Play the Windows version if you can. It runs much better.

Lovely little game, I love the mechanics very unique and the music is very chill. I do struggle on the later levels, but the challenge is fun.
(I beat it YAY)
good job beating the game. the last level is not easy.
Whooooof. Fascinating take on the concept. At first I thought that I'd played games that did the trail meaning something before, but the simple on-off switch at specific locations REALLY changed things up. I was genuinely surprised how hard of a puzzle you were able to make out of level 9. Got there in the end, but you *really* challenged me there. I think you did a lot well, but I want to especially praise you for pushing what you made (coding wise) to the limit with your level design. Good luck in the jam!
took me so long to get lvl 9 but i got there
Good job for beating level 9.
Are there any things you think could be improved?
How have you found my game?
There was a sudden spike in views when I opened my games page today. I'm guessing something must have happened but I can't figure out what so I was wondering if you know since you are the last person to leave a comment on my game since then.
Hey, a streamer called Ludwig played your game on a member only stream and really liked it, that's probably it.
That explains why my games views doubled overnight.
It took him about 40 min to beat the entire game and he loved it! Great job, I hope you expand on it, it's super fun!
This is wonderful. Great job, you two!
Okay this game just sucked me in for like the past 3 hours of my life. I give up on level 9. I accept defeat. incredible!
Great game! Very hard levels at the end!
Had to use all my brain power. Very cute graphics, music is a nice loop, sfx are nice!
Maybe a smoke effect when landing and jumping. Additional tiles like water, grass, sand level would be cool.
Add the controls to the main menu or settings!
Really cute game with a unique mechanic. loved the art and music!
This was such a clever puzzle platformer. The puzzles were designed super well, as the levels often tricked me into attempting the puzzle incorrectly before I got it right. Very satisfying to complete these levels, really great job!
Edit: There were a few very small bugs that you can hopefully fix - restarting while in a jar keeps it open, and restarting sometimes doesnt reset the trail. I was also stuck on level 9 for a very long time, and it doesnt seem possible.
I know about the second bug not the first one, but I think that they are caused by the exact same thing and fixing it is not going to be fun. I'm going to have to dive in to some pretty bad code.
Level 9 has a trick to it, only 2 people were able to solve it so far.
Thanks for letting me know its possible. I was worried that there might have been an oversight. That was an insanely hard solution! Took me very long to complete it, hahah
Your game wasn't easy either, I gave up after trying the first hard level. But now that you have suffered my final level I need to pay you back, and give your game's hard levels another try.
hahahah noo, only play the hard levels if you enjoy the challenge!
i was able to solve 9 but i did it by abusing the bug where restarting on a jar keeps it open so it doesn't really count.
Let's call it a speed running strategy :)
btw how did you find the game? You are the first person to comment on my game in a month.
I watched the ludwig vod, this game stood out nice job
thank you. I can't believe people are still finding my game from that VOD
Really like these mechanics! The way of thinking required for these puzzles is actually really similar to my own submission. Great work :D
This one is a huge favourite for me! I love finding different ways to make my trail :)
Thank you. I'm happy to hear you liked it.
I love it so much.
awesome game especially the concept, got stuck on level 9
Wow, I really loved this! I was not expecting this set of mechanics and it tore my brain apart. Big win! Thank you for sharing!
Concept is good but arrows don't work on my keyboard !
Thank you for telling me. Because of your comment, I was able to fix the arrow keys half an hour before the jam ended.
You're welcome :)
