It felt like I was only seeing a corner of the game screen, and I couldn't tell if that was intentional or if memorizing the layout was part of the game. That said, I still enjoyed it. Even just in the beginning it's one of those games that gets you far too emotionally invested in geometric shapes. (Oh, I also couldn't get the windows download to work)
The camera does follow the Blue character, but you're right that it doesn't show the whole level. This was partly to control when the dialogue from Green and Blue could be seen, but also to 'join them together' in another way – if there's only one camera, they need to be somewhat close for you to see what both of them are doing. But I'm not sure this was as successful as I hoped!
I'm glad you enjoyed it though, and thank you for the feedback :)
the game is original and fun, the narrative is nice and the level design is well thought
Really sweet game! The narrative and music are touching, and the puzzle design is just interesting enough to be engaging and not complicated to lose you :) Good Job!
Thank you! I was worried the puzzles were a bit too simple so I'm glad to hear they were still engaging. Thank you for playing :)
