Fun game idea! At first I was confused on how to get the lil guy to the cupcakes, but after figuring it out it was nice that he didn't just follow the optimal path and took the wonky routes instead ^^

Developer

thanks :)

I liked this a lot. I liked that he was inconsistent, so you had to really try to force him to get the cupcakes. Nice job!

Developer

thanks :)

Nice game! I found the concept very interesting, blocking Bert from the end until they get the cupcakes, but you always need a path to the end so you make these long snaking corridors. Making sure the maze always needs a valid solution was a nice solution to the player just blocking off the exit! I found that on level 6, the entire grid would be black and once you reached the end, since there were no cupcakes, it'd say game over. Not sure if the bug is just on my computer since other comments say it worked on level 6... But yeah, I really enjoyed this game's puzzles!

Developer

Thanks for the nice words and the good input - will work on that!

Yea I messed up the block generation a bit - sorry for that :D

Kind of confusing, since it would be hard to tell where he would run and removing blocks seemed a little inconsistent, the only level it seemed to work for was level 6. Cool idea though!

Developer

Definitely needs more work on the pathfinding :) Thanks for testing it out!

it works now and is pretty good

Bert's an unpredictable fella! He also ran through the blocks! Good idea though, I could see it being quite a puzzle game with more work :)

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! :)

Bert ran through the walls for me a few times lol.  He's quite a powerful little fella!

A very interesting game. Liked the idea. But I did not fully understand by what rules the npc runs.

Congratulations!
