I like how some of the puzzles require you to use a combination of powers to solve them. It’s basically taking what you know about how each power works, then putting them all to the test at once. The first power took a little bit to figure out how it worked, but after that, it was fairly easy to figure out how each subsequent power worked.

An interesting little puzzle game. Had fun secret hunting and generally exploring, also cool frog.

I couldn't get past the three box puzzle. Got like 80 on the ball destructor game though. And found some frogs. So overall a great experience.

Nice atmosphere, and the powers evoked a sense of experimentation.
Got a bit stuck with the physics on the three-crate puzzle, but managed it.
I found two of the endings (exit and normal), and walked past the normal ending far enough that I thought there was going to be another one since the environment was designed out—the environment.

It's clear you put a lot of thought into the puzzles and endings. Good job big thumbs up.

As soon as I got the power to erase stuff, I turned around and got the Leave ending. That ending gave me a good chuckle haha! For that magnificent Biggie art, I present to you the very prestigious and famous "Panlord Liked Your Art" award: 🏆

And then I went ahead and got the Normal ending. That boss fight also gave me a good laugh. I enjoyed playing :)

Loved the puzzles! Very creative and finding the solves is satisfying. However, I played some minigame and got a bill for $13 in the mail. Not sure what that's about.

I really liked the music and ambience. The puzzles were fun, and I wish there were more. Did 4 of the endings, and would try for more if there were checkpoints. I couldn't find anything after the last puzzle, so I just kept walking on the open area until I fell into the void. Could be an additional ending!

Nice game! I got stuck on the gravity box puzzle after the ball shooting game. I did get a pretty good score on that game tho (136)

This is an awesome little game. I really enjoy the presentation as well as how well thought through it is. I immediately got the Leave exit because I was like "Wait let me just like break everything I can at the start" and I got rewarded. The game overall feels super rewarding, it's a lot of fun. Nice Work!

This accomplishes one of the best things about puzzle games -- teaching the player smoothly and fluidly. I had just a tiny moment of confusion with the gravitational ability on pick up, but everything else felt like the right pace of progression. Would have loved to see it all come together for an ending, but encountering a giant [redacted] was pretty nice too. Multiple endings are always fun and I think you nailed the humour level. Couldn't figure out the "Don't make a physics based game for a Game Jam" Ending although I'm intrigued by the name -- I did try to clip through the ceiling by jumping on an antigravity box over and over.

p.s. im keeping my $13 dollars

Great presentation and artstyle! Unfortunately I couldn't make it past the third room. I'm not really sure what the ability is supposed to do? If you leave me a hint I'll try it again.

Thanks for playing. If you're talking about the room where you unlock the second ability it flips gravity. So if you press [2] and then right mouse button the gravity of the boxes flip :).
