The puzzles are really fun. But the camera was frustrating. 

I had to leave the camera in "Free move" because it was the easier to focus on the puzzle. 

The rotation motion with the center position moving wasn't helpful. I had to constantly re-adjust the camera to concentrate on the puzzle.

But everything else about it was great. I really love the walls opening up and wind particle effects. And the mechanic itself it simple but incredibly challenging.

And I wouldn't scrap the 45 degree rotation. I found it very useful in examining the play space which gave me a sense of control that I wouldn't have otherwise. I hope that's helpful.

Either way, nice work! Would love to see more to this!

I couldn't hear any audio at all, on mac. The concept is real interesting, but I struggled to get it down long corridors with the camera angles if the box got stuck halfway.

Thanks for the feedback.

If this game had a relaxing soundtrack, It would be my favorite game of the jam. One problem I had with it was the camera it wasn't going were i wanted it go. Good job on the game though.

Great concept but the camera made me pretty sea sick. Otherwise this has some good potential.

Developer

Sorry about the camera, but thanks for playing!

Really great game, love the concept! Like other people are saying though, the camera itself is the only thing holding this game back. Still really great overall though

Developer

Thanks! Sorry about the difficult camera.

Good game, love the style, and the concept is cool and the level design works, but it's hindered by a somewhat clunky camera. So if you sort that out, you've got a great game on your hands! And maybe a little sound-design as well. Good job!

Developer

Thanks!

Good idea. Clean level design. Levels takes a long time to complete because the camera is itself a bit 'out of control' :).

Thanks for playing. Sorry about the camera. It was one of the main things I was trying to fix before the jam ended but I ran out of time.
