quiet a few ways to get stuck...
for example collecting the final pieces for the forth crystal in the bottom right area...
forth crystal increases your size. which gets you stuck down there cause the hole then is too small.
at one point in a previous try, the camera got zoomed out in the middle right area, camera jsut zoomed out and got stuck at that view, socamera doesnt follow the ball anymore and you cant see what the ball does off scren there.
fix it up and ill happily play it again since in general it is a nice game :-)
Thanks for the feedback! I'll let you know when I have the post-jam update done.
I know this is quite late, but I have finally uploaded a build that addresses all of your issues. Thanks again for the feedback!
Tried it again, worked way better thsi time! :-)
Was really enjoying this--until I got stuck. But that aside, it's a cool premise!
Several other bugs--the platforms in general get a little confused if you touch them (as seen above, where it can't figure out it needs to reverse).
At size 3, I somehow came down from the upper level (with the cannon and three platforms) without the camera zooming back in. When I moved left, I just went off the screen. (going back up and then down again seemed to fix that.)
But obviously I kept playing if I found those things, so there was still a lot to like here!
Thank you so much for playing and identifying all of these issues! I will work on fixing these in the post jam update.
this is great! There was a similar game on here where u play as Russian dolls and slowly get larger, but this one feels more polished. Pressing esc closed my game mid play and I had to start over, fair warning
This is quite cool!
Thank you :)
This is a very fun game, but I got the camera stuck on the far right, when at the third size.
I'm really sorry to hear that! I will try to fix the issue today.
Okay, I have got a new build up that fixes that bug. Thanks so much for identifying it!
No problem. Just beat the game now, really great and complete-feeling experience for a game jam.
Wow, thanks so much :)
can you upload a windows download?
Okay, Windows build uploaded :)
thank you!
