Wow the level design in this game is amazing. Great job :)
What a creative puzzle! Very fun to play. I got to level 11 and had to stop for some other stuff but will come back to finish it. Great Job!
Awesome puzzles! Loved the complexity of it despite the simple mechanics. I have to get back to beat the unfinished levels. This game is great
Gave up on level 13! I think it speaks to how well designed this game is that I played for that long, I am not normally a sokoban kinda guy but this was great. Incredibly clever puzzles that teach the player the mechanics beautifully- that one level where you teach the player that boxes can push other boxes and then use that in the next puzzle on that screen? Immaculate. My only piece of constructive criticism is that this game could really use an undo button. But it's a game jam game, so fair enough! Excellent work, this is my favorite game I've played so far this jam!
It has an undo button, Z… but thanks for giving it a shot! I would imagine this being quite annoying with no undo.
Aw dang now I feel stupid, reading is hard lol. Great work on this one, really great game
I gave up on level 13, will try to beat it later. This game is amazing. Fits the theme perfectly. Brilliant in its simplicity. I'm a sucker for sokoban games and feel a lot of love for puzzlescript. So if I were to decide, this game is the gmtk2026 jam winner!
I'll have to come back to this one since I've been stuck at level 12 for half an hour now and really need to be playing other games but I really enjoyed this one! Some really clever puzzle designs with incredibly simple mechanics, that's expanded on in a really pleasing format.
Got a little hint from a friend who did not struggle on that room at all (embarassing!) and I beat the whole thing! Super sick final room, those last two puzzles were both badass honestly amazing entry
Awesome puzzle design! Level 13 had me stuck for quite a while. Great job!
really good execution on a seemingly simple mechanic, does the character have a cat named steve by any chance?
I like to imagine they’re friends.
Very clever ! In that vein, it reminds me of another game I plaeyd: /jam/gmtk-jam-2026/rate/4824942
Nicely designed puzzles, I had some good ah-ha moments!
The main mechanic is so simple, I'm surprised how you came up with such well-designed and difficult puzzles! How you can press buttons with boxes, the fact that buttons should be released to be pressed again, and how you used that mechanic to design puzzles gave me chills... It's so good!!
I HAd fun I Will not lie I crAsh out to level to level 4 speedrun
really really good. Great design!
level design and puzzles were really cool! would love some music
Such a clever concept, I really enjoyed the puzzles even though some of them were frustratingly hard :D
I BEAT THE GAME YESSSS AMAZING THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS
I have been stuck on the 2nd version of the level with the nine and 4 twos for a day! I wanna beat it so bad. I love these puzzles, they are designed really well.
omg I just figured it out
Really cool exploration of the mechanic. I love the slow onboarding (e.g. not introducing crates for awhile = good), and how it makes you consider every move you make. I got to level 7 and admittedly am getting pretty stuck/frustrated with crates getting in the way, but I think this is a great Sokoban entry!
Got stuck on 13, but got to the ending! I liked how new puzzles recontextualize old ones, that is always really fun. The last level was also really cool, once I figured out what each part of the level did, the solution came shortly after. Really nice!!
Like the others, I’m also stuck at 13, but they’re great puzzles! I love when the mechanics are so simple but lead to difficult puzzles.
