Puzzle difficulty was perfect, and your mechanics were really readable. I especially liked the "don't get too far away" mechanic, which added that little something. Impressed you also had time to do cut scenes and volume control for master, music, and SFX. Congrats on 20 ratings, and great job! :)
