The visuals are great and I am a huge fan of the title. It is not immediately clear what each different tile type does. Specifically, I could not figure out the ? tile with arrows is for. Sometimes when you fail, it is not obvious why.

I LOVED thin ice from club penguin when I was younger. This is SUPER cool!! Love how unique the tile mechanics are, and it's very impressive how many of them you were able to add during a compo. Great stuff.

This is an amazingly designed puzzle game! I loved how everything was designed, each mechanic (and there were a lot of mechanics in this one) felt intuitive and you managed to craft 45 great puzzles with them. Great job!

I DID IT, all 45 levels complete, there was one i think 41 or 42 that was a real doozy good job

Fun game. Must have taken a while thinking about all of these possibilists. Hardest ones for me were 9 and 41. This would be a great app game for mobile. Good job.

So many levels, nice! Great job overall, looks good, works well and is fun.

This is a fun little puzzles game. For me I think there is a bit too many puzzles, and I would liked more focus on making more fun and interesting levels. But I had fun trying the game. Well done.

A very elegantly designed puzzle game! It's got all of the hallmarks of a classic great puzzler - all of the mechanics are simple to understand, but how they interact with each other creates the difficulty. The animations gave it a lot of polish, even though the icons themselves were very simplistic. Well done! If I had a criticism, it would be to allow the player to instantly press an arrow again to move without having to wait for the animation to complete, but that's more of a nit pick.

Great game, the mechanics are simple but effective!

Sorry, but I don't get the idea. This is good puzzle but gameplay is to boring.

Having the double activated tiles is such a great idea! They added so much so how I thought about the levels. The start was a little bit repetitive, but by the end there were some really fantastic puzzles that made me think for a few. Very well done—I had a great time playing this one!

a fun game thanks

Pretty nice game! I made it to level 19.

The tiles were introduced in a pretty fair way, so I never felt that I needed a text based explanation for anything. The visuals were trippy!

EDIT: You should make a cover image! I almost didn't click because it just showed the default gray bars.

Solid Puzzle games with good level design teaching the player how to play. Might go back and try all 45 levels if I got time.

Neat entry! I could crack level 41 myself, but I thought it was cool you managed to create to many levels with so many mechanics while introducing each one smoothly. Like some others, I had trouble figuring out what the ? tile meant. GG.

Pretty neat, I did wish that the background was less harsh and that some of the icons were easier to understand (like the spring and the rocket seemed to do the same thing??).

richard-baltrusch 2023-05-06 22:19

Super polished entry, you have a real talent for puzzle design! Almost completed all of them, but got stuck on number 42 badly :( The mechanics were very satisfying and there were an impressive amount of them! One small mechanical/polish nitpick: I would have liked an indication for where the hourglass symbol would land me, but otherwise I really enjoyed the game, good job!

Great game! I've spent a lot of brain cells on it lol. Well done!

raffe 2023-05-07 14:27

An actually a very solid puzzle game. Mechanics worked really nicely and they were taught in a clear way while progressing through the levels. Graphics and sounds felt a bit artificial, but served their job well enough. Color changes in background felt a bit intense. Perhaps the use of color could have been reserved for the puzzle icons instead? The levels seemed to be designed really well! It was challenging enough but we managed to get to 41 levels! Very nice puzzle entry by you, congrats on the job! :stars:

Just got to the end :) I liked how each different type of block was introduced; one thing I really missed was a "undo" button (to revert step by step instead of restarting the whole level)
