How does the game fit the theme?
This cute lil robot is stuck in a auto-walk loop.
But he has no worries for what is ahead, as he has full faith in you, the Player.

You must make sure nothing goes wrong by editing the level ahead of him to make sure he can safely walk to the goal.

I really enjoyed playing this game!
The level design was well thought out and kept me engaged, though I'm not sure if it's just me, but I thought level 14 was easier than level 13 hahah.
Keep up the good work!

I had a lot of fun playing this, I think the level designs are made very well towards the end. The music is very nice too.

Cute and fun game! I had some problems with the drag-and-drop system, it seemed pretty buggy, and it would be cool if you could add a indicator for where the door/button is and where the player spawns but other than that it was really fun!

Yo this game is actually really cool!

A few gripes:

- The camera is too slow in relation to the map size. A lot of time is spent looking for the button/door

- Due to the nature of the game, retrying is pretty punishing for the longer levels

I feel like if you had made the levels tighter, so that it all fits within a screen, it would have enhanced the experience

Nice game though!

Very cute game! I love the premise and the gameplay is very satisfying. I love the music style too. All in all really well done!

Incredibly fun, unique take on a puzzle game

Only bug is sometimes the item won't correctly affix to where the placeable spot is but that's about it, very fun

Developer

definitely that is feature we want to polish for future versions! thanks for your feedback and for playing our game <3

Cool idea, it's nice to see a puzzle platformer in this jam for sure! Loved the intro sequence, it really adds a lot to the game and the theme of the jam itself, just overall great work :)

Developer(+1)

Glad you enjoyed it :)

Fun concept, the different items were also very intuitive if you've played a platformer before!
For the next game-jam, it might make more sense to focus on less levels, to make the experience even better, 10 levels would definitely have been enough I think

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, and for playing our game <3.

Nice game! Love the fact that you need to modify the level rather than playing it, Very fun game!

Developer

Great concept, I believe it is fun to play however, items were not showing in build mode (E). Looking forward to updated version :) 

Developer

There is a issue related to browser zoom where items won’t display correctly,if you reset your zoom to 100 and refresh it should resolve this issue

We are definitely going to fix that when the jam is over but for now it’s locked until after event! Thanks for the kind words and for giving our game a try <3

Great concept, but there were no items to drag.

I haven't rated yet in case I can work out what I am doing wrong

I like the concept ! Good job for game jam

Took many attempts to understand the right way to edit level. But after that it got interesting! Nice concept and something fresh!

The game was a bit buggy on my computer, but I think the concept is really good! For feedback:

- It would be helpful if grabbable objects had an outline when hovered over, so players can easily tell which objects can be moved. In my case, the switch button wasn't movable, but I wasn’t sure if that was intentional or a bug.

- I think the goal object should not be movable, otherwise, players might just place it next to themselves.  

Developer(+1)

Haha yeah, the goal is definitely not supposed to me moveable. We had fixed this at some point but then it broke again and we didn't know until after the jam deadline. Will definitely fix that soon though.

Thanks for playing and for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun game! So is the gate being moveable a bug or a feature?? I couldn't see the items when I first started the game so I just moved the gate lol, but it started to feel like cheating in the later levels lol so I'm not so sure lmao.

Developer

That's definitely a bug 😅 ... but at least you were able to use it to counter other bugs , so really nothing went wrong ;)

The mechanics are really well explained withoyt having text walls, and the idea is really cool. The visuals are also really cool.

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it :)
