awesome game idea! i was hoping to see more of these, speedrun-esque games where oyu keep em alive! UI is clunky for sure, but the core concept is good.
I would recommend making it so that it's easier to select/deselect items, it's not obvious in the selection screen how to place items. I would also add a UI for removing single items, it's annoying resetting the entire setup just because one item is in the wrong place.
It's also not intuitive how the jumping platforms work.
NICE GAME! Probably the game i spend most time on, on this website. Love the idea, and did all 4 levels. Though it was a little annoying that i couldn't delete just one piece, and had to delete them all if i put one in the wrong place. 5/5 though

Good concept, the idea is nice, and I enjoyed playing it !
The placement of objects need a bit of adjustements I guess. I understood, after a while that you can remove a place object when you have another one in hand but it as it's limit when you don't have any more objects to place.
Love the character choice with differents abilities.
Nice job !

The game is interesting. The game play elements look nice, But the ui looks bad. Level 1 was too hard, and the "Reset Items" Button did not work for me.
A great take on the theme. I had a lot of fun trying to figure out how to get them to the end. Camera movement is a little finicky, but overall a great little game!
okay i see alot of people complay that you cant remove single items you can do it by selecting any item and then click on the item you want to remove

Great puzzle/platform game!
**praise:** I thought I had found a way to cheat by placing jumpers so my character would just jump over everything, but then I noticed the incentive to get all the flags! Very clever game mechanics and level design :)
**feedback:** The game UI could use some polish. This kind of thing is tedious, but it can help improve the feel and experience incredibly!
> Though it was a little annoying that i couldn’t delete just one piece,
@batswigner just noticed that you can delete a piece by "placing" one that was already there.
ps there is a bug if you manualt remove one item the remove all items stop working, "i forgot to remove the item for a list that contains items you have plased, so when you remove all items, it gets a null exeption :-("

I love the game idea but I think add the items explanation more better.

Good puzzle game, its fun and the UI is easy to use. I did get stuck on the third level because if you hit the yellow button and then leave, the yellow gate stays closed and its impossible to progress, even when quiting and loading.

One of the best i played so far! I really had fun with it! NOTE: Once you fall from the first hole of 2nd level the character doesnt die (with the undead at least), just lies underwater forever lol, and once you run out of springs you cannot recover tehem, i had to turn back to menu and restart the level. I was surprised by how complete this game is! Many characters and levels. Well done!
Another pretencious request, add some music! :)
thank you all for the good feed back :-)

I liked this game a lot, it reminded me of the increadible machine, with so many different ways to finish each level. The puzzles were well designed and it felt like a fun sandbox to play around in :)
@vidarn would you have like if there where and sand box mod where the player can create there own maps, with 99999 amount of every item, this would include stuff as spikes, monster"i have no idere what i did draw there", exits, buttons, gates, sign, boxes, spring"the jump thing", grave, runnors, and anything i missed.

@life-lich that sounds like a great idea, I think it would be really fun to play around with 😁 By the way, I liked the monster design, it was original and kind of mysterious
@vidarn Thank you :-)
