Very interesting game mechanics. The puzzles aren't that hard in the beginning, but get harder after some levels, so there is some challenge. Overall it's a fun game! :)

Really nice puzzle mechanic, fun to work out and complete.

The friction on surfaces got very annoying though and when combined with the timing elements proved too much for me.

This is a really fun game, although the controls are a little bit hard to use (just a little fast for me). I think that the puzzles are great.

skye 2013-04-29 20:44

It got a little hard there! Nice work though.

narayan 2013-04-29 20:46

I like the concept, well done !

orange08 2013-04-29 20:47

Good concept... but somewhat poor implementation. Most levels are pretty straightforward and require no critical thinking... the movement and friction are a bit glitchy as well, you might want to look into that.

Great game, the timed third level is a bit overly tough for the learning curve (just in getting the guy to go through the passthrough) but great game!

At the first view, I though I made the same game. In fact, it's completly different and very amazing ! Congrats

Very nice concept, and it fits the theme well. The levels are not very hard though. The last one was only difficult because of the slightly wonky controls.
The graphic style is good though, as well as the music and sfx.

Very fun game. The concept was innovative and clever. The music got annoying after a while, though. But the feeling of victory after accomplishing a harder level was very satisfying. Well done!

Ok, so this game is great, far better than my sleep-deprived brain can fully appreciate.

The only issue I has was that on the last level I thought the controls were a bit icky, but then I realised that I was just trying to solve the puzzle wrong and everything was fine.

Nice idea and nicely executed! The music hurt my ears though. :)

dem0 2013-04-29 22:32

Really unique idea! The puzzles were nice, too

jellycakes 2013-04-29 22:32

Really nice interesting game mechanic. Well done on developing it and the design of the levels. Good job!

Really nice unique puzzler. The walls are a bit too sticky though and it's easy to accidentally bumb on a cube twice.

cherrynukacola 2013-05-02 06:58

Clever mechanic. Thanks!

alucard-j 2013-05-02 23:07

Very clever game, a great challenge. And I like the Wurlitzer music, although some variation could be added for different levels. Well Done =]

super-hamster 2013-05-03 01:03

Interesting concept, the controls seem a bit glitchy but that's ok. Keep up the good work! :D

christian-s 2013-05-03 13:27

I especially liked it, when you get four smaller cubes.

mrexcessive 2013-05-03 13:58

Unique mechanics in my experience. Very nice blending part of character into background to get through things... Organ Music ! Especially love the way you introduce more features, moveable walls, moveable switches

Pokemonsta 2013-05-03 20:23

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

matthias_zarzecki 2013-05-03 23:00

Nice puzzler!

minionstudios 2013-05-04 01:05

Very simple, very fun... The color aspect is even better when applied to the mazes and moveable switches.

taro 2013-05-05 01:18

Very clever puzzle mechanic. It's deceptively simple, yet the puzzle gets gradually more clever. I've been stumped a few times, but in a good way. Nice job!

oatsbarley 2013-05-05 16:12

Clever mechanic and nice music! Well done.

jorjon 2013-05-06 09:48

This is similar to Zip! Nice game, maybe levels are too straightforward.

degtyarev 2013-05-08 17:09

Great puzzle! It's a bit weird that you have inertia, but nonetheless great game.

klianc09 2013-05-10 14:37

Really great game, the idea itself is pretty smart^^ I just want to suggest some improvements, the switches that can be moved should be somehow marked differently from the stationary switches, it took me relatively long to realize I can move them, it would be cool if the player wouldn't abruptly stop when hitting a wall, but instead sliding along the wall, this would solve the problem with the inertia, some of the others were complaining about.

euwaku 2013-05-11 18:40

Nice entry! Similarly to many physic based puzzle games, I just don't like when there's no determinist way to solve a puzzle (By that, I mean that you need to be do almost pixel perfect moves and collisions).

oye-beto 2013-05-17 05:53

Wow this is very creative. I'm giving you 5 in innovation and fun. Clever game and level design.

The music is funny haha.

About your comment on my game: A door appears when you collect ALL the yellow squares and that's the only way to finish a level and get the "you win" message you are suggesting :)

I beated your game, did you beat mine? xD

bentog 2013-05-17 19:56

Oye Beto, I did get to the bottom. Don't know if I won, though :)

oye-beto 2013-05-19 03:46

Did you collect ALL the yellow squares? because you have to in order to get the win message.

diningphilosopher 2013-05-19 12:55

Very nice game! I would like to see more levels. :)
