It seems I did something wrong, because the stone face did not move. But I tried again, restarted the game and now everything is fine. The dialogue is annoying, but the idea is interesting. The art and sound design are well done.

Of course, I've played games like this before. I think this one is one of the best. Minimalistic but beautiful art; ability to move the map; some cool mechanics (for example, I can change the direction of the throw) — this makes the game attractive. The music and sounds are also done very well, they fit so harmoniously with the gameplay. The strongest aspect of the game: the tutorial. It's done right. This is how tutorials in games should be (not stupid dialogues)! The difficulty of the levels increases smoothly and slowly, which is also very cool. I admire the game design of this game.
The premise balancing mechanics are interesting. But they need some thought. The level design ruins the idea: it's too hardcore and not optimized for these mechanics. The enemies seem completely useless... There are no sounds, which affects the feeling of responsiveness. Overall, it would be great to try to turn this prototype into a full-fledged game.
It's can't be skipped, that's the most annoying thing. It's like school: the teacher tells you boring crap for a long time, and then you have to take an exam on that crap. The game design of most prototypes here is school or elements of it. It kills the fun. I think players just tolerate it, write hypocritical reviews, and then you see the low scores. A simple first level with hints is the best learning option, not a boring school. Seriously, the dialogue sucks, unless it's a visual novel.
Well... I thought I was doing something wrong. Then I watched the video and realized the game really is boring. The dude has a sword in the screenshots, but it seems like I have to endure too much boredom to get it. The art is beautiful. But the level design it's fail...
I wish I could write something more pleasant for you. I just don't appreciate the hypocritical, fake feedback for trying to promote a submission, as always happens at jams.
Good luck.
