"Obey The Game Master" and "You're Not Allowed To Win" became the source of inspiration for the plot.
Tooling
I've been using Godot since 2022. But this was my first time using Reaper to compose music and I'm very happy with it.

Ingenious puzzles. Real head-scratchers as the game progresses.
The graphics are excellent. The animation of the main character is full of personality. Amazing work for 64x64 pixels. And the audio is very atmospheric
This is amazing! Great work on puzzle design, many took a lot of thinking to solve! I like the way tiles interact with each other in various ways, brilliant mechanics! :D
Well made, quality game though I think there is a bug in the save system. After coming back to the game on at least one occasion I got spawned in the next room.
Thanks for playing! You’re absolutely right about the bug — it will be fixed after the jam. So far, only two have been found: the second one is the lack of a description for the bookshelf in the wizard’s library.
Oh, I like this a lot! Took me a bit to tune my brain in, but now I can't stop playing =)
Great game jam entry you have here!
Thank you! I still restricted to write comments; support isn’t responding, so I’ll just say here that your game is fantastically well-made; I’m playing it right now.
Great game
Thanks! Just ran 2k+ meters in your game, it made me laugh watching the thief jumping with that damn painting )
Really fun! I love the perspective and there is a great sense of discovery and proession as you learn the new interactions. Great job!
Very interesting entry! The mechanics are super original and fun, and while the puzzles are a bit devilish, it makes the challenge feel really rewarding. The main character has so much personality in those animations, too. Superb job all around!
Thanks! Your game is amazing too. I’m still blocked from commenting, so I’ll write it here. I’m a fan of FTL and didn’t expect something like this to be possible on Pico-8. Already screwed up three runs and planning to come back and try again.
Thanks for playing it… I can tell you it was not easy and there’s a massive amount of things missing ;) but so far happy with what i managed to squeeze in
A good torture device, an amazing game, completed it fully and restored humanity (frogness), kva
A fun version of Sokoban.
Игра чудесная. От enotofil ожидал как раз такую цельную игру.
Чуть не дропнул её в самом начале из-за того, что пытался походить гоблином и не понял, что нужно делать.
Не хватило немного свободы, но, видимо, это особенности темы. Однако прикол с вскапыванием ямы (первый скриншот игры) - какие-то грязные рельсы. (логика понятна, но неочевидна до прохождения)
Thanks for playing! Completely agree that level 11 (first screenshot) is too hard and stupid. I posted the solution in the game’s comments.
