custom mechanic idea: thin walls. they block movement in certain directions, but more importantly, if you push a composite block (or lbhe bja gnvy) into them from the non blocked direction, it will be cut. And they would just look like a rouge wall border.
a simple yet effective idea. and I dont see any spaghetti code lurking within, as aposed to my other idea, which was very spaghettifying.
This is one of the best puzzle games I have ever played. I even have a new mechanic idea, cross blocks. the way they work is simple, they are a pushable block that you can pass through as the Nuworm. but when used in a bigger worm, instead of bending normally, things keep the same relative possitions to the block, basically, if you have a strait tail behind it, the tail will not be able to bend. and if something would hit a wall from rotating, it falls off, but it can get caught on stuff when moving forwards, T bends can also maybe happen, and would be mostly similar, but the Nuworm wont change directions within them, to prevent any softlocks, (although the Nuworm outside of blocks could be used for ice puzzle nonsence
This game has 1 major flaw. That turns it from fun to infuriating. No room for error. Get hit once and you have to reset the entrie room. which is especially bad for those projectile shooting enemies, with how fast they shoot.
the part where you fall in the hole is WAY to hard. as the player's hitbox is bigger than the sprite, making dodging basicaly impossible against a homing enemy in a small area
honestly, the only bad hint was for the panel slightly to the top right. as the L looks like an i because its lowercase. I had to copy paste the hint into google to know it was an L. for some I had to loo up the spelling, but thats more from English being dumb
