This was fun! Good job!

clever and surprisingly deep for a game jam submission

I had fun playing this one. Good job!

It’s a cool game; I liked the little poems at the beginning of each level. But the theme is explored too superficially.

Also, I found a bug in the level with the earrings: you can’t move the box and cross the ditch with water to get the pipe. The level can’t be completed.

Hi there! Thanks for playing, I appreciate the feedback. I assure you all levels can be completed though as many people who played the game have been able to do. I’m not certain exactly what issue you ran into but in either case I appreciate you playing!

Short and sweet puzzle game. Really gives off the Game Boy feel really well! Good choice on the palette as well. Had a great time playing through this!

Nice little puzzle game! Unfortunately, I got stuck on the fourth level :(

The idea is creative and super matches a game boy style game! Really liked the pixel art here.

Congrats!!

I really like this puzzle game! Also i like the story. Great job!

Enjoyed the experience until the end :D

Although sometimes I can phase through a plank in a passage and get stuck if I rush to go through

Great job so far :D

Ya the collision was definitely something that bugged me throughout but I really didn’t have the skill to fix it in time without breaking other stuff. Thank you for playing and I hope it didn’t cause too much issue!

Heyya, came here to comment just now and wanted to say how much I had fun playing this game during the stream. It captures the the vibe of the gameboy so well for me, and love the palette as well.

The poems as a clue is my favorite part of the game, not only you have to figure out what they could mean, but I also love how beautifully written they are as well. Really enjoyed reading it not gonna lie.

Overall, such a fun game, great job!!

Developer

thank you so much! I had a blast watching and I’m reallyyyy glad the poems worked. I kinda came up with them near the end of the jam to add some extra juice to the game and I’m happy with how they turned out. Thanks for playing!

Really nice game! I liked the palette choice, and the way the theme is used feels pretty original.

It also feels very authentic as a Game Boy game overall. Really solid work!

Submitted

Great game, I love these plumbing puzzle games! Keep going

It keeps the essence of the Game Boy while adding a new mechanic. The level design and aesthetics are really cool. At some point, I encountered a few collision bugs, but they didn’t affect the flow of the levels; they were just occasional issues. Good game! :)

Ya I tried fixing some of the collisions at the end of the jam but it created other issues so I ended up having to revert my fixes. Thanks for playing!

Really really fun little puzzle game you have made here! I loved the art style and especially the color palette used. The music was really good and the mechanics were fun and the last level really stumped me. Very game boy indeed. Very nice! 5/5

Really reminded me of games I used to play in the 90s, so I’m giving this 5 points for Game Boy soul. I think Pipe Mania is what I’m thinking of.

A very Game Boy Game Boy game, in the best way.

Really like the color pallet you used in this! The puzzles were fun and the game felt cozy! I liked it, Nice work!

The puzzles are fun, but I feel like the collisions make them harder than they actually are!

A nice, simple puzzle game in the style of the Game Boy. I really liked the pleasant visuals. To be honest, though, the soundtrack started to get a bit repetitive.

I appreciate the feedback. I always save music for the last minute and then quickly throw something together because I’m stressed hah. I’ll work on improving that for future games, thanks for playing!
