I enjoyed the level design a lot. Reminded me a bit of Baba is you

Developer

Thank you!!!

One of my favorite games in the jam, great work! Adding undo would be nice if you decide to update it post-jam : )

Developer

Definitely on the to-do list, I was scrambling to get it implemented but couldn't finish it in time!

Straightforward and fun! The puzzles are enjoyably challenging and the visuals are excellent

Developer

Thanks for playing! :)

Love the visuals and it is a very polished game, loved it!!

Developer

Thank you for playing and leaving a comment!

Good stuff! finished it. I'm surprised someone actually found a solid puzzle game idea for this theme. Presentation is nice too, getting some Baba is You vibes with these wobbly lines. :)

Developer

Thank you for playing !! : - )

Easily in the top 20! One of the smartest games I've seen in this jam! My humble congratulations for capturing the essence of the theme this much. Every level was handcrafted with extreme accuracy. You really got an eye for puzzle levels, and for what Mark usually says: the a-ha! moment! Bravo! Full marks on this!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! The "aha" moment is what I was chasing!

Submitted(+1)

This game looks and feels good to play. Really reminds me of Baba Is You. Some of the puzzles were not very intuitive though, or relied on trial-and-error. I would have liked to be able to reset a puzzle from within the level rather than having to exit out and go back in. This is a strong start for a puzzle game though and could be something really special, solid premise and great start. 

Developer

Thanks for playing! You can use "R" to reset a puzzle at any time! I definitely plan to flesh it out into a larger game! I use too many exclamation points! :)

The presentation and puzzles are really good and I found the hints really helpful. Awesome game!

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad to hear the guide is being used and was worth making! :)

Submitted(+1)

Super clever puzzles out of very simple mechanics. The puzzles were tough, and I admit, I used the hints, which were very nice of you to include. But even after receiving a hint or peeking at the solution (level 5), I still felt like the puzzles were fair. Really well designed!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad to hear your getting use out of the guide, I wasn't sure if anyone was noticing it!

Submitted(+1)

Love the visuals! gameplay is also really polished. Great game overall! A tutorial / how to play in-game would've been nice though

Developer

Noted, thanks for playing!!

Fun little puzzler with awesome presentation :) (I enjoyed the level titles especially!)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing, the level titles were one of my favourite parts of development. Funny story, I through a few titles that I liked in the code, then I meant to come back and put in my best puns, but never got around to it. Such is Game Jams. More titles for when I expand the game!

Submitted(+1)

It's a simple concept but that's executed so well! The game got some really clever puzzles that forces you to really think but never feels unfair! 

Also love the Stevens Sausage Roll's looking hands on the character hahah!

Awesome Work! :D

Developer

Thank you for playing! I hadn't heard of Steven's Sausage Roll, I might pick it up next time I'm looking for a new puzzle game!

Submitted(+1)

Aah but yeah it's good! Actually learnt about it from one of GMTK's videos hahah!

Submitted(+1)

Fantastic graphics and really challenging puzzles with lots of aha moments. Also like how numbers are just increasing, once you understand that it’s easy to predict outcomes. Is level 5 winnable though?

Developer

Thank you for playing! Level 5 is beatable, if you'd like some hints (or the full solution) I added a guide to the game's page in the Development Log section (right above Comments).

Great puzzles and mechanics. It was fun and challenging. Definitely, one of the best games i played so far today :) Great work!

Developer

Thankyou! :)

This game has probably the best puzzle design I've ever seen and even though the graphics are very simplistic, they fit the game and remind me of the baba is you art style.  There really isn't much to improve on this game besides maybe more content and an undo button, but I see that a lot of people have already suggested that. Overall, great game! -Sincerely, Henry_Hamster

Developer (2 edits)

Thank you, I appreciate the kind words and feedback! I am planning to make more content and an extended version of the game, I have a lot of fun ideas for new mechanics and levels! If your interested in being notified of a new release give me a follow :)

Edit: missed the word follow when I first typed the comment.

Submitted

:)

Developer

lol meant to say follow, idk how I missed the word haha.

Managed to get to level 5 so I'm feel quite proud of myself. The difficulty curve was definitely higher than expected. I wished there was an undo button but I know how hard that can be to implement. Overall, a unique take on the "roll dice around to match the side" idea

Developer

I was scrambling to implement undo, but wasn't able to get it working bug-free in time! Thankyou for playing and giving feedback, level 5 is the toughest imo! 

Submitted

Fun little brain teaser of a game! Take no pride in admitting Level 2 had me stumped but I managed Level 4 instead so I still have some pride left.

Developer

Haha glad it didn't take all your pride! The difficulty curve may have been a bit steep! Thanks for playing :)

I love this game ! One of the best I have seen so far !

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
