Good way of tackling the theme. I like the difficulty progression. Even though there was only a tiny amount of music it was pleasant enough not to get repetitive. Good fun.
Not a bad challenge! Two things that frustrated a bit were a) having to change to my mouse to select next level or retry - it's a small thing but it gets annoying after a while (especially if you die a lot!!)
And b) If I shrank on the moving platform I'd sink into them a bit so that I couldn't jump immediately when I wanted to.
Very calm, simple platforming with no real bugs that I can see.
Fun and fair levels with a nice difficulty curve. I also liked how polite the square was.
I didn't see any reason to not stay shrunk the entire time. There is no downside to it, right?
@Sebastian, yeah that moving platform cause a bug there. I tried to fix it; unfortunately, I ran out of time a bit. I'll fix it including the mouse as well in the polish version.
@kirbytails7, no there is no downside to it. Look like someone figured it out. haha
+1 good difficulty progression. The gui interface items confused me at first (the next level and replay buttons).
very nice level progression. I like the 10-second levels!
The shrink ability is cute :]
Apparently moving platforms stops all player control except jump... This doesn't have to be the case, and it's worth the extra effort to allow movement on moving platforms which is more intuitive.
Other than that, everything is great! Well done!
Cool game. I beat it and it is very well done! :D
I noticed there was a glitch when you land a jump you might stop moving so in case you want to make the game complete, I definitely suggest fixing that. Also, I found that sometimes if you spawned at the right time, the smashing things would never be able to get you. One more thing, I found no reason to stay big, which makes it so you should always stay small, making there less challenge. I suggest making it so you can't jump when you are small or something so it makes it so you have to be big sometimes.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Very relaxing game. :)
