| Oct 4 20:59:06 | Persistence | ♥ 5 | So, I'm conflicted on this one. There were a lot of thing I really liked, but also a lot that frustrated me. It was especially frustrating because I felt like the issues were getting in the way of a fundamentally good experience. What I liked: - I like block puzzles - The pixel art + music were both great - I liked the linked blocks mechanic - I really liked the "parallell rooms" mechanic Where I feel the experience suffered is by sticking too, much to the theme, I think this would be a much better game with no time limits. If I could just press space to cycle through the levels I would be able to stop and think, which is the headspace I want to be in when I'm playing a puzzle game. As-is, whenever I got a bit stuck I ended up having to spend half my time replaying the parts I already figured out instead of looking at the screen I was actually stick on, then rushing my experimentation to fit in the 10 second window. The other minor issue I had is that while I really like the pixel art (and so many tilesets!), sometimes it was not easy to tell at first glance what was a "button" and what was a "door". Using a more consistent style for these key pieces across levels would help a lot with that. | |

I played initially with the windows build, and the air indicator does not show for me. Screenshot 2022-10-04 231812.png |
| Oct 4 21:26:51 | 9m 46s | Low On Power | ♥ 4 | I didn't really understand the UI at the top of the screen. The battery bar going down makes sense, but there's two battery icons beside it too? And I have no idea what the percentage bar means. Art + sound were cool though. And I liked zipping about with the dash. |

| Oct 4 22:26:50 | 24m 13s | BUN-hop | ♥ 1 | Art style and polish level are awesome! I normally hate platformers where you need to jump just-far-enough-but-not-too-far, but I finished this one! |
