Not that fitting for the theme methinks, but the theme was crap any way. Good job!
- nice level graphics
- quite tricky but doable, nice difficulty balance
bad:
- controls are a bit awkward (up+down for dropping through platforms is odd, and I naturally rebound to WASD because at the start it didn't tell me there would be something on the 1 key ;__;)
- the unique mechanic felt a bit under-utilized and sometimes cheesable (e.g. by using the respawns and going before the turrets fire on one level)
I think that dropping from platform should have another keys, up+down is uncomfortable for use.
It took a little while to understand that objects toggling key is 1, it would be nice to add it to key configuration.
Also objects toggling cooldown sound really helpful.
Solid work for game jams!
