Cool!

I loved the minimalist graphical style. A really nice combination of retro Atari and neo physics.

This is really well made! You've mastered the core mechanic, now just expand on it and add more puzzles and this will be a really awesome game!

Great game, but it's so short! The ending was AWESOME. :D

Nice! The block physics feels really solid, except trying to get the blocks into 1-block-high gaps early on. Good puzzle design. Please expand this, I want to play more :)

I liked the minimalist graphics. The core mechanic is pretty interesting, and I did like how the physics were different to allow for crazy stacking solutions to problems. Good work!

Nice gameplay, played it till the end!

athanazio 2011-05-03 02:37

wow just can't stop playing :P

great example of how powerful, solid mechanics trumps complex graphics. Let this be a lesson to us all.

haqu 2011-05-03 07:33

great game!

tomk32 2011-05-03 09:43

Great one and I'd love to see more levels.

It was amazing. And the ending was just so perfect ! <3 awesome

Simple graphics and gameplay but really well made. The music and sounds go well with the style. Good job.
If you try to drop a block inside another is stays with the mouse and the beam disappears which seems a bit odd.

Zeeeeeep.

Excellent number of well-thought out puzzles! Thanks for this.

Mechanic is perfect. Very simple and intuitive. Could easily take this concept further! However I do have a soft spot for puzzles.

danik 2011-05-04 20:06

Solid game! Simple graphics and a simple mechanic that works very well with the level design, I liked it!

drpetter 2011-05-05 11:20

Simple and clean. Could do with some fun feedback and dynamics to make it more enjoyable, like lasers (and other items?) updating in realtime as you move the boxes, so you can sort of play around with them instead of just arranging to solve the puzzle. There were a few moderately challenging parts, but overall it was pretty easy to get through. No game-breaking bugs that I could find, so props for that. Seems like a scenario where those could easily pop up.

Very solid. I liked the audio.

matthias_zarzecki 2011-05-05 20:41

Amazing to see how it does work without having any graphics :-)

jonbro 2011-05-06 09:56

I think that just the tiniest touch of particle effects or graphical juice could really help this a ton. The game is brilliant, I loved the last level.

stigrv 2011-05-06 19:32

Interesting gameplay mechanic. Even more awesome ending :)

rik 2011-05-07 12:33

Solid game. A little slow, but challenging and fun.

joekinley 2011-05-07 22:17

No timelapse? Sad timelapse watcher over here.
Great game though. Awesome simple audio, had fun playing here. The ending was surprising, but i just hate.... i don't tell but meh. Nice game though.

elbowroom 2011-05-07 23:41

This a really solid game.:)
It just somehow lacks real challenge. .
The puzzles are fun and the platforming is cool.. the last part is the best one.:)
Over a very nice polished game that is pretty addictive.

nilstastic 2011-05-08 16:45

Very nice, but a bit easy. =)
I think this game has very interesting and nicely done gameplay features, expanding it with better graphics (8bit style?) would make this a hit. =)
Good job!

strd6 2011-05-09 06:14

A nice exploration of this interesting mechanic. Great work on level design!

hectigo 2011-05-09 20:33

Ha, great minds think alike. :) It's almost eerie how similar this is to my game in some respects. Mayhaps Portal 2's lasers have something to do with it? My sounds/music pale in comparison to yours, though.

mwest 2011-05-14 22:15

Brilliant - well done!

endurion 2011-05-15 05:41

Nifty idea, makes for quite a few nice puzzles. This is a concept you could really expand on well!

brighterorange 2011-05-28 18:09

Good stuff. :) The music and sound effects really went well together. I found all of the puzzles pretty easy, except for the last one, which I think I beat the wrong way (jumped and moved a block under my feet while in the air!) but I do love doing that.
