Amazing. The mechanics (and theme!) are unique and interesting! The puzzle design is very clever. Solving them was very satisfying. The art and sound design is very cute and charming! I really like the handwritten, scribbly artstyle! And to top it all off, the game is polished! I really enjoyed playing this game.

Extremely original concept, loved it all the way through. The number of possible mechanics are probably endless. With some nice music, this would be perfect. Great stuff!

Absolutely incredible! You guys did such a crazy good job making such a polished fun experience in a week! Would love to see this as a full release. All the powers were so well thought out and implemented amazing!

Wow great idea! Very clever puzzle mechanics, and I could definitely see a lot more potential for different beliefs on top of what you've already got.

A wonderful puzzle game with a lot of creativity behind it. The drawn scribble art stile is very fun and fits the almost childlike idea of things only being real if you actively think about them. All of the pieces come together for a very cohesive product.

Really interesting interpretation of the theme, managing to mix the power of belief with the more obvious interpretation of playing as a lightbulb. The idea of this little naive guy's perception of the world shaping his reality is really funny and being able to take advantage of that to solve puzzles was pretty fun. Great entry!

Super charming, lovely art and sound design. I love how each character reacts when picked up and thrown!

The art reminds me of the flash game "use boxmen," it was my favourite as a kid.

The puzzles are pretty tricky at points, I need to play more!!

Wowow what a cute game… I’d love to see this as a fully flushed out mobile game! My impulse was to collect as many people together as possible which wasn’t my brightest idea ;)

but it was the friendliest!

A Unique Game, Beautifully Presented and Polished! 🎮✨

The idea that knowledge is power is absolutely brilliant 💡, and its execution in the gameplay is just as perfect! The world is vibrant and fun, the narrator always seems one step ahead 🧐, the character designs are delightfully wacky 🎭, and the difficulty curve feels just right. I can only say: bravo! 👏

If there's one small thing I could criticize, it would be the clarity of the connections between screens and the camera management. While this adds to the challenge, a small arrow indicating a room above or below 📍 could help guide the player without hurting the experience.

But in the end, it's still an amazing game! 🎉 Great job! 💪🎨

WOW! This is an amazing entry, it's incredibly clever and the most original take on the theme I've seen so far. Amazing job :O

Developer

Thank you!! I am really happy you felt the theme in the game, as we were a bit worried some might not connect with our line of thoughts!

Developer

I didn't know JellyCar! It does look like our game! Thanks for the reference!
