You are a dangerous genetic experiment, and you are loose! Escape the lab that imprisons you, if you can!
W, A, S, D to move. J to walk through walls. M to Mute.
Have fun I have to go to work.
Fade was made in 7 hours. Sorry I did not have more time!

For just 7 hours of work this result is amazing! Makes me wonder what my 72 hours of time went into...
(And for a jam entry it's still pretty good!)
I'm a bit confused by this freaky "new game+" mode I got entered into when reaching the green box at the very top. Is the whole game actually supposed to be solvable with two cubes in opposite modes at once?
No that is a glitch I did not have time to solve, sorry about that I just did not have time.
Man you have such a simple game that kept me playing til the end. That was a big level for just 7 hours. Nice one. And the difficulty scaled nicely as you went along. I really liked the concept of going into those invisible walls, I hope you could flesh this out sometime. GJ!
Nice concept. I like the ability to walk through walls. Good job.
While not very polished (and with only 7 hours of work I don't blame you!), I feel like there could actually be something to this. You seem to have a pretty good idea of how to use the mechanic in a nice way to create some pretty interesting platforming. I managed to mute in the beginning though, and couldn't unmute :( But I think this could definitely be pretty nice with some more work, I'm getting a slightly metroidvania-like vibe from the level design, maybe that's something that could be expanded on?
Original mechanics, really hard to play, reminds me VVVVVV or something. Good entry!
Neat level design and it has a lot more content than I expected. This is also the best victory message I've seen so far:

Thank you nassi, I knew it would have problems but it's what I could do in the time I had. I will try to clean it up bit by bit
.
Nice entry, especially considering you made this in a very short time. I like the original mechanics, the platform engine feels smooth and bug-free. I suggest improving some of the visual style in a 'Thomas was alone' style.
I really like the mechanic you have when walking through walls! Great job!
Fairly fun platforming and interesting concept. At first I didn't make the connection that the green box was like a lever or button that effected other parts of the level.
The controls or physics feel a bit wonky at first. I'm not sure but maybe the gravity is a lot lower than usual games. Swimming/wall jumping feels a bit button mashy.
I like how you used the walk through walls mode in the level design during the falling parts.
It's a good thing you had time to add checkpoints!
Very cool and well implemented mechanic. Good level design as well! Very good entry.
Really cool platformer idea. Took me a while to get the hang of "swimming" through the walls, but once I did, it totally rewarded the learning curve. Theme would probably haven been better paid off with some graphics, but that's understandable with the short timeframe and the massive level you built.
One issue, when I reached the green exit(?) at the top, the game threw an error (below). So... not sure if I won?

that was quite neat and fun, i liked it
p.s. i liked that you had m for mute partial way through the game :P
Love the mechanic! Some of those jumps were quite tricky but that's just how I like it :) Impressive for only 7 hours of work!
Super interesting mechanic. Very catchy and challenging. Great job!
Really cool walking through wall mechanic, the level is designed really well and very challenging. Cool creepy music too :)
Cool! Really hard did not beat. What does it have to do with the theme though?
I really like the concept, you also show the potential of the mechanics in your leveldesign. Also the the 2 cubes mode could have potential :D Awesome work for 7 hours!
Interesting game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/wEgI5I5KLKY

Mini Submission FAQ
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.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
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 at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
Hope you continue to develop this
