In what way does your game fit the theme?
Boxes are stronger together as they connect and can go over gaps and not break bridges. Also, in some levels, you need a group of boxes that are together to activate the buttons because they are stronger when together.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes

Very nice level design! If you were to improve anything, maybe upgrading the artwork, and picking a consistent color palette, would go a long way. Nonetheless, this is a very solid game, well done!
Thanks for the feedback! Art is definitely where I struggle as well as music. I liked your game as it gave me some nice Gameboy vibes!
A little and cool Sokoban, perfect for teasing the brain.
Thanks! I made this kind of game because I had never made a puzzle game or a tile-based game so I thought they would work together pretty well. Your game also had some good puzzles and I liked how each character needed to work with each other!
I love how the screen is a little curved. makes me feel like I'm actually playing it on a tv. I also love the sound effects!
Tbh, the whole curved tv effect was an accident. I was just playing around with effects until I found something that made it look better lol. Thanks for the kind words about the visuals and sound effects. You also had some great visuals with your lighting!
Its a pretty cool concept. Some maps are curved towards inside the screen, some aren't, and there is some weird post-processing with chromatic aberration which doesn't feel right.
Overall great work, keep it up!
Chromatic aberration was definitely a hit or miss depending on the level especially on levels 9 and 10 lol. I liked your games graphics a lot, especially the atmosphere which I forgot to put in the comment I left on your game.
The audio is so damn satisfying every time you move the robot, it really helped make the experience so much better, so great work with that! The game was very fun and puzzling :) cool art style too!
Thanks! That sound was basically just made by increasing the pitch of a pop sound I did with my mouth lol. It was also done on the last day because before that the game felt like a PowerPoint slideshow as the squash and stretch animation wasn't there as well. I liked your game as well as it was a fun and satisfying challenge barely making it to the next white area in time!
Love it, i really like the simple but nice sound effect. GREAT!
Thanks! The sound effects were mostly made from me going into my basement and finding stuff around the house. The noise when you move is me just making a "pop" noise with my lips. I liked your game as well as the puzzles were very skill-based and the color and power mechanic was nice.
Great game! Some puzzles really had me scratching my head for a long time :D Nice work! :)
Thanks! I enjoyed your puzzles as well because of the amazing physics!
A very good puzzle game. Well thought out and designed. Got stuck at level 3. Will try to finish it!
Thanks for making a video on it! If you want a hint, try to get the box on the button while you are near the portal. I've seen two ways with one being my way and the other being a much easier way.
Really well thought out and well put together puzzle game, i really liked level 2 where you had to make the box respawn and push it from behind the box's respawn to push it to the end, very smart idea. Great job

Yeah that entire mechanic was kind of based off of how boxes in portal respawn where they started. Thanks for the kind words
Sorry for the late reply i wasnt on itch.io at the time but unfortunately the browser is frozen and idk what to do also what file download is it for because if it is for windows then i cant play it
there is a file for both windows and mac. The windows one has been tested but the Mac one hasn't. If you have linux, then you most likely can't play it unless your browser starts cooperating. It needs to be played on a computer on the web, not a phone.
Nice Game :D You got me there in the second Level, is this level bugged (chest has to be moved against the wall) - Nope thats the idea :P
Dang I almost missed replying to your comment! Yeah, that entire mechanic was loosely based on the portal series boxes where they will basically spawn where they started. This was also a thing that kind of surprised me when watching streamers play it is that they took a while to figure out how to get it out when you can only push it forward! I just played your game and am about to rate it. I like how you have to be active during the defense portion, unlike most tower defense games!
Thanks for playing my Game!
Best game I've played so far! Looking forward to how you develop this idea further.
Thanks for the feedback! It was a blast seeing you play it on stream and having those ah-ha moments. Your game was also a ton of fun with the minigames in between to change up the pacing!
I love the mechanics and the puzzles you made of it, especially being able to push boxes through void tiles with other boxes. The art style is also nice and the old monitor effect makes it even better. Overall, a really strong and well-made game. :)
Thanks for the feedback! I was really proud of this entry and I'm happy that other people like it as well. I also rated your game and I thought it was amazing with the song and Boris's personality!
Im not so good in Puzzle games (Even if i made one for this jam) but i realy liked the style and the puzzles are very well made, hard but solvable. The camera effect realy got my attention and the sounds were on point. I will try to solve it whole when i have more time (Got stuck at 6), but overall a realy well made and smart puzzle game.
If you could take a look at my game too, it would make me very happy<3: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/928164#post-2666072
Yeah, level 6 is where a good amount of people get stuck mostly because of me not signaling well to the player that the box with an arrow pointing towards it is over a void tile. I'm glad you enjoyed the game and found the puzzles well made. I made sure to check out your game and I found it really fun especially the funny descriptions of each character.
Fish eye and smooth animation make the game looks very good.
The levels are hard to me and it is a good thing to a puzzle game.
I am amazed how well the new mechanisms improve this traditional type of game.
Thank you! I always like to add some extra post-processing lol. Also, the levels weren't meant to be as hard as they were but it ended up like that. Thank you for rating my game and I made sure to rate your game and leave a comment as well!
The 5th level was the worst for me. If i can make a suggestion, maybe some sort of magnetic box would be more in line with the theme than normal crates.
Great job! I really like this kind of puzzle game!
You're definitely right about magnetic boxes as the streamers who have played the game have all gotten stumped over pushing it over the edge to reach across. The 5th level is one where you really have to take your time and it is definitely difficult as I made multiple moments where the obvious answer isn't right. Thanks for the kind feedback and I made sure to rate your game!
Cool game, bro! I was glad to play it!!!
Awesome game! Got stuck at level 6 though. Will keep trying later.
Congratulations!
In case you don't know, the box with an arrow pointing towards it is hovering over the void area. Hopefully, that helps you and thanks for the feedback. You had an awesome game too!
A really nice little game with a unique gimmick. It was a joy to play and had some really nice brain busters in there. I also didn't find any softlocks, which is always a huge plus for puzzle games. The spritework and music is simple but effective in making the experience engaging. All in all a really enjoyable game :)
I'll be keeping this game in my collection, I want to fully play through it at some point.
Thank you and I'm so happy that you liked it so much. I just rated your game as well and it was a blast to play especially with how good the art and music is!
Great game! Loved the art and the profile art is awesome and captivating!
Must have been a lot of hard work! Good job!
P.S i hope u rate my game too :)
Yeah, I did rate it! I loved the dialogue in it. Thank you for your kind words about my game!
