Nice job! Feels very polished and lots of great art! Made it all the way to the end but missed one heart piece :)

Nice job! Good puzzle elements, I like the drawing mechanics, even tough I`m not a fan of switching from keyboard to mouse in the middle of the game x)

The challenges are pretty neat, and graphics are pleasant to look at. Goob job!

I really love this entry. Good graphics, sounds, and puzzle design. The only thing I could rant is that the switch control button is "Enter or Return" which is far from "W,A,S,D". I think "Shift" will be a good choice for this function. Well done though!

Thanks guys!
@CatOnMars: you can change the controls in the main menu. But there, it is named "Change" instead of "Switch"..

Very nice. I got stuck on one of the levels, but it was very polished.

Interesting game, the art and music are very nice. The dynamic music was interesting, though I think some of the sounds clashed with it (most notably the sound for moving platforms, which was kind of annoying). I liked the 'magic' power, it was very interesting, though it was hard to use due to the control scheme. Since A, D, Enter, Space, and Mouse are all used, I don't have enough hands to play normally. So I had to frantically switch around to use the magic power and that delay often caused the bridge to disappear and send me into lava. If jump was W and switch was E or Shift, that might be more convenient!

Lovely game. Jump is a bit clunky. Loved the Fx and the art!

I'm not gonna lie, I'm usually not one to sincerely compliment graphics, or really enjoy pixel art a ton, but I'll tell you what; I actually really enjoy the aesthetic of this game, and it's quite well done. The only critique I could serve as an artist would be some smoother player animations, but it's a ludum dare game and that's totally understandable for them to be a little jumpier. I understand what it's like to cut out little things like that for a dare game, I know I have. But yeah, really good job. Also I love the interpretation of the theme. Overall, my personal favorite submission I've played so far.

The graphical style looks really nice, particularly the distinct colour palette for both the boy and the girl, and the music also works very well. Gameplay-wise, the premise is very good, and it can most certainly be fun, but I found the control a bit inconvenient. Nevertheless, it is a really good game. Congrats!

And I just saw your moment about being able to change the controls... I really should have read the other comments before I've posted. Thanks, it's a lot easy to play when adjusted. And I've upped the rating of course to account for this.

Really neat game and mechanic. Works great for a puzzle game. The spell mechanic is really clever and cool! The art and music are top notch, but missing one heart piece and getting the bad ending was really frustrating :P

Clever entry, liked the changing between the girl and boys worlds and the way you developed the puzzles around that mechanic.

Really nice! The sound and graphics were great, and the game itself was not too easy or too difficult. I liked the little sounds the characters made, and how the music subtly changed at different points.

Hi there. Love the theatrical applause at end of levels. Found the ceiling too low once started to jump over metal-stars from moving platform... kept banging head and getting redirected down ;) Great pixel art. Nice sounds, waterfall sound. Good job!

This was really well executed. I didn't finish it, but only because I'm kinda bad at platformers.

It was a nice, enjoyable platformer. Would have been nice if the girl's spell would have stayed on the screen a little longer.

Nice! Really enjoyed this one. The mouse spell thing was neat, even though it made me switch from keyboard to mouse and back. Worth it :)
