Dig the retro color and aspect of the game.  I had the hots for Carmen Sandiego as a kid.  I agree with others some having to sort threw, or try different items would be cool.  the only bug I encountered was if i didn't place the item right in the blue square it wouldn't snap and would fall threw the floor.  maybe increasing the snap distance a tiny bit on the wall and adding in a larger floor collider that goes past the wall would help prevent this so you could pick the item up and try again other than that one thing it worked flawlessly. very good!

Carmen Sandiego was an 80`s thing before it was a 90's thing youngin! lol! Cool that you incorporated it into your game though. I agree with the other comment that you probably should have had some other items in the room to pickup and see which one is the right one. Short, sweet, and right on the money good job.

true, I was born in the late 80s so I only knew it in the 90s lol

It would have been more fun if there were more objects in the room and we had to find the ones that we needed to put on the wall. Great job with the teleport movement and grabbing.

I wanted to have a few red herrings but I didn't get the chance

Nice little escape room game.  It was cool that you incorporated references from your childhood--the only one I knew was C.S.  The retro music was cool.  A little more of a puzzle element would make this more challenging/fun.

thanks, it was my first puzzle game, realise i need to learn more about level and puzzle design.
