How does your game fit the theme?
This game is a little weird Sokoban RPG. However, instead of controlling the avatar to push the box, players actually control the map and move the walls to push different kinds of stuff on the map. In that case, the roles of an RPG Hero and a map are reversed. It's not the Hero that tries to save the world, but the world on the map itself tries to save the Hero.

Really fun! Great job.
Cool game, enjoyed it!
as someone else already said, this is definitely a Baba is You level of "i never thought this could be a game mechanic, but it totally makes sense once i play for 2 minutes" genius. incredible!
Smashed it, well done!
I must say I'm not really a puzzle game person, but I enjoyed playing your game and finished all levels!
Some of them were quite challenging and hats off for creating 16 levels. Well done
The game is way more fun then I expected it to be
Really solid concept. Some of the challenges broke my brain in a very satisfying way. Charming presentation as well. Great job!
The puzzles are great, but the theme idea is too simple and has been done multiple times.
Love the idea, and execution!
i would buy this
Amazing concept, art, and implementation! Very fun and unique game, 5/5 stars for me:)
Love Love Love it
Really really nice concept and execution of the level designs
Really enjoyable and cool concep
As a Baba Is You fan, I absolutely loved this! The game is extremely polished, the artstyle and music is of course wonderful, and there are many levels to enjoy, with each new mechanic introduced in the right order at the right times. I would love to see this game expanded upon... awesome work!
Really cool game. I loved the execution of this fundamentally simple mechanic in a way that really teases your brain in all the right ways - good job!
It was fun. I wish there were more levels. It would be cool if there was something else besides walls and doors that moves with map.
Very creative! I love it :D
Very good idea! There was bug with the characters clipping through the walls but other than that the game is very good.
Really fun!!! Would love to see a larger rpg made using this mechanic, no clue how that would work though haha.
