if the new flowers are just the old flowers but with more pollen, there is little to motivate me to progress in that discovery direction. the discovery aspect needs to be creative and have variety, otherwise there is no motivation, no intermediate goals motivating progress.
I immediately experimented with the mechanic and found that gnetrgf gung ner'g ivfvoyr qba'g pbhag naq nernf haybnq vs lbh nea'g va gurz naq gurer nea'g obkrf ba gnetrgf va gurz. I found this out in the first level with a target in the special area and used it to my advantage beyond that point. not sure if I found out too early, it makes most of the early levels easy.
what's rude about the last level is that you can't prevent yourself from pushing a box on you first move because there is two unknowns above you. this move could potentially alter solvability.
there are non-puzzle puzzlescript games you know. like that virus sim someone made. The intentional lack of a puzzle tag on a game like this would imply that it is more of a story-game.
I've been thinking about wall-stuckness recently, and the situation near the top-left golem is my favorite example of this. especially with how it is modular, I love it.
also, stop giving people hints, the fun will last longer if more thinking is required.
at most, only give hints about how to discover/notice various mechanics like "notice how you turn a different color when over the target" or "try pressing x when near a wall". ideally the gameplay itself should act as a hint (the game I found did the worse at this was that centipede game from the confounding calendar)
recommendation for how to use save/load system? it seems more like a bad undo system than a save system. every time I want to change my save I need to restart from the last one.
use what you learned in previous levels. unless this is the first level with that mechanic, then use what you learn from experimentation in that level.
