The changing of color to control different block is really cool, just what is needed of difficulty, nice job.
Nice puzzles! Switching between mouse and keyboard for controls felt a little awkward; it might have been nice to be able to control it entirely with mouse (e.g. by swiping)? That would make it a good fit for mobile as well.
But overall, very clear how things worked, and fun to play. Good job!
Great simple puzzlers, I felt that the progression could use some improvement, also making the goal of either color touching an interesting decision that could be fun to play around with, though I felt it needed some more feedback to really solidify the choice.
A nice and simple puzzle with nice minimalist graphics. I'd love to play some harder levels .. you could make it a little harder by requiring more convoluted solutions and more than two colors some of which can't be used to solve the puzzle.
Nice simple puzzle mechanics. Not much of a challenge though. Many levels looked like they should have been more complicated than they actually were, as most levels could be completed trivially by only moving one of the two pieces rather than requiring complicated manoeuvrers to get them past each other. Pressing a key, such as space to switch between the colours would have been nice, and a restart button too.
Simple but enjoyable!
I feel I might have skipped many levels by finding easier solutions than the intended ones, though :sweat_smile:
Reading the description I thought this will be some classic pushing game, but having fixed shaped was some very interesting idea for this kind of puzzles. Also for me the puzzles were sadly a bit too easy to solve. But still, short but enjoyable game!
I love puzzles like this! The only thing I would sugguest is harder levels.
Nice job, solid game! Figuring out how to solve the puzzles felt good. I agree with the previous feedback that the later levels could be more difficult.
Cool game, I liked the mechanics. I think there might be a bug with the win condition, sometimes simply getting a block next to the goal and then pressing in the right direction works (even if the move shouldn't be valid) and other times it doesn't. For example, in level 10 you can't use the green blocks to reach the goal, but in level 11 you can use the red blocks even though a wall should be stopping them from touching the goal.
Fun little puzzle game- I enjoyed that the initial mechanic was presented simply, and then was compounded to be more complex (specifically, I liked that some of the pieces came in multiple parts, that all moved together). However, I think the puzzles were a bit on the easy side, and I feel like I won sometimes when I shouldn't have been able to. Fun entry, though!
Interesting puzzle, but need more level design, like mentioned below, some levels may be finished too easily and with too few moves. And I was surprised to finish the game at level 16 without any message, only restating the same level again and again. I would like to seem more levels 🙂👍
I think there were multiple solutions to some puzzles. The only times I struggled were when I had to switch colors, since it wasn't too how to do that and a level where you had to move a green piece to the goal.
Fun little game! The game design is very good, it's nice to get that sense of progress as you figure out the mechanics. As others said, it wasn't very difficult but I find that I prefer jam games on the easier side, so that wasn't an issue for me. Good job!
Interesting concept, but I think it might be better to focus the time budget on having fewer levels that are more tightly designed. I wish there was a button to reset the level if you make a mistake! The graphics are very smooth though.
A simple but nice little puzzle game. It starts easy but it quickly gets harder. Imho there are things that can be improved like the graphics and the audio, but overall good work!
A lot of people have talked about the puzzles but I'd like to take a moment to say the sound and music design was pretty effective. Nice work.
