Fun puzzle game. I like that the timer doesn’t run out, but instead ticks, because I like taking my time when doing puzzles.

I think the art style is good, but I don’t like the background moving, it made me slightly dizzy.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for the support!

Sorry to hear about your experience, I will consider to add an option to turn off the background movement.

Great and innovative game with puzzles that grow in challenge quite nicely.
And a fellow GDeveloper too.

Awesome game dude <3

Nice puzzle game :)

Nice little game. Had fun trying the different puzzles. Some minor things to improve:

  • Not sure if it was a problem on my side, but the first time I launched the game the arrow keys were not working. I tried everything. After reloading the page and starting the game again it worked. I have no idea where it came from.
  • I would have prefered if the shape moves in the grid instead of free floating. In this way you could have avoided that you sometimes get stuck a bit on the edges.

Besides that, I really liked the game!

Developer

Thank you so much for your support, Stiggstogg! Glad you able to play the game! I will keep in mind of your suggestion.

Very nice music and UI. Graphics in levels are also interesting. Puzzle might be quite "linear" but enjoyed it anyway ! 

Developer

Thank you for your support, Nain-nain! Always glad you enjoyed the game.

The wall and the floor can be more distinguishable.

I like the music choice you choose for puzzle solving.

Im just brute-forcing things and I can still solve the puzzle. which is great. 

Otherwize it is a pretty great puzzle game.

Developer

Thank you for your support, gregwoodsfrontier! I'm glad you like my game. I will consider you suggestions for more color variations.

Good music and design! I just wish some of the levels were harder, because most of the solutions are very linear and straightforward. more branching paths and more opportunities to screw you over and have to reset would be nice. Also, as you probably got the memo, one of the levels is unbeatable, so make sure to playtest the entirety of your game before submitting!

Also, incorporating Time as a mechanic with more substance would have been great, maybe give a time limit to the levels, or get creative?

Thank you for your support and suggestions, BuyMyBeard! I've already closed the issue on GitHub and currently awaiting for the voting period to end before I update the Itch.io release.

Puzzle games are just my jam! This game is so polished and coherent, it's amazing! The music is so chill and cosy.

I got stuck in the following level, and for the life of me, I can't seem to grasp how I'm supposed to beat it!?

I HAVE to return later to give it another shot haha!

Awesome job, you have made a great game!

Developer

Thank you for your support, duendue! It has come to my attention that you may found a glitch as it is supposed that there's a Red C at the position where you begin in that level. Can you try play the game here and see if you can solve the level successfully? Here's the link: https://gd.games/ikmalsaid/timeshifter

I analyzed the level, and whatever you do, It is unsolvable. you'd have to reach the left corner as a red shape, but reaching that corner is impossible as a red shape and there are not red switches in that level.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for your input, BuyMyBeard! I have suggested players who had difficulty to solve Level 11 to try the game build on another site https://gd.games/ikmalsaid/timeshifter

the timer doesn't add much, (but still nice to have)

otherwise, i really enjoy the game. it's nice to have a game that give me headaches in the good way.

Developer

Thank you for your support! Glad you like to play puzzle games. The timer is more like a timer for yourself and to set a record time of your own.

Good game! Nice level design and graphics. I like the calm music. It's a very relaxing game!

Thank you for your support, KucingKode! I enjoyed your game too and a very good luck to both of us in the jam.

Good puzzle game. Nice graphics and I like the calm music. I hope there is level selection so we don't have to start over from first level. I got stuck on a level with blue C, blue C block, and red C block at top left corner. That's a tricky level. Well done.

Developer

Thank you for your support! I'm glad that you are satisfied with my game. I will take note of your suggestion.

Nice puzzle game. I’m always impressed by the level design of the puzzles in this kind of games. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for your support! I hope you have a pleasant experience playing my game.

Relaxing puzzler with good level design. The levels quickly get harder. There does not seem to be a lot of variation. Anyway great game!

My only complaint is that GDevelop seem to use massive computation power almost killing my poor Mac despite the very simple graphics and sound. This of course is not the fault of the developer(s).

Developer

Thank you for your support! I made this game to be relaxing hence the ability for players to master the game well. For the engine, can I know what Mac are you using?

Submitted

My Mac specs:

Processor: 2,3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5,

Graphics: Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB,

Memory: 8 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3

but it doesn't matter what type of Mac I am using. This game should be able to run on the original Apple 1 from 1976 without a problem.

Simple, nostalgic puzzle game with some clever level design thrown in. I do wish it had more to do with the theme though, the timer doesn’t really have any influence on the rest of the game.

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you for your support, Exospud! Yeah, the timer only measures the player's personal best time for each level and my take on this approach is to make a relaxing game where players can take their time to play.
