The core concept of switching between platforms in a platformer isn't exactly unheard of.

I liked the concept. and the level design is pretty good. The sound is appropriate for the game and the graphics fit it well as well. Overall a very good entry.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>If I would improve something, it's the ball's movements as they can be a bit rough around the edges and some of the times that I fell I felt that it wasn't fair."},{"author_name":"BMacIntosh","author_uid":"15030","time":"Aug 27, 2014 @ 3:39pm","epoch":1409153640,"text":"Looks great.

The game runs at a solid 60fps on my office (non gaming) PC. I noticed some lag, when I had two unity players running in different tabs though. It also helped using Chrome instead of Firefox. And you could also try the standalone version for better performance."},{"author_name":"nonetheless","author_uid":"36254","time":"Aug 28, 2014 @ 5:36pm","epoch":1409247060,"text":"Very nice game, for my taste movement is a little to slow, but it's very fun and totally complete entry, everything works nicely here.

I like the simplicity and clarity of what to do and how to do it, although inversion didn't work as I expected at the beginning of the second level and then I got stuck there. But I like the music, sounds, a visual style. Maybe speed up the movement for some quick dashing through the levels. Cool spin on the theme! I think you've done a nice job!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>*** Ooh! Gamepad support! NICE! You should really mention that! ***\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Now that I've played to ...uh... needs a level counter! Got to something like Level 6. There are parts that are frustrating to fail because it takes a little too much work to get over to them to try again.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I really hope you continue this game because you're on the right track. I'd add check points or make replay of each level less frustrating. Visually, though, I love your level designs. The cavern was one of my favorites. Love the background pieces except when it's hard tell them from the foreground.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Sorry, this is a lot of babble, but I'm a fan and really would love to know that you continue and level up this game. It's a really fun one!"},{"author_name":"mrexcessive","author_uid":"20788","time":"Aug 31, 2014 @ 6:11pm","epoch":1409508360,"text":"Hi there. Nice platformer with toggle.

The level design is quite unique, maybe there could be some parts where, as some said, you should not take a leap of faith, that could be changed so the gameplay does not become a frustrating exercise.
