Unique. I didn't think I would find anything like this for this theme. Very well executed. Took my a little while to get better at it, but it is really an iteresting idea. Puzzle games like this could do well on mobile

Really great! Loved the room-shifting mechanic!

Really good, polished game; the controls are tight and I didn't encounter any bugs.
The music is kind of irritating and doesn't really feel right, but maybe that's just me. The visual quality and the gameplay definetely make up for it though; the idea behind it ( Icara and the maze ) is also super cute!
Great entry!

I really like the core mechanic of this game. I think its a rather clever use of the room space. Good job on this one!

Impressive. Good job !

I love games with screen wrap mechanics, and you brought it to a whole new level with the room shifting! That was a lot of fun, but very hard until I inverted the room shifting controls. Moving the middle piece felt a lot more natural and intuitive. The spikeballs that show up were a great addition to keep it interesting up until the very end!

Cool game, the shifting was fun and the effect when time was frozen was gorgeous.

I love this it's a great little game!

Interesting mechanics

Very nice idea. Two issues I've encountered - once I got stuck on borders between two rooms somehow (when I took the first feather), and another is that the ball can spawn above me and kill me instantly. Maybe I've missed some indication on where will they spawn? Either way, good game!

hey there, i though this was very unique, i have never seen anything like this before, it was very fun once you fully understand it, maybe you should make some more levels, good job!

Great idea for a puzzle! I used to love sliding puzzles as a child so this was a treat :) It was a bit too easy though. I could just keep the 'C' pressed seemingly infinitely. Platforming was solid, content looks and sounds great. SFX is a bit too loud, I'd like to hear the music too. Awesome game, good job!

@rplnt : That's weird, spike balles should not spawn over you. It's probably a bug.
@M2tias : Actually we were unhappy with the sliding controls (that's why you can change them by pressing S) so we made the time depletion much slower while you're pressing C, so players wouldn't lose because of the controls.

Thanks to everyone here for there wonderful comments ! We're thinking of turning this small game into a bigger one !

The game concept is quite nice. I like the shifiting of the rooms. reminds me of the crazy labyrinth boardgame.
Graphics are well made. The sound effects were quite distorted on my speakers, so i had to turn them off. The theme fits perfectly and it is very innovative!

Really lo9vely graphics and great concept! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/-i4m-nVpQ4M
