Haha, the game is so fun. Having a mechanic which you can throw your arm and leg can make many creative puzzles. Wise choice.
Thank you, I'm really glad you thought it was interesting! And yeah, there are definitely a lot of possibilities for puzzles if I wanted to continue with it. Thanks for playing!
A really cool concept, the music fits well and the simplistic grafics make it easy to see what buttons and door are. I also like the little splash screen, telling you what the game is about. The control sceme takes a bit to get used to, but it's not too bad. A really nice entry! ^^
Thank you, I'm really glad you liked the concept. I know the controls aren't ideal, but that's about all I was able to do in the time I had, haha. The graphics probably could have had a bit more time too, although like you said, I think the simplicity kept it easy to see what was going on at least. Thanks for playing and commenting, I really appreciate it!
This is such a cool concept!! I absolutely love how you can throw your limbs and bring them back and use them as projectiles and weights and so on. I definitely see a lot of potential for this game. Would definitely play more. I got stuck at the level, I think it's 3rd or 4th, where you have the black door top right and 3 red switches. I was able to open the first two, and thought I could let go of my leg for that 3rd red button, but I guess I can't let go of a leg if I already let go of two arms?
Thanks, I really appreciate it! The 3rd level is a little harder, and I probably should have made that arm thing clearer. The idea was that you can't throw if you don't have arms, but that's probably not super obvious thinking about it now, especially when you can throw your last arm with itself, haha. In any case, thanks again for the reply, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
