I had a great time and the music was meditative. I got really stuck lol.

Beautiful visuals -- love the llama and the color palette. This pulling/scaling twist on the classic sokoban is a great idea, nicely done!
Oh this is just delightful :) I love the colour scheme and the simplicity of the levels, the sprites are so nice :) Easy to play a game like this for hours, great job!
Copying from the itch.io page:
"Got the carrot!
Charming, simple yet so effective. The visual style is such a great choice for the jam, allowing you to create something fast yet with complete polish. The puzzles had the perfect quality of looking obvious at first, leading you to a dead end, and then giving you that "aha" moment.
One thing I'd change is to say "stretch" the boxes instead of "pull" the boxes. I didn't realize you can compress the boxes down until the very last puzzle."
Thank you!! One thing I really liked about the jam this year was the longer time-frame, really gave me time to polish up the visual style and have breathing room for level design without feeling stressed.
Ahhhh yeah that makes sense, apologies! Should've shown off the squishing of boxes in the thumbnail gif as well, I'll alter the description to include that; since obfuscating that ability isn't meant to be the challenge. Thank you for the feedback, I'm really glad you enjoyed playing!
I loved your take on the theme here. The visuals were minimalistic but crisp too.
Oh thank you! was def trying to evoke a kind of Bitsy style with the 2 frame animations and 3 colour palette, slightly miffed since I ended up going for a bigger resolution so I could render the player character in more detail, it made the game a lot harder to read than the initial drafted tile-set. The concept below would have looked a lot cleaner I think. I'm really glad you liked the stretching boxes too!

I was totally shocked by the concept of your game. Full of creativity one .
Thank you!! I spent the whole first day trying to think of concepts, was about to give up since i'd used a 1/4th on the time on nothing, and at 8am the next morning "sokoban but you can stretch the boxes" was just good enough of an idea to get me out of bed. Really glad I was able to hack it together in time, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
The aesthetics are lovely. The colour palette lets you very easily distinguish floor, player, movable tiles etc.
The controls are sharp and so is the level design. Good job!
Nice simple and fun! Some stages were quite challenging, well done!
very cool puzzle mechanic, it led to really interesting puzzles, which made me think a couple of times, also just the act of pulling boxes was really goofy and fun, especially since im a lamma. which is very important.
Really fun game, good job!
if you wana try out my brother's game its here https://aviv-youker-harel.itch.io/scales-of-olympus
It gives me Baba is you vibes 🎉
Interesting concept and well designed puzzles: I truly enjoyed it. It could really benefit from an undo/redo mechanic imho.
Thank you so much! extremely high praise to get the baba comparison. Completely agree about the undo button, unfortunately didn't build the game in a way where it's very possible (would have needed early adoption of a command pattern or similar mechanism). If I ever go back to this it's the #1 one thing on the list to add ^^
The box stretch mechanic is such a killer idea, I am just stupid and was stuck on the first puzzle for so long (till I realized you demo'ed the first puzzle in a gif! Awesome art, great puzzles!
Good puzzle game! Used the theme well to create an engaging Sokoban-style game. I think the controls could be a bit smoother, like being able to hold down a key to keep moving.
But I did manage to secure the carrot at the end!
Really nicely put together!
I like how simple it feels to play while still making me scratch my head. I would love to be able to see where the buttons are even when they're covered up though. Felt a little bit like I needed a first run at the level just to figure out what to do and never managed to really "first try" anything
Super creative and mechanic heavy puzzles. The environment is a little too red for my taste but that might just be me. Overall, a super good game.
