I had to make a very quick data edit after the deadline, because it turned out that one of the rooms near the end could not be completed. It's fixed now, and you can finish the game properly.

Clever interpretation of the theme, finishing off room 4 I thought I was at the end of the game - and then, there was more.
Perhaps making everything stuck to the grid, several puzzles were tricky due to floating boulders and trying to line them up.
nice game but restart system would be nice :D
Interesting concept. It was tricky to line up some of the boulders, and that probably made the game more difficult than it needed to be. Reminds me a lot of the lolo games.
I get that your game never leaves the screen, but the rooms do. Cool Idea.
My Key fell out of the world (gravity->right) had to stop.
Hi there. Clever the way you reuse screen, nice idea. Escalation of puzzles also good, nice level designs. Like the sounds and graphics too. Good job!
Thanks for the feedback! I think I'll try to make a small post-compo update soon with an added restart system, more forgiving boulder rolling, and perhaps a couple of fixes like trying to stop keys flying out of the level (: (though if you get a chance to let me know where it happened, that'd make things much easier to reproduce - thanks!)
Great concept, fitting the theme very well! Make the player and boulders stay in the grid and add a checkpoint feature and it would be awesome. As it is I didn't have the motivation to play all the way from the beginning once I got stuck.
Nice concept. Collisions are broken (possibly when fps is low, I'm playing on a crappy netbook), and it's too easy to make a room unbeatable by misplacing rocks.
Good game! Will be awesome when bug-free!
love it, simple but fun and original mechanics, well done
Thanks all! Fair comments - collisions are a bit off, partly because it's all rectangle-based, and I had to shrink the collision area a bit to make it at all possible to align things. I've added a post-compo version where you can restart rooms, so hopefully that will at least improve things! (it's accessible through the same link)
That was pretty decently fun, if a little rough around the edges. The collision felt weird, and the wall bashing felt really stiff, but it was playable. The puzzles weren't bad, though I wasn't able to figure out how to beat one of the rooms. It would have been nice to have the boulders move in a more natural way around the tiles, specifically rolling over corners so you didn't have to line up their bounding box to the tiles. Overall a pretty good puzzle game.
Definitely a very raw game, felt off a lot of the time, but a fun game nonetheless.
Got stuck in the walls a few times, and some general collision detection issues arose, but other than that it was a solid little entry.
Nice game! The controls were a little mushy, but they worked. I liked especially how the puzzle of some rooms incorporated elements of the previous room. Good job!
Fun concept and nice interpretation of the theme. Puzzles were really well designed (That one with the single boulder is ridiculously hard or maybe my timing is really bad XD).
Thanks! Yeah, the single boulder one is tricky... it was also the one that was initially unfinishable, because I'd run out of time for playtesting (i.e., there were three minutes until the deadline and I had to submit). It's still probably the toughest room, and most likely stops a lot of people on the regular, non-post-compo version, as it's hard to do without retrying. A quick touch of one switch and then the other will do it, though : )
Oh man! I love running into walls!
Nice little game! I ended up playing the post-compo version after making a mistake in the original version and not being able to restart the level. Though I totally appreciate your honesty here, I believe the ability to restart could totally be incorporated in the first version without considering that "cheating" :)
Bonus points for:
- Web;
- All the animations;
- Innovation!
Good job!
Nice puzzle game! I enjoyed each room's increasing difficulty. It's fun to play and quite easy to grasp. Lacks some music and I felt like keeping the controls restrained to a grid might have been easier. (instead of smooth movement accross the entire map) Great game though!
I am a sucker for these type of games :p nice work!
Cool game
This was nice. I liked the effect of having the levels fade away when I left them. The gravity puzzles were cool too!
I won!! \o/
Really nice puzzle game. Although has some bugs with collisions, it's a great entry... specially the interpretation of the theme. Some rooms are challenging and that's good ^^
If you're going to keep working on it, you could include some kind of puzzle on solved rooms during the Anticlockwise... to increase the challenge! haha :D
On my mac i was unable to see any of the room but still interact. On my PC I got stuck but I enjoyed the puzzle
Thanks for all the feedback!
Calavera: sorry it didn't work on your Mac... I don't have one to test on unfortunately, but maybe I'll borrow someone's iPad sometime and see if I can see what's happening. Did you get stuck on the single boulder room? That seems the toughest (to me too).
Igoramendola: you might be the first to win! :) (I don't know - it was very hard before I put the restarting in) Yes, the collisions aren't great, and I might need to try something different next time. Yeah, I wanted to put something special in Anticlockwise, but ran out of time :) (maybe in a post-post-compo version...)
(by the way, obviously I'm not assuming that an iPad and a Mac will do the same thing... I think I just have a better chance of borrowing one, and they should at least be similar!)
yay! I like to finish games.
and would be interesting a post-post-compo version ^^
Very nice puzzler game! I really liked the complete game - it reminded my of the good old times and was fun. ;-)
Very well done!
Fun little game! I like how you put different levels on one screen and how things in one level can go to another level! Nice work!
nice concept. I haven't finished it (stuck after the anticlockwise...). But cool game, and nice hard puzzle!
(maybe the rocks moving could be grid-based, sometimes we get stuck just for a bad movement...)
Thanks all. Dunin: I think you almost finished it! (In anticlockwise you just need to go back to the start again - that's all)
