Good puzzle. I couldn't beat the first level after a few tries. Was hoping to see what was next.

Good puzzle. I couldn't beat the first level after a few tries. Was hoping to see what was next.
Pretty creative game!
I don't understand the rules, but the graphics and sounds are funny!
Nice idea, i like it! Well done :)
I'm sorry I don't at all get the mechanics. I think you need to explain how the entities work and interact. All I managed was to remove one block with the scroll but as it seemed like I couldn't do more than push the dudes around... I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.
The puzzle mechanic was quite innovative and enjoyable, but pushing figures was a bit clumsy and frustrating (also I didn't realise I could do that initially). The game would have benefitted from more of a learning curve with a handful of simple levels that teach you the basic concepts to start with. But certainly one of the better puzzle games I played and it did keep me playing for 10 minutes or so. High marks on innovation for sure!
I found this game to be a bit hard. It could be a bit frustrating, but parts of that can easily be fixed in a post compo version I think.
The scrolls for me were not obvious, so even with the instruction on this page I was still not sure if I had a scroll that would kill a tall blue guy or a small red guy or. It was also a surprise that walls were smashed by the bombs as well.
If you had some extra explanation on the game screen where you could see what scroll would remove what, it would help a lot.
Because you couldn't know before hand what kind of scroll you would get the game is a bit trial and error. That's OK, but because of the large amount of variables it took me a lot of work for a small amount of progress (but maybe I'm just too tired for this game at the moment).
Good idea, nice character, but needs some more work to make it sparkle.
Nice top down shooter, getting and using the scrolls felt a bit clumsy though.
The player could be helped a bit to play the game better, would help the game itself. Does work, though.
I wasnt really sure what to do but... I included it in my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to have a look :) http://youtu.be/fAaMjCotTMM
Interesting concept and mechanics. But it would really have been much better with some simple starting puzzles, rather than getting thrown right into the deep end. Of course, that's tough to do within the limits of the compo. Graphics were cool, and it really worked well with the combination of ambient noises. But, it's pretty obvious that this was designed for "two colors", not "you only get one" :P
love the DIY feel and smart puzzles!
Cool character designs, audio, and FX like footprints and melting blocks.
