I really love the concept! This game feels like it would be awesome for speedrunning! The character was a little slippery so I had trouble placing blocks anywhere but down, but other than that I had a good time! I thought the background being a deadzone for your power was very intuitively conveyed! Just wish it had gamepad support!

The graphics in the game are cute, the music really hooked me, it's very gentle and beautiful. It's a pity there is no pause function. The mechanics with the block are very cool, but requires improvements in the form of some kind of particulars, their limitations, etc.
I liked the block placing mechanic. It made it feel like I had more liberty in deciding how I wanted to complete the level
That sucks :( We only realized how to fix that bug an hour after submissions closed unfortunately, but I'm glad you got to experience a lot of the game before it happened to you
EDIT: Just saw your playthrough of the game, and surprisingly, the screenshots actually aren't concept art! They're later section of the game, but it's pretty tricky to make it that far
Really love the block mechanic, and how many shortcuts you can find, but I didn't know I couldn't place blocks on the dirt tiles, but thankfully I figured it out before quitting lol. But overall, I really enjoyed it!
This game is very cute. I like the 6 blocks you can place to help you get up as well. at first I didn't know there was specific spots you couldn't place blocks and just thought the game mechanic broke but I did figure it out in the end. I played for about 20 minutes before rage quitting. nice job
