The game mechanic is very well exploited. The level desgin is really good, I really like the difficulty progression curve and all the ways you have to use the bombs. Maybe sometimes the timings are very short. I got stuck on this level:

Nice game, good job!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

Hint: lure the guard to the right then double jump up the left platform when he's down.

I was really surprised with how the idea of the game worked. I had real fun while playing, sometimes it was hard enough to leave me thinking for a while.

Developer

I'm glad you had fun! I'll be uploading an update (including ~10 more levels) as soon as the jam is over. I hope you can check it out!

I like the idea of the game, it's kind of reminding me of the games which I played when I was younger. I'm not too sure what is the relevance to theme but that's just might be me, so don't get me wrong. I really enjoyed playing the game and it was fun, and I liked the music :) (just to let you know, I got stuck on the level with yellow plates :) )

Developer

Thank you! The theme is in the limitation (only two bombs) which I intended to make players come up with creative solutions (I've already seen one that I didn't think of) 

Hint: Place a bomb on each of the plates farthest from the door then detonate both at the same time while standing on the third plate. Good luck!

I'm so good at ballancing cubes on my head!

Funny game, the things you can do with two simple bons are so full of variations and that means great level design. Too bad the game window is so tiny, so I kept clicking outside the window. Unfortunately, I got stuck and didn't get the artifact.

Developer

Thank you! I'll add an option to play in full screen when I update the game after the jam. Some puzzles are hard to solve and execute (Level 13 for example). I'll tweak them to make them a bit easier.

Nice game. The bombs have a wide array of uses and the puzzles are interesting. The view window is a little to small though. also I got stuck on the level with the red guy.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I decided on a small room to make it playable even in older computers. Perhaps I should have added an option to play fullscreen.

Hint: Red guards can't be killed but they can be distracted. However there's a bug in enemy movement where they will (in rare occasions) face the wrong direction. I've already found a fix but I can't update until the end of jam.

Thank you for the hint I'll see if I can get further tomorrow.

Really nice idea, I hope you had as much fun making the game as I had playing it! :D Which programming language / engine did you use?

P.S.: I´d highly appreciate if you´d check out my game since I don´t have that much votes on it yet :)

Developer

Thank you! I actually spent about one third of my time experimenting with what I can do with two bombs. I'm glad you had fun! 

I used GameMaker Studio 2.

I'm currently playing through and rating the submissions. I'll rate your game next.
