Great Game !!!! Nice Puzzles!!

pres2300 2024-04-15 03:31

I liked the concept of merging shapes together. Nice work!

thehumanspooder 2024-04-15 06:12

The concept is super cool! Mechanics are also well made, nice job.

haxamn 2024-04-15 07:02

cool game!

volkolak 2024-04-15 08:59

Interesting mechanics, addictive. It was not easy, but exciting!

jb106 2024-04-15 09:09

I did not understand how to pass the second puzzle. The rope feature is really cool !

bewelge 2024-04-15 16:06

Wow really great concept and execution, given the time frame! Well done!

Think puzzle games are notoriously hard to get right but you actually had me thinking before I could solve it :)

dams333 2024-04-15 19:00

Really cool mechanics, I want to do it with a new skin and more levels !

xuanqiuyun 2024-04-16 05:54

Very interesting mechanics, looking forward to more fun levels!

Wow, super impressed. Looking forward to sharing with my kids. Nice non-violent "3d shooter." Very happy it could run on linux to with wine. Although I think I did find a way to cheat...

alxje 2024-04-16 06:14

@runningopenloop Thank for your comment, but yeah, we did noticed that player can just jump on any sized of slime and shot themselves to the exist, so😂

alxje 2024-04-16 06:15

@xuanqiuyun 我去,夹心糖!

xuanqiuyun 2024-04-16 06:21

@alxje 我超,是家人

fataljg 2024-04-16 06:45

Great concept, easy to understand, hard to master !!

eloraju 2024-04-16 06:48

Excellent concept! And IMO worth expanding. Checked the comments after playing to see whether someone else had found any exploits and apparently they had. You could do what Portal did and make only some of the walls usable to prevent people from zipping around on a slime express. Or embrace it and design some levels around it :grin:

anaastaska 2024-04-16 06:50

Very interesting concept of a game! Also game mechanics are great.

runningopenloop 2024-04-16 07:07

Of the 4 the games I played tonight, this one was my favorite.

whalejam 2024-04-16 09:48

This was cool, I like the concept, super easy to understand but its fun, I know you're not supposed to solve the puzzles by sling shotting yourself around, but it was still really fun to line it up and launch myself around. Great job ^^

watcher 2024-04-16 14:09

Nice game, has some antichamber vibes to it

umu-dev 2024-04-16 14:16

Really interesting mechanic that would make for a really interesting featured game, great job ^^

patrick-pang 2024-04-16 15:02

It feels like shooting spider silk when playing, especially the sound effects when shooting. Very interesting game!

nicekot 2024-04-16 20:04

That's surprisingly engaging. Though I found it too lucrative to cheese the game by climbing on the block, attaching it to the ceiling it propelling myself to the sky and to the exit.

Nice!

alxje 2024-04-17 03:05

@eloraju Thanks for your comment and suggestion! We do realized that player can cheat by recharge themselve to ceilling, but we just don't have that much of time to fix it. Besides it is fun to shot your self around the level😂

alxje 2024-04-17 03:05

@runningopenloop thanks for your support!❤️❤️❤️

alxje 2024-04-17 03:06

@nicekot LoL, looks like you too found the "developer tool"

ohfiddlediddle 2024-04-17 04:46

Very cool! It feels really good flinging yourself and cubes all around the map. I did (I think) soft lock myself on the first level by flinging the little cube up to the top area, out of my view though haha. Maybe a level restart button would help with that.

Otherwise great work, well done.

alxje 2024-04-17 06:07

@ohfiddlediddle actully press T can restart the level

ohfiddlediddle 2024-04-17 06:39

@alxje ah my bad, I must have missed that!

thomaszane 2024-04-17 08:42

Great game. I really love the mechanics.

mikropiru 2024-04-17 11:35

I spent a good while just playing around, so it was definitely quite captivating. I didn't quite get what I was supposed to do (except for merging the boxes) in the beginning, and only realized there's more to it after checking the YouTube video out.

The controls etc. could probably be tweaked a bit still but I liked the idea, and you've made a lot in such a short time frame. Nice job!

yanato 2024-04-17 16:05

I like physics here. I like to break the game rules (the planned way to finish level) and that it allows me to do that. And idk an answer for the question "why are you here?":D

pigeonic 2024-04-18 22:47

A really nice take on the theme and the controls feel pretty good too! The only thing is that I would constantly press "R" instead of "T" since R stands for restart in my head :)) A really fun game with really cool mechanics, good job you guys!

2024-04-19 06:42

Great game, cooperative atmosphere is so good, love everyone!🥳🥳🥳

2024-04-19 06:44

Love this game scene and weird style!🤣🤣🤣💡

adamg 2024-04-20 21:05

I don't think I solved the final puzzle with the intended method, I just flew myself into the air on a block, but oh man that felt satisfying to do! I really liked the mechanic of grappling blocks to things and pulling on them, if this was a full game for sale with this mechanic as the core feature I would buy it

anson-rutherford 2024-04-23 05:03

Fun idea! This is a really neat premise for puzzles
