Really fun game! Got up to level 20, and really liked all of the little puzzles! Great use of lots of simple mechanics to make a fulfilling whole. I also really loved the little text effects on the info screens that would pop up, as they felt like they added a real sense of polish to the game.

Good simple little puzzles. I don't know why the platforms kept confusing me so much though. I knew that they needed to be up when I got to them, but I just kept having to remind myself of that as I kept falling the first time I saw them (I played through a lot of platform levels and just never got a natural handle on that).
If you continue tinkering with it, it would be nice to have some background music, and if I die, it would be nice if any key could respawn me instead of just using R to restart. Other than that, it's a nice simple little puzzle game.
The puzzle design in this game is surprisingly so intuitive. Everything I got the puzzle right I always get that a-ha moment which is awesome! The visual and audio does need a bit more polish tho but other than that, if this is developed further it would be such an awesome game! I also love the fact that you have a reset 1 step button which helps A TON with puzzles like this. Overall, I had a fun time with the puzzles with this one! Awesome work!
I really liked this one; fantastic job! The design and pacing of the puzzles felt just right; really impressive for a one-week jam! None of them got too hard, though I did have to use the undo button a few times to go back and re-think things. Adorable pixel art, too. The sound design is good as well, but I would have loved some background music in addition. I don't really have much in the way of critique here; great game, and would love to see more! Again, great work. Loved it.
Really good puzzles. I liked the growing complexity and introduction of new elements! Excellent Work!
Clever puzzles, overall well made. Seems to me right on point with the progression, great job!
Love all the different mechanics you managed to implement! Personally I would've loved a faster puzzle progression but that might just be me, so a level select would be nice. Great job!
When the jam theme was announced, any idea we came up with that has puzzler we instantly took off the board for the simple fact that a good puzzle progression is something we felt would be a very fine balance and need loads of experience to properly balance. The fact that you made a puzzler with good progression is ace! I could definitely get lost playing this.
I loved loved lovd this one! I think the pacing of the puzzle difficulty is amazingly on point, and it's incredible how many of them you were able to make in such a short time! I did miss a little bit of music, and I think the font used for the tutorial text between levels is a bit hard to read. But overall awesome game!!!!
Really fun game, so creative and i love the little puzzles, reminds me of a pico-8 game for some reason
Thank you for playing my game. I used Picotron's pallette listed on lospec, a website for color pallettes (along with a few other colors!!) for the game.
Nice! Took a little while to warm into the puzzles getting properly interesting, but it definitely got there. I'll be coming back to finish it at some point. Puzzlescript?
