Minimal Moves by 1WeekEndStudio
/!\ For a better experience, use Xbox controller, and play with a friend! /!\
Concept
Minimal Moves is a cooperative puzzle for 1-2 players based on saving resources (which is a fundamental of the Minimalist Movement).
There are two avatars and each one has a unique ability: one is able to rotate the elements of the level while the other can translate them. Those ability consume proper resource to each avatar.
Their goal is to use thoses abilities to reach the warp in each level.
But! Don't spend to many resources because they are not refilled between levels! The only way to recover resource is to collect orbs spreaded through the different levels.
Well, actually, when an avatar collect an orb, it's the
other avatar which earns resources. So, the only way to win is to cooperate =)
Good luck & have fun!
Input
Left joystick / Arrow / WASD: move active avatars
A / Space / Enter: play / use avatar's ability
X / Tab: swap between avatar

I would like to know how to do that wind :)
Great look and atmosphere!
We're going to improve feedback and level design as soon as possible =)
Very pretty graphics and atmosphere, sound complements it nicely. Well done :)
I really like the two player puzzle concept, and even just playing it yourself and switching between the characters is quite fun.
Some of the moves/actions you can do weren't that obvious tho, and it did take some failed attempts before I started learning how to do what I wanted.
Great work! And kudos for including a Linux build and using a fairly fast download site! :)
However the 3D manipulation or perspective of the puzzle is hard to "master", especially if you try to visualize what will happen if you rotate something. The possibility to watch the stage from other angle shot may help the player to understand more easily her/his choices.
And a minor minus( which is partially my fault too!), when you are playing the game on the computer, the Player2 controls ( Enter, Shift and co) activate the "persistent keys"(Should have disable that thing!!)
Now a change of subject: When collecting a orb while the two avatars are on the same "case", both of them receive resources ! Bug or Feature?;)
Finally, I found the theme well exploited here and the degrees of polish is high!Again, congrats for this entry!!
