O.U. No! The hive has been taken over by Ophiocordyceps unilateralis "O.U. for short ;) " it's sending signals through the hive to consume and overthrow the queen! Hop through the hive as two Honey slimes to save the hive from the dastardly fungi. Battle a forlorn larva to put him out of his misery and meet the queen! Have fun!

It's a good 2d platformer. I didn't understand why I should switch between characters. I think it would be nice to illustrate why this is necessary.

Wow i was impressed with the dual mechanics and the platforming, that was actually quite challenging but very balanced. Also very cool that you can never really get suck anywhere there is always a way forward :) I had a good time saving the hive!

Fun two-body game. I agree with one of the commenters to show that some blocks appear only for a brief moment after you switch because I was confused at first. But after I realized that, I beat the game pretty quickly. Doesn't precisely fit the theme of signal, and also the title of the file says ld58. But, those are minor nitpicks. Other than that, I enjoyed it. Especially like the squishiness of the characters

I really struggled with this one lol! I'm really bad with platformers, I really liked the graphics but like others mentioned it didn't quite fit the theme. Regardless of that you've got a solid game even if I couldn't beat it!

A fun platformer!

Switching between 2 chartacters with different movement abilities is a neat feature :)

My only nitpick is that the BG soundtrack is a little too intense & high-pitched for my taste (but maybe it's fitting, considering we're saving the hive), and the entry doesn't necessarily fit the "signal" theme, but other than that - a very neat project with cute art style :)
