A really great concept that needs just a few tweaks to work. It would be nice to have an indication of which room will drop next, or even a way to choose it. Great style and innovation though. :)
Great concept, fun to play.
Clever puzzle design, left me wanting to play more! :)
Really nice idea, I really wanted to complete this lol. Shame about the bugs, I think it's definitely worth trying to fix them :) I'm worried that quite often you could end up with an uncompletable setup but I'm not sure if that's a thing?
Really lovely style (the day/night transition is so pretty!) and with a little more time to tweak difficulty and pacing it could be very compelling.
Really simple but original mechanic and very addictive :)
The ninja's agility feels fun and I like dashing and leaping into the fray but it was difficult to see when/how to react to enemy attacks so I ended up just resorting to spamming sword attacks as fast as possible (which is still fun and pretty much how I play Devil May Cry to be fair!). Room there to be polished into something great :)
I can't tell if/when I'm firing with some of the weapons and there's no feedback to show when I'm dealing damage so it's very difficult to tell what's going on.
I couldn't find anything to collect. I couldn't get in the shower room to investigate the gross implied prison rape mechanic? I somehow ended up in there by mistake while trying to do something else and then I got stuck, something spawned and then I died? Confusing and vaguely offensive to be honest.
I'm really stuck trying to build snowmen. I can get a snowball onto a bigger one but then I can't see how to push a third one on top because the green grooves I've left behind are blocking me?
I figured it out, I just wasn't making the head big enough! :)
I'm hungry now.
Like it! Very clever - it took me a couple of tries to work out what I needed to do, but was satisfying when I did. One thing though....unskippable cutscenes! Would have been nice to skip back to the start of the game once I'd been destroyed.
Hi, thanks for the feedback. As is the nature of LD, there was a lot we wanted to do with the game that we didn't have time to do during the jam. I've found time to do a little bit of bug fixing since then, including weighting the tiles so that the most useful ones are more common and making there more of an indication of how they should fit together.

Love the art style! One issue I had was I was pressing right to advance the story, but pressed it again too quickly and accidentally chose a story option I didn't want. I think having a different control button to advance to the next scene would help.
Awesome! I played a little while on your server and it was fun, but the lag was causing me to glitch about. Couldn't get my own server to work, so now I am just jamming to the music in the background
This is really great, the most interesting game I've played so far. The difficulty ramped up a bit too fast for me on the level where you have to double back around and I couldn't get it round the first corner using only one gravity blob so had to start again from the beginning. Really cool and I like the 3rd person bullet cam :)
Great work getting the networking set up in such a short space of time. I was playing and another random player turned up to help me fight!
Enjoyed playing through this little game. Found the turning a bit wonky but other than that was fun to play.
Nice art style!
Really enjoyed playing this. Found the difficulty curve just right for me...I staggered home with few potions and a sliver of hp left, only to be able to finally claim immortality and laugh at death! :)
