Took me some time to realise I needed to do things to the level, like edit the level so that I can clear it. Nice puzzler making use of map/level editing!

Congrats on the game's release!

idk how I forgot to mention for this long but the player sprite is from this https://zegley.itch.io/2d-platformermetroidvania-asset-pac

nice animation XD

adding platform is a cool idea too

Some very interesting concepts here, I could see with a bit more time this being very special!

Developer

Thank you!

Have seen some people a bit confused by how to beat it so here's how to beat it (only use this if you're stuck though)

1)  Place a block at the bottom of the unjumpable wall, to the bottom left of the lowest gradiented block.
2) press ';' then 'r', noticing which tile moves upon pressing 'r', put a block underneath said tile (gradient tiles are sand, sand falls as many blocks as it can until it hits something)
3) Notice how it's currently impossible to get through, go to the y line of the map which prevents you from going through, press 'v' and while pressing v press the right arrow)
4) Like the previous one, however here you need to find the right y *and* x. find the tile in which you can access both the row and collumn, then press and hold the v key, along with the up then right arrow to solve it
5) The first of the 'harder' puzzles, for this one move to the air tile to the bottom left of the blue thing, and v+up arrow, then go up one row and v+right arrow. if vortexes are in any way changed you instantly leave the map editor.
6) No hint for this one

really like the idea here, could be really cool with more work on the level design and some audio...

Really interesting idea but couldn't find a way to continue after the second screen

Submitted

Good concept, but difficult to control

Developer

Yeah :pensive:
Ik I prob should have added a 'count another click after [x] time' thing (like pico-8 has ig) but i ended up not having enough time to implement it + I got so used to just spamming the arrow keys it stopped being an issue for me :sweat_smile: . I'll try to remember not to put it off now the jam's over :3

Developer

...fuck the end screen has a typo T-T

Submitted

Cool concept!

I jumped through the first gap but didn't manage to find what I need to do in the second part. :/

For the second puzzle, reset the map then place a block below the (now back in it's original position) sand tile :3

I really like this concept for a puzzle-platformer, and congratulations on the level design. I definitely got the “ah-ha moment” when figuring out the solution!

It did take me a long time to figure out how the shifting controls worked and how the energy was being consumed, but the puzzle solving kept me trying to understand it.

I also would have enjoyed a little more of a platforming challenge to complete the gameplay. But overall a fun game!

Glad you enjoyed it! I was worried the puzzles were too easy :sweat_smile:

I will try add a couple harder (platformer-wise) rooms post jam :3 though I also feel like with the movement as it is, making properly challenging gameplay will be hard :p, maybe I could celetestify lol

Submitted

Cool concept! wasn't able to shift the map though :(

Developer

press 'v' then while holding it press an arrow key :3 (sorry, will prob change the tutorial message post-jam lol)

Submitted

ohh now I was able to! thanks :)
