Nice take on Sokoban theme!

Cute sokoban game. You have to think a little bit more since the signal has further range than you might expect.

Good entry. Like this take on Sokoban

I love sokoban games. Nice twist on the mechanic. Good job.

Man I am not good at Sokoban games but this is a neat little twist on the formula, having to get something close but not exactly knowing where the "correct" place it should go. I got stuck on the same level as @roroto-sic.

The one frustration I had is I couldn't find any Restart Level so when I completely messed up I had to spend a long time undoing all my actions.

umaiit 2026-04-20 07:19

@matt-giuca Actually there IS a way to undo quickly or reset the level, which I put in the README with the source code and windows version release but not the description here. I have attached them just now. Sorry for that and thank you for your playing and feedback!

A interesting and fun little twist on a classic puzzle game. It's well made and fun to play. Well done.

I'm not a fan of sokoban, but this is very good. I like this style and sounds. I'd like to have a reset button.

Too difficult for me, but the notgate mechanic pushed me to keep playing!

Screenshot 2026-04-20 at 18.24.11.png This was my limit. Level 14, I think.

I think I need to get the repeater to where the rightmost box is, but I just can't find a way to do it.

Anyway, this is a good game. The puzzles are well-designed, which is like, the most important thing. The signal mechanic is a really nice implementation of the theme, and then you build on it with the repeaters, which is excellent. Maybe there are more mechanics for smart people on the later levels, I don't know :'( I don't really want to cheat and peek. Maybe I can do it if I come back to it.

Graphics are basic but clear, no complaints. Oh, one thing, the undo is very welcome but it would be nice to have a key to just restart the level in one keypress.

Why are you an F?

matt-giuca 2026-04-20 10:13

> Why are you an F?

Ah I was wondering that but I think (extrapolating from the name) you're a False signal, trying to become True or something like that?

umaiit 2026-04-20 11:41

@matt-giuca @rogual Thx for playing and thx for ur suggestions. I think i will add the reset button soon.

Actually, 'F' stands for the Fourier operator—it's used a lot in signal processing. lol

Always lovely to see new sokobans. I'm not the biggest fan of "level variants", altough the NOT gate is one of those case where you do get interesting surprises. Lovely entry!

khaotom 2026-04-20 18:47

i enjoyed the really well explored puzzle mechanics. just needs a full reset button rather than press and hold undo, but if i remember what level i am on i can use the slash command

avi 2026-04-20 19:09

Love it! nice puzzle game, and cool interpretation of the theme. Great work :)

trav 2026-04-20 20:04

Cool game, I enjoyed playing. Also, I've never seen raylib compiled out to a web game like that before, I learned something useful from your code so thank you :)

nidoprince 2026-04-21 07:51

Like the guy above, I also got stuck on lv 14. I also started noticing lag as I played longer, but that could be because I was using my browser and its not optimized for that.

Fun sokoban idea. The goal is not to push crates anywhere, and to find where the signal transmitter should be pushed.

@mikan really amazing to beat it in 15 mins

andrian 2026-04-23 14:19

A solid Sokoban-style game! The mechanics feel right and it's a nice take on the genre. Good job!
