I really liked the puzzles in this game. Good job! 

Submitted

Well done fellow ballet-based puzzle enjoyer. Cool to see how different our approach was to a very similar idea on the surface.

Submitted

Nice puzzles! at first i thought they might be too much but they made for a really interesting challenge in the end.

Submitted

Super creative puzzle design! Definitely got challenging! Great work!

Submitted

Ballerina idea is really clever! Good level design, you stumped me for a but on some of the later levels. Tighter camera angle would make things a bit more legible. Music + visuals gave me an OSRS vibe

Submitted

Very unique take on the theme. The puzzle mechanics were well thought out and added new layers to the base mechanic. There is a bug where if you move backwards and then hit "undo" before you've fully moved, you can teleport backwards an extra square (and even outside of the map).

i love this take on the theme! the difficulty progression is good and i love how each mechanic can be designed to be so difficult

its a very fun puzzle game with a cool concept!

Submitted

very impressed by the statues but I wish the mechanics were better explained to the player. also I think a closer camera angle would help a bit. otherwise great idea :p good job.

One of the ideas I had at first was a ballarena but unfortunatly it gor scrapped - nice to see one made it into the jam! I also did a puzzle game and hoep you get a chance to try it out.

i love this interpretation, and the music was very whimsical. thank goodness this ballerina isn't claustrophobic or she would have a very bad time

Submitted

the idea is so good !!

check out my game if you want to :>

this was very fun and I like the concept I was a little confused on how I beat some of the games LOL but over all enjoyed it the art is nice and simple and I loved the music and found the levels with the statues super fun c:

Submitted

Fun time! There were a few puzzles where I genuinely didn't understand how I passed. I liked the stripped down aspect of the game. 

Submitted

Very fun game! Left me wanting more puzzles

Submitted

Very very cute idea

Nice concept ! I like the level design !

I also found that the statue are not really lisible/

I did have a bug with the tank control, with the ballerina that turn when you keep pushing up 

Nice job !

The idea is so creative. I love it! I noted down that I especially liked level 14, that was some good level design. A few critiques: It is very hard to tell which way the "medusas" are looking. It would be easier to tell if for example their pose had a finger pointing out or smthn like that. Otherwise a great game:D
