Nice game with cute pixel-art. Shifting controls was a fun little challenge.

Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much!

could be really good if added with other mechanics, its also really short :( but i like the door mechanics

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

The idea is good. I really like the door that can totally mess your direction for a while. Maybe you can make this effect last a whole level if you want this game to be more challenging. The game is short but I think it can be expanded to be much bigger. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback! I’ll keep that in mind.

A nice little game! I really like the theming you have in this game, a labyrinth inside a retirement home is such a unique idea.

Developer

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I enjoyed it and was a little sad when it was over. I felt like I was just getting into the rhythm of it! 

The different kinds of doors and their effects was entertaining, I wish there were more levels!

Developer

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it, and I’ll keep your feedback in mind.

A fun to play and short game 

By the way if possible try my game

Developer

Thank you! Yes, I’ll play your game :)

Short fun idea, the change in directions was pretty crazy, but thankfully I finished the game.

Developer

Great! Thanks for your feedback!

Too short

Developer

Thanks for your feedback!

Submitted(+1)

I really like this. My only gripe is it’s sometimes a little hard to turn corners (worse when you’ve also got to mentally rotate the keypad). You end up stuck on the corner not going anywhere until you move a different direction.

The core idea is fantastic though.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I’ll keep that in mind.

Quite short, but it does play nicely. Especially with the doors changing your directions, that was cool.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Fun game! The fake doors never felt too punishing. Maybe the thing I would add is that winning a level feels for sudden, once you pick the right door you are immediately teleported to the next level, maybe having some grace time to celebrate finding the right door would be nice for the player.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! I’ll keep that in mind.
