The levels need to designed with more restriction to force players to engage with the mechanic.

I had to keep restarting the page becuase for some reason there is no failure state or restart button which was a tad bit annoying, but I really like the idea here as you need to keep outrunning yourself!

A good idea for sure, well done.

maybe my natural meandering made this easier, but i didn't see anything getting in the way of me completing puzzles?  i'm curious what the others that played this ran into.  anyway, i enjoyed collecting things and leaving the levels.  the art is nice.  i wasn't the biggest fan of the old-school batman-esque spinning face between levels, it was a tad disorienting to me.  but i see how some people would love that.  

the only real issue i have is that the levels start to get really laggy when there's several ink guys and a ghost.  that might just be the web version.  but if i could pick my next move faster, i'd love that.  

A restart button would help make the game more playable as there is a slight learning curve. The idea is nice. I think adding an easier way to flip between levels might make the strategizing a bit more intuitive. 

Pretty cool game

Interesting concept and game. I wasn't the best at it but overall pretty fun
