Awesome game, very good art and graphics, the sound effects were perfect. That last level had me stumped for a little bit but managed to finish. Amazing job!

Use of the limitation
The cost of every move in the game is that the ice cube (Melton) melts, and the tiles become slippery.

Very cool (pun not intended) and thought provoking concept. Made my brain woozy at the final level, haha. The presentation and music were fun as well.
The ice melting provides an interesting idea for the limitation (a cost per move), but I don't think there are many instances where you'd fail to solve a level because the ice completely melted. Some levels that require you to skate on the ice to save moves could provide a very interesting use of the limitation.

RaccooshipThank you for taking the time to play and comment! Glad you enjoyed your time :D
Yes! In hindsight, I probably should have focused on the melting challenges in the earlier stages. I like your idea of skating to save moves, I was actually thinking of the opposite (double punishment - you slide away and melt faster) so I did not code that in! You have a good eye for cool game design detail, which is clearly reflected in your submission!
Thanks again :)
Cool game, pretty interesting implementation of pauses during resetting the level when losing.

Cost of VigilanceOMG I love B-Cubed! Turning the cube into a melting block adds a great puzzle aspect, and fits right in with the theme in a clever way. Short & sweet, nice job!

Automaniac!I really like how you used the limitation to justify the puzzle (the water we leave behind and that makes things slippery is a great idea showing the consequences of our passage).
You could have incorporated the future theme through a story to justify it or with "robotic" assets or other kind.
That said, very good puzzle!
I like this kind of puzzles. I think I see the idea of a game jam... but it's not obvious.

Ticking WarrantyI love the puzzles, some of them were a bit challenging, and the game is visually pleasing, but the limitation needs to be incorporated more.

LOOP HOLES (MINI JAM 169)a very good puzzle game, but i don't see the jam's theme or limitation that much.
