Very fun and simple game. I couldn't beat it, but the controls are surprisingly satisfying. For a first game this one seems pretty great, good job!

I like your game its quite fun just wish there were checkpoints or something cuz it was quite irritating having to redo levels completely.

I think I got to the last desert temple level, the one with timed waterfalls, but I didn't know how to find the key after long time checking out every corner. The last blue box didn't seem to go up enough to destroy the water below the door.

Anyways, I really liked the concept of "The floor is water", just the base idea is super creative. The mechanics of the different elements like the green block and blue block are good and can make a huge possibilities of puzzles. I also enjoyed the dark vision gameplay in the temple.

The level design was good too, apart from that last part of the level I mentioned were I was super lost.

One thing I tweak is the color of the desert temple platforms since they look identical to the background and can get hard to distinguish.

Overall, great submission!! Kudos!

In retrospect that level is really confusing and could have been fixed with more playtesting. Thanks for the feedback and playing our game!!

Pretty fun gameplay! I thought giving the blue boxes 2 functions (getting rid of water and platforming) was a nice touch. Art was cool too, nice work!

Developer

Glad you liked it, Thanks for playing!!

Fun game, very clever idea! As a pixel artist I think your game would look neater by not using arts in different scale, like the water sprite. Great work though, it's very fun to play

Thank you so much for the advice, when trying to learn new things it's important to have these mistakes be pointed out! Thank you so much for playing

It's fun and simple just what it needs to be a game. I tried a platformer too, so I know the difficulties of it and I think you did a great job

The title screen music and background are such a vibe, I could've just chilled there for hours not even playing the game. The puzzles were very fun to. And the whole premise is very clever. Well done!

Check out my game if you get a chance 😊.
