The Golem looks funny hehe. What an interesting mechanic. It took me a moment to figure out which node does what and I was missing a random node 😄. Is there a goal yet? I couldn't figure it out. Good luck with the project, looking forward to your updates ✌️

Thanks for the feedback,Fabi 😊 Yeah my original submission doesn't have a goal - I added objectives in the updated version!

The game was fun enough, but as it sounds like it wasn't really a LD game as per the rules, I unfortunately will not rate.

Thanks for your honesty arzi! Since I made the game during this weekend I figured it would be eligible for submission, even if I made up the concept beforehand. But I understand your point, it wasn't a full Ludum Dare participation for me!

It's super fun. Please give the roation blocks different colors so you can tell them apart. Also deleting blocks could be a little easier. I felt super smart after beating some of the harder levels. Hope you continue working on this a lil bit. :)

Was pretty fun, playing with Jonas today and comparing our solutions to the puzzles. I agree on the rotation blocks. The arrows should not rotate with the block orientation. There should be a delete all blocks button.

I played before you added objectives and with the objectives the game is like 100x as fun! :D

I quite like the visual style. Pretty charming to look at.

The wall sensor is a bit annoying since you can not change the relative direction of the green and red outputs.

Looking forward to what else you'll do with this concept!

I love these types of games, and it was fun to play. It seemed to have some stability issues for me, but it was more reliable at a higher speed.

For rating this, I played the submission version. However I think this game has a lot of promise, a nice art style and lots of potential with what the puzzles can be. Having a larger grid to place instruction in may be helpful for more complex puzzles. I did also play the updated version, some interesting puzzles, perhaps some sort of progression with unlocking the different instructions would work well. Good luck with developing it further.

I really enjoyed this. I like games that allow me to look at the problem, spend time in it, try things, fail at it, and try again without terrible consequences. Thank you. :D

Wonderful Art. I learned how to play for a long time and loaded me into the game -))

looks very intertesting. The Graphics are simple and pixelperfect. The gameplay is heavy for me, than the puzzle pieces were not walked, how I placed. But overall Good Work! Maybe im to dumb for this ^^

Love programming games and this was pretty nice! I really liked the way you added reusability within the order of placing the pieces... Idk now how to explain it haha

It reminds me of Wumpus

Nice little programming game! would have loved some sound effect to get some more payoff while playing the game :) The logic puzzles were interesting enough to try to do efficiently, but would have liked a bit more overall 'story'/'goal' (am I a wizard's golem? who is giving these commands? motivation? 😄) Good start for your bachelor project.
