(x/post) Kind of a (mostly) Marble Blast game with a couple rule-changing levels in the middle.  I'll be honest, this one is pretty rough, but I hope it was a good learning experiment.  I feel like it needed work in feeling more crunchy and the movement/camera system (or lack of one) hampered a smooth playthrough.  It might've actually been a case of too wide of a focus and in that case I recommend you focus on what you're strong at instead.  Keep it going!

Pros:

  • Interesting concept for a puzzle game
  • Simple and clear mechanics

Cons:

  • Kinda drops the concept for the puzzle game
  • No audio

Misc:

I liked the idea of having the mechanics change from level to level, becoming more limited as you progress, which would force you to consider other ways of completing the same or similar tasks. Unfortunately this idea isn't explored very far, and the various levels feel more unrelated than as if part of a progression. The lack of audio is also a bit of a bummer, even having a simple song playing in the background makes the game far more immersive. I enjoyed the various Hanks imagery plastered about.
