This is a really unique concept for a game! I enjoyed playing it a lot but did get stuck at one part (I'm not the best at puzzles lol). Either way, I hope you expand on this in the future!

Submitted

Really cool game, sort of reminds me of playing bomberman (I think that's what it was) on my dad's gameboy. Couldn't get past level 5, but it had me hooked for a while!

The level design was top-notch! I had to seriously think about the pathing before I moved. Great take on the theme!

Submitted(+1)

Interesting mechanics, I think the levels could have benefited from being more focused and mechanics could be explained more. I like the general vibe and theme of the game!

Submitted(+1)

I loved this! Very fun to survey the map and figure out what the best path is before hand. I think I like puzzle games like that

Developer

Its interesting because that is one aspect I am not sure is good or not. Because without the ability to see the whole map you can't beat levels first try through planning. But on the flip side it does appear you enjoy the surveying aspect so its not all bad.

Best game so far best difficulty curve and level progression love it !!

Submitted(+2)

I like the style, idea! I also love the fact that I don't have to mess with my movement. Me and my friend enjoyed our free time playing this puzzle game!

yknow i thought this was like a time based thing until i realised its the amount of moves you can do

thats my fault for not reading

i like it tho it got my brain moving a lil

Developer

tbf we didn't really make it that clear. I think originally we wanted it to be both time and dig based but I felt like that was too much for the player and didn't convince people that it should be timed based only. So dugs won out. However, the later levels do kinda mix digging/time anyways like 19. Well if people can reach that far

Submitted(+1)

Good game. But the timing is really close, I can't finish stage 2. There's like no windows for fault. But the game is quite unique

Submitted

Really fun! Nice puzzle game. Let's trade ratings!

Submitted

Nice little puzzle game!

Submitted(+1)

Makes me think of old dos games, it's really pretty looking! I love the cover!

Submitted(+1)

After some time, i got to level two! It's a funny puzzle game.

Submitted

Cool puzzle game

Submitted(+1)

Very fun! Couldn't get past level 6 lol

Developer(+1)

tbh its too hard. Requires knowing that you can enter the pistons right as they are about to open, and getting the timing right

Submitted

This is an awesome puzzler, I enjoyed the brain tease :)
