Thank You Everyone for Playing. After all of your feedback, I have successfully updated the game, which includes more indications of rooms and better SFX. This game and all of you have helped me become a better game developer. So Thank you all for your meaningful feedback. I hope to make better games in the future for all of you

Pretty cool game actually, good puzzle design with the few elements you had. I see how it would've been much harder without a map, so I'm glad you added one to the description, haha.

Cool implementation of the Loop theme , really enjoyed this little puzzle! Good work and congrats for your first game jam! ; )

Submitted

It all makes sense if you explore!  I like how you need to do some experimenting first.  After that you can find a route.  Well done!

Submitted

cute mechinc i love it reminds me of baba is you but on hard mode and that's saying something vey fun puzzle game!

Submitted

I feel that the map prompts are not very clear. Sometimes I don't know where there will be new maps, and sometimes I don't know where there won't be any.

The sound effects are quite good.

Developer

Thanks for playing! That is true... I didnt add any indication of multiple rooms. But to minimize the problem, i have added a room layout in the description. I will add indications to rooms in a post-jam update

Submitted

Wow so cool! Extremely well done for your first game jam!

Really smart and creative approach to the theme!

Well done! :D

Submitted

Played and loved it! Such a neat concept. I’ve got Doppelchain up too—thoughts welcome. Keep it up!

Submitted

Well made mechanics, with more polishing could become something of "Baba is You"

Thanks for Playing! Thanks for comparing my game with a game much better lol

Congrats on your first jam, I really enjoyed your game. Clever design, incentive to try again despite failing a bunch of times. 

The audio gets a little annoying, since there are only 2-3 sfx (move and power-ups basically?), maybe it'd be worth finding more satisfying sounds to the ear :D

Well done though, I'd play more levels of your game and have fun.

Congratulations on finishing your first jam. I promise you there are great adventures yet to come. Enjoy it.

The game idea is simple yet clean, to say the least. Though the game is short, I really enjoyed discovering the rooms and calculating the optimal solution to keep my steps in check. Very cool entry.

One thing I’d love to see in the game is a retry button. Sometimes I mess up so badly that I know there’s no point in continuing, and that’s where a retry button would come in handy. Also, in case a glitch happens, it’s helpful to have that option too. Good job.

Developer

Thanks for playing. Thats a good idea! I will add that as a post-jam update.

Despite how basic it looks, this was quite enjoyable! My only critique would be to add little arrows or something similar to show which directions have rooms. Or adding walls maybe. Adding the map did help fix this to a degree though

By the way, thanks for playing my game!

Submitted

This was surprisingly a really fun concept, a good example of how to make the best out of very minimal graphics. Great job!

Submitted

Nice idea! I think the map was necessary, mainly because there is no real difference between a wall and an other room. Also adding a little pitch variation to the movement sound could go a long way to avoid repetition. But an overall great entry, good job!

Fun and enjoyable

Submitted

Nice idea but I moved my character until I was on top of a block with the name "goal" on it and the game did nothing as if I hadn't just stepped on a block with the name "goal"

This makes the game impossible to continue.

Developer

Thansk for Playing. There are arrows next to that Goal image showing that the goal is above

Developer

I didnt really make any indication of other rooms but there is a map in the description that would help

Submitted

simple and fun

Fun! I had a really nice time with this, short but sweet. Original idea, good layout. Hope to see you work on this more!
