How does your game fit the theme?
You can read "What's behind the door?" as "Watts behind the door". And we were always wondering what was behind the transformator box doors. We now know there's a little man connecting wires and al lot of Watts behind the door.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote most of the code myself. Only the movement was inspired by a YouTube video. I've drawn all the assets. And the music was made by my friend.

Cool concept, but there were a few bugs that were a bit annoying or gamebreaking. The wire could be thrown through doors, which meant most levels could be cheesed and jumping on doors didn't always work well. The idea of being able to wrap the wire around buttons to keep them down was really clever though, and there's some potential there if it gets polished a bit more.

Super cool and original idea! I had a lot of fun solving these puzzles. The moment I realized that I could wrap the wires around buttons to press them felt sooooo good. Congrats on making me feel that, that's something hard to do. 

The mechanics are really good and fit the game really well. Having zones that you can pass but the wire can't, and viceversa, for example, is cool. Then with buttons, those connections to power stuff, it really manages to crate interesting puzzles. I like the idea of not being able to jump while you carry the wire, it was a really smart choice because it feels different.

The art is amazing! amazing what you could do! It looks great and original, and fits the game perfectly.

Amazing take on the theme! When I was brainstorming I also though of the "Watts behind the door". The art style is really well made. However, I miss some sound effects.

Very cool game.  Needs a restart buttons for dumb people who throw the cable out of reach.

Thank you

You could just press R to restart. But I didn’t have the time to add the indication to each level, so it’s only in the first level

I loved the art and design of the game, the attention to detail on the cables is great, it's a great game.

Very cute art. I loved the Effects on top of the game and the idea is very interesting. I love that you can just throw the wire everywhere and figure out how to solve the levels. Well done!

A big fan of the art and the throw mechanic. Jumping did feel a bit floaty and you could kinda shimmy through the red zone with the wire. But a very polished puzzle game, good work!

I like the art style a lot!

interesting interpretation of a theme, cool game

I love your pixel art and effects! It was a very simple mechanic that had a lot of cool puzzles with it! Great job. I also cheated on the last level :)

I enjoyed the puzzles and difficulty, reminds me of some oldschool flash games. However I'm not a fan of the player movement. It feels slippery and imprecise, and the jump height made it hard to go up "stairs" that had things above them. That makes the game less fun because it doesn't make the puzzles harder to think about, it just makes trying possible solutions more annoying. Also, I had to zoom the page out to get the game to fit on my screen.

Thank you for the constructive feedback. I think at some point I spent too much time with the controller so I didn’t notice the issues it had.

This was a wonderfully fun game. I really had a blast and I'm glad that I found it among all of the other submissions. I hope that you continue development after the jam ends.

Such a cool game!! Loved the style and puzzles the difficulty went brr!! Tho I cheated the last level haha with colissions ;)!

Tho sadly in fullscreen the game wasn't playable so I had to resize my hole screen but that wasn't a problem for me! Also the music was a bit repetitive but I wasn't listening to it much. 

Really well done puzzles for reall they still hurt my brain.

Very cool game mechanics and nice looking graphics!
