Great aesthetic! And I loved the extra work you did to make the game feel like a late 90s windows app. Even though this kind of sliding block puzzle isn't my favorite type of game, I had a blast clicking through the menus and taking in the atmosphere. The stock sound effects were a hoot, too!

It did seem like there were a few stages where the boxes could wrap the screen in one horizontal line, but not another - it might help to add a visual indicator if this is intended.

Damn, that was cool. It was hard to get what game wanted from me, but when I got it...
Poor smily evil face.
I think I've broken the game a couple of times but still it was fun. Is quick movement dodging bullet is allowed? Well, that's how I have finished about 5 levels

Thank you! Yeah that actually is a solution for a couple of the levels haha. I'm pretty sure I used it for only 2 levels though so there may be something wrong there... also Im aware of a couple of issues but I couldn't recreate them so I thought it was just some random bug and I wouldnt do anything about them.

Nice game,  I like the Windows 98 presentation, it is fun to play.

I love how you imitate an old pc it s so cool and kinda impressiv, I am really bad at those type of thing but I still had fun on the one I did! (I loved exploring the options on the pcs but didn t really trusted  the bin lol )

Nice game !

I never played Undertale so it was for me a totally new game ! I like the concept and there are levels easier to explain new mechanics ! 

As other said, maybe add a pitch variation to your sweeping sound (when you spam it it can be annoying)

I like the artistic direction too :D
Good job !

You did a really good job with the vibe of the game, especially with making it feel like that one undertale minigame. I enjoyed my time playing the game, the only thing I’d change are some of the sound effects, maybe have the click sound have more variation to it or something.

This one was quite good. I love the Windows 98 vibe. 2 things i would add, though, are a reset level button and a hint system, as well as better explaining to the player how looping boxes around the grid works. overall, great job!

there actually is a reset button! You can find it under the game tab. I do however see how your other points might be beneficial.

okay I put a note at the top of the page telling people where the reset button is. hopefully that will be enough.

Nice game, love the Windows 98 presentation and aesthetic of it !  The small detail like sounds effects, bin, and popup really sell it.  I have hard times with puzzles but I still did quite a bit of levels so its well balanced.

Presentation is so fun you captured the Windows 98 vibe perfectly. Also the puzzles are really entertaining for how simple the premise is. Thanks for sharing :}

Well made and fun, I had fun rocking my brain.

It's a good game! I killed a smiley face and he turned into dust. And i sweeped the box away (Haha a reference to boxsweeper) .
