Interesting use of the windows.

I love puzzles, you came up with and created a wonderful concept. I think if you add a few more levels and training, it will be just great. good entry

I’ve seen multiple games with quite the same concept (moveable windows to make platforms), but this one is one of my favorite! love the controls and especially the “copy” mechanic

Although a little difficult to control, it sublimated Limitation well and was very enjoyable. Good work!

This game is great not only for a mini jam but as a potential full game, great idea😁. My favourite until now.

P.D.: Sometimes if you put a window over another you may get a bit stuck

Cool idea! Well reveals both the limitation and the theme of jam. The only negative is that it is inconvenient to play due to the fact that the windows are large and when they overlap each other, no obstacles are visible, and dragging is inconvenient. Because of this, I closed the game at level 6. Otherwise, this is one of the best jam games out there.

Thanks for playing! Yes it's really fiddly, not enough time to fix the issues with overlapping. Also, level 6 is actually the end so good job completing it!

This is an excellent use of the limitation. Great simple idea and executed very nicely. If this was taken further with time I imagine there might be different windows that can/can't overlap, or different obstacles to reach the location. Well done!

Oh and I'm also learning how to scale UI and game assets properly for different resolutions, I haven't quite worked it out yet!

Thank you!
