You know if someone told me a few days ago I'd spend more than an hour on playing a beetle pushing a ball of shit around, I'd probably have told them that they were crazy, but there's just something about rolling home that shows a sharp level of intelligence and good level design behind each stage. The bonus is on these minimal graphics? For this kind of game they don't matter whether you scale them up or not. The game is what it is and what it is happens to be a fun brain teaser again, about a beetle pushing a ball of shit around. Delightful and would recommend to anyone looking for a group of fun, well designed puzzles. Wish there was an oopsie button rather than a level reset to reverse one move. That's about it though.

Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad that you liked it
Yeah,  I thought about that "oopsie" button, but I was running out of time
If I make another puzzle game, that button will be the number one priority!

Thanks for your comment! :D

love the vibe with this, I'm a sucker for minimal/1-bit graphics! sound effects were nice too. my only complaint is that the objective size of each level is easy to miss, so I found that I often had to restart each level just because I missed the size. other than that, great stuff! :D

Thanks a lot for playing and leaving a comment! :D

Next time I'll make sure to polish that kind of detail, after all, knowing the objetive size is crucial to enjoy the gameplay
I'll learn from this and do my best next time!
