Nice game, it reminds me of an old Cool Math Game, I forget the name of it. But its really creative and well done.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I really enjoyed the game concept and the puzzles in this game. As others have said, the players slides a bit too much but think this would make a great game with a bit of tweaking. Super impressed you did everything yourself including the music. Well done!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! Going to fix it and release a finished prototype soon! (Going to be made into a commercial game eventually).

Submitted

Great puzzles. I'm a fan of puzzles and I loved your ideas. Good job.

But the movement needs work, I spent minutes on a single jump that actually should not be that hard

Developer(+1)

Yea, I should’ve definitely reduced the slide. But I’m glad you liked the puzzles!

Submitted

I really liked the strategy as the levels went on, nice way of implementing the return journey theme. Only bit of feedback I couldn't read some of the colour font in the how to play section as it was a bit small to see and colour on the background hard to see against. Really fun to play and learn to master, Great job.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it!

Submitted

Movement is a tad slippery, but the puzzles are fun and well designed; they introduce the mechanics in an easy and clever way.  I only felt overwhelmed by the difficulty when level 10 loaded haha. Great game, good job!

Mine is also a puzzle platformer, in case you want to check it out.

Cool! Can’t wait!

Submitted

Cool premise! There are some really cool and clever puzzles here. Unfortunately they can be tough to complete because of some strange character movement implementation where your character continues to slide even after you stop moving. Looking forward to seeing an improved version in the future!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

i love how you need to think about the black box before you take decision for white, good  game, voted!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Character cannot be controlled easily. Moving and jumping correctly are the most important components, so controls should be improved. Graphics and level design can be improved. On the other hand, idea is good. Well done.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback dude!

Submitted

Great game! The sliding after you stop pressing the movement button was a bit irritating though.

Developer(+1)

Thanks!

Submitted

Amazing Game! Had fun playing it =D

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Nice little puzzle game and a cool take on the theme. Couple of tweaks to make the player controller a little less slippery and you have quite a nice game on your hands!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Fun game! only thing I didn't like was the slide after the jump.  

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

you can't win

Developer

You can, but it’s extremely difficult, and I should’ve made level 10 much easier

Submitted

Nice game, the controls fill a little bit weird

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Great take on the theme & focus! I had a nice relaxed time playing this. I'm unfortunately bad at puzzle games but the slow incline into harder levels made it easier for me to play! Keep up the good work :)

Developer

 Thanks so much! Looking forward to your game as well!

Cute game and fun interpretation of the focus/ theme!  I love chill puzzle games and the music is a good tune that you don't mind listening to on repeat.  
Edit: SUPER fun after I figured out the reset puzzle button!  :)

My suggestions and issues I had:
-Make the "human" a different color than the stones.  I didn't realize he wasn't a block until after a few tries, so making him maybe "flesh" colored or giving him an idle breathing animation would show people he is the other character.

Developer

There is a reset button which is r actually, and thanks! Can’t wait to try your game!

Submitted

OH so sorry!!  My bad!! I didn't see that - so that's totally on me :)

Developer(+1)

If you want you could play it a bit more now that you know. You don’t have to, just saying.

Submitted

I totally will!

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

Fun puzzle game!

The movement is very slippery, I was stuck on level 6 for a while and got so annoyed. The fact that I can't pull a box out from a corner is infuriating haha

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Can’t wait to try your game as well!

Submitted

Cool concept and mechanic! One problem I had though was that the movement was really slippery and made the character hard to control, leading to some otherwise great levels feeling frustrating to complete. Otherwise, really good concept that could definitely be expanded on!

Developer

Thanks dude! Definitely going to expand on this idea for my first commercial game! Not sure when I’ll start on it though. Can’t wait to try your game as well!

Submitted

It's a neat concept! One small problem though was that some blocks kept getting stuck in corners and could not be pushed. Also when I stop pressing a key the character continues to move for a bit. Otherwise, good work on this. 

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks!l for playing! Definitely trying yours as well!

Submitted

I liked your game! The level progression is smooth, great steep!

The concept is really interesting and fun, and could be expanded a lot with some tweaks in the player's movement (feels too slippery and low responsive sometimes), with better graphics and more worked music!

Overall good job! Keep it up!

I'd love you try out my game and tell in what I can improve as well so I can get better :D!

Developer

Thanks so much! And I will check out your game as well!
