Excellent presentation, I'm a sucker for good pixel art (if my own game didn't give that away). A great mix of ideas that you got to work well well with one another

Interesting game! Art and music perfect. I have some difficult to get the orientation correct, but maybe it's only my problem. Good job guys!!!

The Good OverlordFrom the very beginning this game was a work of genius. Like peering into the Mona Lisa, each second of interaction revealed another deep intricacy that only the moment before had seemed just out of reach. It was if the makers of this game had reached inside me and seized upon my very essence. The music, like a throbbing siren calling to me, the call of the void! The commentary on the human condition is second to none. In a sense we all are little gnome men trapped in confusing dungeons just looking for ways out as the ground crumbles beneath our feet. At some point we realize that stagnation is death! You want to talk about roles reversed! It was as if my roll has been transformed from player to reyalp. What more can one say? Everyone involved with this has slayed to the highest degree one can slay. So I say again, SLAY!
At one hand this is really cool and challenging, at the other it constantly makes you mistake which way you are supposed to turn. Like you had the right plan in mind but then press a key and the board turns the other way than you imagined. I think the arrows in the UI could better portray how the board will turn. You could say that these mistakes are main part of gameplay but I feel like they add a bit too much frustration. Well put together game, congratz

Tilted DungeonWhoa, I wish I knew that! Seems like a great way to fix the problem! I guess playing with the keyboard was the issue. I think I'd even recommend disabling it, or better - making it so that on button press it does the little tweak to show where it will move and the board turns on key release after press :)
Cool concept! The lvl design is quite challenging and you got really cool and polished aesthetics!

Space SwappersThis is really good, even though I got confused easily by the movement lol. Also the music is amazing too, kinda reminds me of crypt of the necro dancer.

Forest FireReally great concept and execution, the pixel art was sharp and the music was catchy. Whoever was in charge of level layout has megamind brain, those levels were super tough. Great entry

Deep WatersThe turning was a little disorientating and took some time getting used to, but having the small turn helped get me used to it. Otherwise, fun puzzle game!

Results PleaseAs someone else who made a level rotating game, I gotta say, this was really well executed and really challenging. Great job!

Topsy-TurvyThe art and game are really cool, but I found the controls pretty confusing and often turned the level in the opposite way I intended. I didn't know there was a preview mode.

Chicken Revolution!Just awesome, very polished, interesting and fun! Music and art are awesome, congrats to the team!

Home Sweet DungeonNice take, gorgeous presentation. The grid rotation added to what direction characters would move were a bit confusing at first trying keyboard only; But the mouse hover preview helped.
Would be perfect for mobile - I could see myself playing it a lot on a bus stop.
