Incredibly polished game! Levels were challenging. It took me a few minutes to understand how the moment destroyed the environment & enemies, but I really enjoyed it!

The concept is really nice ! Was doing random move at the begining to finish the level and then began to understand how it was working. The difficulty is well adjusted. I would gladly play an entire game of this !

Thank you for the feedback!

Excellent game! Well thought out puzzle mechanics and a nice game length (although I would have played more if there was)! Sometimes the order of operations could be a little bit confusing, and a undo/step back in time function would have helped a lot in a game like this too. Very well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Undo/Redo is a good suggestion as well.

This is my 100% favorite game of the jam, its also the first one where I feel it deserves a true 5 star rating, its also the first one I recommended to IRL friends to play! the Idea is so good, the execution is so nicely made, its not bloated with extra features. The page is neatly made and the sfx are perfect with the simple art. Hope you do well in the results! Also happy to see others do gridbased puzzle games, they are so peak! Edit: also played your other games and they are so good too!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words, it means a lot! Been looking to play some other grid puzzlers so I will have to give yours a try!

This game concept is fantastic. I was really confused at first, but after the key+door level, it really began clicking for me. This is a excellent core mechanic, I would love to see it expanded upon with more side-mechanics (boxes, enemies, etc.) and more levels.  Also, the art is really simple but really cute :) 
Minor nitpick; Sometimes pressing R caused a "double reset" which was a little annoying at times.

Thanks for your feedback!

I love the core mechanic and the homage to baba is you!!

Developer

Thank you! I was waiting for someone to point out the baba is you influence haha

Very neat and clever idea for a puzzler, and the puzzles were well balanced in terms of difficulty also! Sometimes it felt a little unintuitive as to outcomes of certain interactions (such as moving down and pushing a box with the level destroys the box) or niche situations but still simple enough to get the hang of. Very cleanly produced as well, overall an awesome job!!!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! I do agree that there was some inconsistency in the interactions.

Really interesting idea for a puzzle game and it was executed very well, I would love to see dozens more levels with this mechanic! The art style and audio are also very charming resulting in an overall wonderful experience. Great job!

I have never seen a game like this, really fun gimmick!

Very cool concept! Art style is very clean as well, and the sound effects and music perfectly fit the style. The puzzles also were really well designed, the one with the two little red guys took me a bit to figure out, though none of the puzzles felt unfair and all had that satisfying click to them.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, glad you liked it!

I didn't expect this game to have such a cool concept. I enjoyed it a lot!

I like it! Simple and relaxing game with an interesting take on the theme! I would love to see more levels and mechanics. I think there's a lot of puzzle ideas to explore

Really loved the themeing, would love to see an expanded version of this idea 

Submitted(+1)

I am confident that with a more complete implementation and expansion of the concept, the game will become significantly more fun and interesting. It would be great if you could add the ability to adjust the volume. Evening is the perfect time to relax and fully enjoy the game.
