Incredibly clever game! As far as cool mechanics go this was one of my favorites this jam, which is a shame because I really feel this game deserves much more attention than it does. Had resolution problems but after learning it's running on a custom engine (because no existing engine can feasibly accomplish this), it's very understandable why that piece of polish would fall through. The looping mechanic is fenomenal and leads to some one of a kind puzzles you couldn't come up with in any other way. The window acting like an entity of its own and talking to you by changing its name was incredibly clever and charming. I really have no complaints aside from the resolution, and maybe the presentation could use some work, but it was easily one of the most impressive games I've played this jam and is woefully underrated.

I will be honest..... I didnt finish the whole game. A level stopped me. But it is a great game and something Mark will enjoy...

This game was really clever! It's an interesting puzzle mechanic that really gets you thinking. I'm on windows and the game window was glued to the upper left hand corner of my screen. It didn't impact the gameplay at all, just wanted to let you know in case you didn't. Nice work!

Works really well, had a lot of fun! Let's talk about how this game is only 7 MB too??? Puzzle mechanic is great, textures are simple yet coherent, this is really interesting. Probably the best game I've played in this jam. Finished in 7:22.

Those window games are always cool. You did great with this one. The puzzles are not too hard and not too easy. Perfection. Nice work! 

Also I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!

This is actually mindblowing! Such a unique idea of using the literal window to loop around and solve puzzles. Had a lot of fun with this. Completed it about 7 mins.

This is really clever, but GOD it is brutal, I only barely cleared on stage after 15 minutes! really cool concept though!

This is a really clever game. Took me a bit to figure out the trick, but managed to get a few in before I got real stuck. Its an excellent play on the theme. Nice work! :D

I was able to play this on Linux with GE-Proton-9-27 with no issues. But got stuck on the level with the two small holes. 

It is a unique spin on the theme. I really enjoyed it.

My only gripe with it is the sound when you are going through edges. It is really unpleasant for me.

Nice game with a good idea. The game didin't work the best on linux but still great.

A clever game with a cool concept. A bit hard for me to play on linux as the windows when not showing correctly. I’ll give it another go on windows. Congrats!
