Had a play this evening as I didn't have a chance during Expo - really like it! The story is subtle but definitely adds an element of fun. Puzzles felt like they were the correct balance of challenging while also not taking forever to work out. My only critique would be that I found the trigger box for picking up the ladder to be a little small and had to spend a while redoing platforming bits just because I couldn't quite pick up the ladder or it would fall. Really impressive for such a small time, should definitely be proud of yourselves!

Hello,

Thank you for your interest, i’m glad you enjoyed the story.

I completely agree with your critiques, unfortunetly I don’t think I’ll be able to fix the trigger box size, but for the platforming sections, I have made a build (yet to be uploaded) which helps increase the leiniency the puzzles. The puzzles were meant to focus on solving of them and less on the execution, so this was certainly a stumble with the game design. I apreciate your feedback

Thank you

Awesome to hear! I honestly didn't feel as if it detracted much from the experience and it's still such an amazing achievement, especially with your team size! Will definitely have to come back to Expo next year as an alumni and see what you go on to make next :)
