Very interesting implementation of jam theme! Like this mechanic) I suppose the game is not finished, or for some reason green matryoshka doesn't open?

We see the inspiration but the "carrying" mechanic makes it different. And it's an original way to implement the theme. Great job !
@pavlov36 The matryoshkas can't open when there's a wall in the way. I realize it's not very clear, especially since you are never told that you can move the big matryoshkas. Of course I didn't really have time to playtest :sweat_smile:
Very interesting concept, I think I've softlocked myself 2 times, for example if put grey m. at the 2-height ledge, then jump off, there is no chance to get on top of it again. Keep up good work!
Insanely original entry. I think I reached the biggest recursive matryoshka in the end as I was going up and couldn't actually leave. A Schrodinger ending if you will, you both leave and never leave at the same time?
..and also I'm now eternally stuck in the wall.

Great job!
My playthrough was just me saying "oh man that's clever" x10000 times. Concept is awesome!
