Brilliant game ! Really fun and interesting to play, there was some other games i've played that were similar but this one has a great feel and some really cool and interesting level design, made me want to keep playing to see what else was in the levels :) really cool work
This GAME is absolutely my JAM (see what I did there?). Mechanics that build off each other in clever ways, teaching through doing, subverting expectations -- everything that goes into great design is on display here. Absolutely wonderful. But to have that wrapped in such an aesthetically pleasing and humorous shell is icing on the cake. This is my favorite game in the jam so far. Love it.
First of all, I really like the lighting of the game and the music, and also the game is fun too, great job!
The leveldesign in this one is absolutely masterfully created. Teaching by doing is a hard thing to pull off right in a 2D game but you nailed it perfectly
I also love the simplistic style. This game has exactly what it needs and it knows what it is. I loved it!
Excellent level design and simple graphics that create an interesting style. I had a lot of fun, great job!
Rated!, can you help rate mine too please? Thanks!

This game is extremely clean! Very engaging gameplay, clear mechanics, aesthetically pleasing and a very good atmosphere. Extremely well done!
This one is the winner
Super clever game! Very challenging too. Loved all the wordplay :)
Amazing game, music got old over time but great sound and feel. Id pay to play this.
Nice game, Polished and fun to play.
nice game! the level design feels polished. Liked a lot!
I really loved this game, level design felt really well done! Great job on leading the player and introducing the mechanics, I knew exactly what I should do. The only pity for me (according that it's really polished game) is that I couldn't finish your game because of controls and no way to change them. I'm left handed person and I needed to play other way so my coordination in the "architecture" level was pretty low and despite many attempts I wasn't able to finish. Of course it's not sth that will affect my score for you. Cheers! :)
We will keep accessibility in mind next time and maybe add options to customize controls. Thanks for the feedback!
Excellent game design, fun game, nice mecanics, fit to the theme....... 5/5 everywhere!
Oh i forgot to mention this in my previous comment. Basically i was able to complete all the levels except the one with the “sit back and watch, we’ll help”, i think it was somewhere around level 18. Basically in that level, it was a bit of a sudden information overload and i couldnt figure out exactly what to do even if it was supposed to be obvious.
So that level had 2 screens, left and right. I tried pushing the box onto the platform that required light and sending it over to the right screen but that didnt work. I couldnt keep the light on the platform for long enough to reach the other screen and i couldnt stand on the platform to do it since there were spikes. Then i just tried to brute force through the automatic crushing system and that didnt work out as well. In the end i had to skip that level to continue the game.
We have solutions in the description below our game for some of the harder levels. Feel free to check them out if you want to know the intended solution!
Well presented idea. I like the detail of the character's eyes when looking towards the mouse pointer direction. Perfect level design.
So polished and clean. Every level is different and each one is so fun. Fortunately there is a lot of levels. The light mechanic is genius, I love how you can go through a box and then make it appear when you need it.
Really nice idea!!!
It´s a really great game. i loved it. Really great idea.
That's some amazing level design right there !
Great work ! Please make more !
