Interesting idea and nice graphics. Good work.

Top notch entry here guys!! Really fun game I made it all the way to the end and ready for more :D

Great entry! The idea and the graphics were fantastic! It was quite hard to push blocks sometimes, so maybe look into a nicer way of doing that?

VERY well done game!

Fantastic visuals, nice level design, interesting mechanics.

My only complaint is that there wasn't more of it.

Best game out of the jam I've seen so far. Good job!

Music and the very nice graphics go together quite well, the mood is fun, and I always enjoy Sokoban style game. The game crashed for me when I didn't solve the level and a the lose condition should have been triggered.

the visual graphics were very good, nice work. i like the fact it s a boy disguised as a monster and exploits all

tmpxyz 2015-08-26 02:22

nicely done, the visual style is great.

thegdr 2015-08-26 04:34

made it to end! Nice!

Great interpretation of the theme. Loved the visuals. The controls need to be tighter, maybe consider snapping the movable pieces to a grid to allow for easier/predictable sliding/placement .

Awesome art and gameplay!!

Fantastic idea with wonderful visuals. I found that pushing objects around was a little clumsy and they would get stuck on scenery or not quite fit in gaps, but you made the game forgiving enough to compensate for that. Overall, a really great entry!

nikteddy92 2015-08-27 16:57

Hahahaha the game idea is great!
A little tricky some times to place the pieces, but smooth and enjoyyable gameplay!
Love the visual style! Well done!

plusultra 2015-08-27 18:20

nice job! lots of levels and great art.

headmade 2015-08-27 21:02

The art style is very cute and some of the puzzles are good.

Why does the game send me to the first level again? This is super disappointing. Just quit the game, show some text, anything!
Still a very good entry.

Great, beautiful, funny game!

rougerogue 2015-08-28 18:47

Really liked the mechanics. Kids were very annoying as they would be to Jimmy.

bossmojoman 2015-08-30 04:58

Very polished, fun puzzle game. The Graphics are and sound re top notch. One of the best of the competition hands down. Awesome Job guys!

onionblitz 2015-08-30 10:08

The art looks cute. I wish there was a way to pull blocks sometimes. Funny entry, good job. :)

wekid 2015-08-31 22:29

Awesome game, loved the style. Managed to get blocks stuck a lot haha

puppetmaster 2015-09-01 20:50

I love the art of the graphics. Animation of monster are very cool. Without the time the puzzling would be more relaxing. :-) Very good entry!

dickpoelen 2015-09-02 12:15

Love your illustration style. And it's a fun little puzzler

franklins-ghost 2015-09-03 13:58

One of the best looking games I've seen so far, loved the whole design and colours. Favourite touch though was that when things exploded you got to see you were actually just a kid in a costume.

spotco 2015-09-05 01:16

Very nice graphics and polish, gameplay could have used some more mechanics (got repetitive after a while)

randomhuman 2015-09-14 17:15

Love it! Great learning curve, very addictive, and cute graphics. The only thing I think it needs is for the blocks to pop around obstacles if they are just one or two pixels off. Or maybe I should just not suck so much :P

chunkybrewster 2015-09-14 18:42

Pretty darn fun! The ability to pull blocks and tweaking the hit detection to not be so pixel perfect would make this even better; I found myself restarting a lot because I pushed a block too close to an obstacle. Love the monster costume design

Super cute, funny game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/VOSoNttI06o

jupiter_hadley 2015-12-01 04:27

I also included your game in an article of my favorites from this jam and added a trophy to your Ludum Dare profile!! :) http://fireside.gamejolt.com/post/jam-favorites-ludum-dare-33-part-2-jbncejqm
