How does your game fit the theme?
Players will be required to think outside the box in this dungeon-like grid based puzzle game. It takes the basics - such as boxes, buttons, and such, and add a new twist to them... (the title should give you an idea!)

really addicting puzzle game and I thought it was very creative how you had to die in order to progress. Also, loved going through the layers of hell. Overall, I loved every part of it, and you made a puzzle game that was just the right amount of difficulty, and that's coming from someone who doesn't really like puzzle games. Congrats! also loved the final boss
The puzzles were nice, though I got a bit confused sometimes (I have no idea what to do on the end of 3-2 lol). It was fun trying to figure out what to do, but I feel like some parts could be explained a bit better.
Thank you! We will keep this in mind when we're making a full version of this
instructions unclear i never die
Levels 1-2 and onward require it - running into the spikes and lava counts as dying
Dont worry i am kidding i played for like 8 levels
a really fun gameplay and thank god for the quick reset
Oh! Sorry that i was taking your comment seriously lol sometimes i can't tell the difference between a serious comment and a joke comment
Really cool game, really creative. Will play more after the jam, can't believe you were able to make so many levels nice job!!
Thank you!
I love how the puzzles work they are so cool
Dude this was an incredible puzzle game so underrated. The mechanics were pretty unique and I think the level design was so good! It was the perfect mix of challenging yet fun actually peak.
the games mechanics are very creative and work well together to make nice puzzles although, the game could use a bit more communication on how the mechanics' work. the levels are really difficult, but it feels super good when you figure it out (i'm on 5-1 as of writing this). overall, this game is really fun! i like the puzzles a lot.
Thank you for the feedback!
We do realize that the game is lacking on communication on how things work. Some of them do have a "click to learn more'' up at the top, but I wasn't really sure how to explain mechanics in a way people would understand.
