How does your game fit the theme?
Usually a player will provide input in the form of button pressed to play a game. Not in this game, here the inputs will be predetermined and this control is removed from the player. To solve each level the player must map each input to a command instead! Thanks to Anthony Gibson for QA

Great "clean" art that works really well to not obfuscate the goal. Nice work!

Channel Surfing

Love the simple yet effective art! The concept is pretty good too, it is a little difficult to understand what to do and the "execute" button is a little bit hidden, but once you get the hang of it it becomes a super interesting and satisfying game! Hope you will add more levels and polish it in the future! Good job!

LITERALLY Out Of Control

I am not able to play the game, the cube won't move.

When you've assigned every button to a command, make sure to press the Execute button in the bottom right corner. Sorry about not having a tutorial, I ran out of time xD

José (Joser) Gala Naranjo4 years ago

I can't figure out how to assign the buttons to the commands. I really want to play!

JoshuaGeorgeDeveloper4 years ago

Im glad to hear! You can drag and drop the commands onto the inputs in the top right corner. That should work!

Nice! Thanks for the help!

Are there only three levels!? I enjoyed it, I want more! Only one thing to complain about and is the sound, there is no sound or it is just me?

JoshuaGeorgeDeveloper4 years ago(+1)

Unfortunately yes :( I ran out of time right at the end otherwise I would have loved to add more levels and a tutorial. I actually did end up adding sound but I couldn't upload that build in time. Regardless I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for giving it a go!

Loved the third level! It really make me think wisely about my choices. There are still room for improvements but overall a great puzzle game (:

Having the order of buttons be predetermined, but setting what the buttons do is a neat take on the prompt, I really like the idea! So far as feedback goes, I'd like to see the game sped up a bit to reduce waiting. Otherwise, great work.

Welp, I finished the level 3

The concept is pretty clever! I want more levels, it is fun to solves.

I would speedup the animations I think.

Saving the game for later =)

Balance the Budget

I liked this quite a bit. Sad it was only three levels, but I think the third level was good enough to show off possiblities of what kind of levels you could make with this mechanic.

Controls Are Unresponsive, Captain

While I like the concept and gameplay, I think the game could really benefit from a tutorial at the start. Other than that nice game, good job!

Really unique concept and interesting puzzles. After level 3 I get a build error saying its looking for a next scene. Would be nice to have a formal menu and end screen
