Fun, but the difficulty curve ramped up very quickly. By the third level I was getting very frustrated.

SuperlevelSebastian 2013-04-29 12:35

Nice, complex riddles. Also, very clear game design. Love it.

phi 2013-04-30 16:36

Very challenging, nice graphics. Weird sounds, but I think it matches. Loved playing it! At least until level 6...

patrik 2013-05-01 14:18

Great gameplay. Hard as heck, but great.

tipyx 2013-05-01 17:20

So hard, but I like it :).

grouflon 2013-05-01 17:36

I can't beat the level 3... But I'm sure it's possible, and that's what I love :) Very clear level design, very gameplay idea, minimalistic in a good sense. Really enjoyed it ;)

qaterknan 2013-05-01 17:41

Good game, really hard though.

jimmylord 2013-05-01 17:52

Cool puzzle game, I gave up on level 6, I started playing with multiple pieces moving at the same time, which was probably a bad idea. I'd say it's a bug, but it might be intentional.

HelkeGames 2013-05-01 19:45

Nice game, well done!

stmatn 2013-05-01 19:58

Nice idea, great execution. The audio is really cool. I like it a lot :)

merkoth 2013-05-01 21:18

Simple yet fun. A little difficult at times.

psychomonster 2013-05-01 21:59

have favorited it... must play later... to tired ... but i love this kind of riddle game

chrismcr 2013-05-01 22:25

Very nice indeed!

saintheiser 2013-05-02 02:42

Good work! I like puzzles like that. Thanks, man!

ithildin 2013-05-02 21:50

Cool puzzles (even though a bit difficult, but that's a good thing =)), and very appropriate visual style.

glisk 2013-05-02 21:50

definitely one of the best puzzle games i've seen this time

justinmullin 2013-05-02 21:58

Very cool puzzle. Early on I thought moving multiple pieces at the same time was a bug, but then it became a necessity. Was not expecting that!

kefir 2013-05-02 23:26

Really good training for my weak brain! I'll save it and play again several times.

zatyka 2013-05-02 23:50

Very clever level design, but gets very difficult, very fast. Nicely polished. Keep up the good work!

taylorlunt 2013-05-02 23:53

High difficulty but fun.

leginar 2013-05-02 23:55

Good game but very frustrating (in a good way)

stqn 2013-05-02 23:56

Seemed very good at first, but I can't find the solution to level 3.

komiga 2013-05-03 00:50

Notes:

- Music is haunting, a bit.
- Like the idea so far.
- Level 2. 11/11.
- The level completion sound is a bit strange.
- Level 3. 18/16.
- Level 4. This is hard.
- Music is getting annoying, now.
- 23/15. Could have done that better, I think..
- Level 5. Shapes!
- Level start effect doesn't seem to fit. I imagined a much different audio palette based on the visuals.
- 25/18.
- Level 6. Oh my.
- Possible gamebreak: move two blocks towards eachother in the same instance.
- Got all but the square situated with 91/36. Is there a completely normal way to do this?
- I don't think so. I can only get two of them placed. I give up.

Things I would change:

- Add keyboard controls. WASD/arrow keys to move, spacebar to switch between blocks.

khahem 2013-05-03 01:00

Very good, I'd really like to see an Android version :)

sparkleswirl 2013-05-03 06:48

Love the level design!

jorjon 2013-05-03 08:48

Stuck at 3... I'm not good at this kind of games :P

bitbof 2013-05-03 13:36

Sliding boxes are always good for puzzlers :)
Beat level 5, but only with way too many steps.

brotherst 2013-05-03 18:43

Nice puzzle game. Trying to get through a lot of games here so don't have time to properly rack my brains over this but It was certainly nice and hard but not too hard.

zeelyndz 2013-05-03 20:31

Pretty cool puzzle game, not really a fan of the music but the puzzles and design were nice.

colapsydo 2013-05-04 09:57

Simple and efficient mechanic.
By your game presentation, I understand that you designed levels by hand, is that right ?

dmitrix 2013-05-04 19:12

Nice. Fun and challenging puzzler. I like the music and art style.

split82 2013-05-04 21:56

It's a little bit over complicated. I think this would be hard enough even without symbols inside those tokens :) Anyway great game.

ramoncb 2013-05-04 22:40

quite hard, but is fun!

zccc 2013-05-04 23:10

Excellent puzzle game!! It's an awesome idea :)

diningphilosopher 2013-05-05 02:16

Extremely good puzzle game, very challenging, and I like the hypnotizing music.

2/2, 11/11, 16/16, 15/15, 16/18, 30/36, 31/31, 10/10, 8/9, 12/12, 30/29, 25/21, 18/17, 16/16, 10/10.

I'm freeee! It's 4:12 AM here, so about time too. For at least three levels a lower number of moves is possible (see above).

metroidman347 2013-05-05 12:30

Only made it to level 4, but VERY solid nonetheless.

finefin 2013-05-05 16:19

uhh, I guess I suck at this. stuck at lvl 4. nonetheless a nice looking puzzle game that perfectly fits the theme.

taro 2013-05-06 04:28

Very well-made puzzle game. Lots of the puzzles made my head hurt, but that's to be expected from this genre. Liked the creative solutions a lot!

rykounanba 2013-05-06 19:06

Good game. It was fun, it had good puzzles.

depp 2013-05-08 00:27

Level 6 was just kind of frustrating, with the blocks not lining up exactly right, so I gave up.

realyuniquename 2013-05-08 12:11

Great execution. Too hard for me, gave up on level 5

gatechgrad 2013-05-10 04:47

This reminds me a lot of the block on ice puzzles in games like A Link to the Past. Level 3 and 4 had me stumped for awhile, but I finally got it. I gave up on level 5.

dr_soda 2013-05-10 06:49

Level 6 really ruined the game for me, unfortunately. I was really into it up until that point. The design honestly just feels like you got sloppy and that the game is bugged.

The remarkable thing here is that I wouldn't have this strong a reaction if the game weren't actually really fun and cool otherwise. The music is perfect, and the pacing and puzzling is great. Just not Level 6.

turbodindon 2013-05-10 10:49

Very good puzzle game. And the soundtrack is awesome!

davedobson 2013-05-11 03:05

Really interesting and fun puzzle, with cool music, nice graphics, and simple gameplay, reminiscent of Sokoban. It got very hard, but it was fun. Nice work.

Jeremias 2013-05-11 10:15

Very difficult but nice puzzle design. Some of the puzzles seemed to be unsolvable at first, so much the better it was to solve them.

sebastian 2013-05-11 11:44

Well I was going strong until level 6 XD
Slick design and gameplay, good work.

madball 2013-05-11 14:08

Level 6 is broken. Exits aren`t aligned, so I ended up with all shapes paritally on exits. The level wasn`t completed. http://puu.sh/2Re9Z.png
The atmosphere is nice, and the game is very detailed.

mollymus 2013-05-11 17:54

Love these games!:) Didn't bother with level 6 though as it seemed more like a timing thing than an actual puzzle!:)

euwaku 2013-05-11 18:18

This gets difficult very fast :D
Very neat. Should be integrated into the next Prof Layton's game ^^

someone 2013-05-11 19:07

The slight offset in level 6 was intentional. It is possible to complete without messing about with timing moves.
Hint: The shapes are round and the line on the side is two and a half tiles down...

eggdestroyer 2013-05-12 11:15

Stuck at level 5. Good game, works well, but too hard too fast IMO. Also lacks a "mute" button or a longer music loop as it becomes annoying.

ethankennerly 2013-05-12 18:51

Sliding the circles to arrive at the destinations interested me. If you continue to develop this, I started to lose hope in level 4.

xanjos 2013-05-12 22:33

Puzzles were pretty hard but the overall concept is good.

sylvain-p 2013-05-15 17:15

Really complex but good puzzle game.

paulmcgg 2013-05-18 11:18

Really clever and quite tricky at points. Like the sound effects.

maloki 2013-05-19 06:16

Love the music and the style. Very relaxing yet quite difficult! It bothered me at first why I wasn't getting done at one point until I saw the shapes inside the circle. It wasn't as obvious at first, but it went on smoothly after that. Good job on the puzzles!
