Nice puzzle, that fit well with the them. The last puzzle seems to only admit one solution, but n fact there is several. Overall that was fun to play.
Cool game and nice visuals. The music honestly was painful to listen to for me so I'm glad there was an option to turn it off. I thought it was a fairly intuitive rule for winning, but than I got stuck on a puzzle and I had no idea why. overall good work on this, good puzzles, I only wish there were more explicit instructions.
I played your game twice, once before the jam started and once after. The second time I passed 2 more levels which makes me happy. As you said in another comment you do need a difficulty curve & level design in some of them but not bad at all. Also with the neon lights and all I was expecting something less calming for a background music.
It's an interesting concept, but I think I'm bad at puzzles like these :'D
First of all, I think that for the most part the art style is nice, not over the top but not boringly simplistic either. I also appreciate the addition of music toggle since after a while the music got on my nerves. +1 for making the title screen the first level as well. Not completely groundbreaking but you did it well. One gripe I did have was the perspective made it difficult to gage what button to press, sometimes I would press the wrong button even though I knew what direction I wanted to go because of the movement appearing diagonal from the view of the camera. An option to rotate the camera might have helped with that.
I got to a puzzle with three long blocks that were stacked. I thought I'd figured the puzzle out, but when I made it so all the pieces were connected, the game stuttered and then brought me back to the home menu :(
That aside, I think this is a pretty interesting game. I'll be honest, I didn't go back through all the puzzles after it reset me, so I can't say whether or not the puzzles would get more challenging, but I would hope so. It's a little weird how you can infinitely go out of bounds, at least on the main menu, but the R to restart prevents it from being a problem. I like the art and aesthetic - it's simple, and effective. The only artistic choice I'd question is the music - there's nothing wrong with it being minimalistic, but it's a bit goofy sounding, and takes me out of the game more than it puts me in.
Overall, great job!
thanks you for going to such detail.
The level you got reset on is the last level so you did not miss anything and a lot people faced that problem.
Im not that great with music but just tried doing it on own, hoping to improve over time (will take much more care to make music that amplify game in future)
Thanks again:D
I was a bit confused at first, then I figured it out how to play the game. But the music is a bit weird to me. Anyway, keep up the good work!
I gotta say the goal of what to do was a little confusing at first, but I figured it out eventually and it was fun to play around with! Just have some minor suggestions, like adding pause/quit buttons and to make the perspective of the blocks a little more clear. On level 3 (I think) I thought a block was floating when it really wasn't. But other than that, I think this game has a lot of potential and I am a fan of the neon art style! Good job my friend
Really nice looking game. I have to say though, my brain found it hard get to grips with the controls, might just be a me problem, something about isometric view and Arrow Keys just wasn't clicking haha. I got there in the end though! I also had the problem with the final level as someone else mentioned below. I was sure I was doing it right, it actually froze on one attempt, then I restarted the game, tried it again and it worked, maybe there's a small bug with the check on that level? But despite that, nice little game, looks nice, sounds nice and I like that you can just kinda wander off if you want.
Clean and nice ! Nice artwork, polish and well executed ! Nice puzzle game :) !
