Wow, this was such a cool puzzle! Never seen anything like that made in bitsy! I got stuck at one point and had to pause the video, so you might see a little hiccup mid-way through, but wow, please give this game a try, it's very good!
Wonderful little game, clever puzzles with minimal elements. Nice, relaxing atmosphere but still pretty challenging at parts (I almost stopped playing when I couldn't figure out how to get to the southwestern key, but I'm glad I didn't - the final section was very well done, too). Recommended!
I really enjoy these minimalist puzzle games. You are dropped into a world without knowing where to go, what to do and by interacting with the world understand some of the rules that might allow you to delve further into it. I wont spoil much here as its a very short game and discovering how your simple controls (you can only move and rewind) are used for puzzle solving. While it doesnt offer a deep experience, you can easily just play it for yourself (even in the browser) as a refreshing dose of Indie Gaming. 3/5
I must say I quite enjoyed this little adventure. It is a really well-designed puzzle game, and experiencing it at one sitting made for a perfect break from my everyday responsibilities. I also appreciate the reference to a classical structure of the narration from the east. I had no idea about kishōtenketsu, but finding it out was, for me, quite fun.
Love this game, it's so cute!! My favorite one was the bush-clearing one because it was so satisfying to watch the path appear. It took me a few tries to get the bridge one because I kept going too far and accidentally pushing them off the side lol. The rock-pushing one was definitely the hardest-- once you push it too far, you have to start from the beginning again!
Thank you for sharing your creation! Also, you have a very cute blog :)
got this as part of the BLM pack and adored it. i did the rock-pushing puzzle and the bridge-making puzzle before briefly getting stuck, but felt an overwhelming sense of joy when i made it into the brush-clearing puzzle and beyond. thank you for this game!!!
Wow, I really love this game. Its very peaceful and captures the early Zelda feel of exploring the Japanese countryside without resembling it too much. Somehow this truly evokes the nostalgic feeling of a child exploring nature.
Do you happen to have an up to date link to your blog as I would love to read about the subject more.
Thank you very much for this nice comment! I'm glad you linked it to old Zelda games as they were one of my inspirations for this, so i'm happy that it shows without being too similar.

Loved it!
How did I miss this for 5 years? Have long thought Sokoban and a maze could combine for a good game. This one is an excellent example. Thanks.
Fun little Sokoban
Very cool puzzles
i loved this game, so comfy and the puzzles were all very engaging and clever for the limitations !! one of my favourites now
I love this game

Wonderful game! I had a great time solving the puzzles, and game's sounds and visuals are perfect!
It was so satisfying solving all those puzzles and the ending was similarly great. Thanks for a good game!

An enjoyable game, although I'm stuck on the rock-pushing puzzle now, I think there's a mechanic I'm not noticing or something
Such a fun little game! Got as part of the BLM pack. Thanks for making and donating it to a good cause!
I really liked this! Definitely gave me a Zelda vibe as well, but it's equally as much its very own!
istg this was so much fun lmao its great
5/5 would play again.
Helps me relive the time of going outside. Good job!
It's pretty much Sokoban.
