How does your game fit the theme?
Our game fits the theme “Outside the Box” literally: the player stays outside the box and controls the world inside by moving the box itself.
It also fits the theme mechanically, because the player does not control the character directly. Instead, they must think differently and interact with the game in a less traditional way by tilting, flipping, and manipulating the box.

I had a very good time playing this game. It remind me of a old arcade machine game I used to play when I was young. I like the art of the box and the puzzles were fun. Great job!

It was a fun puzzle game. Donno what else to say. Could have had more levels, or unique mechanichs. Doesn't feel very unique to me. The audio could have been a bit better, the music becomes a bit repetetive, the win jingle doesn't sound recognisable/memorable etc.

字面意义的切题😂,美术风格协调,游玩过程丝滑,引导细致。不过音效有点违和,跳跃功能用处不是很大,关卡设计还可以再打磨,总体完成度很高。

Enjoyable and nice to play with just the mouse.  I tried several other submissions before this one, and they were very troublesome to move/control.  Movement was intuitive, but could be a little more refined -- or maybe just more practice by me.  nice submission.

Physics are a lil off, but still good game!

I enjoyed playing this game more than I thought I would! It's a really simple premise, but you find yourself entertained enough by it that it really just grabs you in and keeps you seated. I would have played more levels had you incorporated more!! I didn't really have any qualms with the gameplay whatsoever. Every little issue could be solved by just thinking "outside the box", and by flipping the box enough times to make the little ball fall through LOL. Great job!!! :D

Simple but enjoyable! Tried it twice, ball got stuck above the "THANKS" the first time. Thought there is more after that so I try again and got out this time! Both music is a jam!

I thought this was a nice three minutes, the physics within the game were clunky however I just came from another game in this jam with the exact same premise, but executed poorly, so to see it done well felt so good to play!

A nice implementation of those things you used to get in your cereal! Love it.
