Really those are the only things I can think of that you could improve. There's a lot to like here: a nice cohesive art style to the game, plenty of environments, solid control, a chunky number of levels and an interesting hook.

I like how there were so many different ways to explore the areas and the size changing was neat. Definitely needs music and some parts were confusing, like sometimes I was not sure where to go. If possible, it would also be nice if there was a way to tell if the items were (spoiler) based on their location and appearance, but I know that can be really hard to accomplish without being painfully obvious or so confusing the player has to guess instead of think.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1111440,"author_name":"tete","author_uid":"tete","epoch":1728834430,"text":"Fine little platformer, wish there could be more to do by changing sizes (for example, carrying heavy objects by being big), but it's a good start.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1111454,"author_name":"Ggross","author_uid":"ggross","epoch":1728834913,"text":"Nice game!
