How does you game fit the theme?
The blue and green ghoost blocks arnt real when a button is pressed

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Everything but the music and materials was made by me. materials are from unity's default HDR scene. And the music and sounds were paid for.

A really cool entry! I thought the idea of not just pressing buttons, but being a button to be pressed, was an awesome idea! The puzzles were well designed, and I think the graphics looked great (very fitting in a 3D puzzle game).

I have only 2 main critiques. First, the camera seemed to shake a lot, especially when I was just beginning to move in a new direction. This made movement somewhat disorienting on my end. And second, I think having some sort of game over screen after the player falls would be nice, so players don't have to manually restart the level after falling.

But still, I think this was a great game with a neat set of puzzles. Well done!

This is a very nice puzzle game! The button character is super cute and I really like how your objective is for the character to get pressed! The music is nice and calming too! And the sound effects are very satisfying! My only tips would be to test a little more with the way the blocks roll, because sometimes, even if I completed the puzzle, the block would just roll out of the platform and I'd have to restart the game. Also, when you fall, you should automatically restart. But besides that, great game! I could see this as a full release! Keep it up ^^

One of the most polished and impressive games I've played for this jam. The visuals are nice and clean, and the button character is super cute.

Each puzzle was well designed and felt rewarding to complete. They explore the concepts of the game mechanics well and ramp up in difficulty in a satisfying way.

Sometimes the blocks slide or roll in a way you don't expect. There were a couple of times where they flew off the level unexpectedly.

There doesn't to seem to be any way to make the red blocks tangible. I'm not sure what purpose they serve. They made me think I was doing something wrong in the levels that featured them.

I'd pay for a version of this with more levels. I hope you develop this concept more in the future!

Developer

I'm glad you liked and pushed me to 20 rates. also I am continuing work on it to make it a party switch game with 1-4 player multiplayer. Thanks again for playing.

Great game, with nice puzzles. The character and the animations are cute. I had fun. Good job :)

Thanks for playing and the rating.

Nice game! It was a little cumbersome to carry out the puzzles even when I knew how to solve them, though.

Submitted

cute fun game dude, you could have optimized the graphics more.

Underrated game! One of the best games I have played. Very well thought out game design and sound fx are very fitting. I liked that you took a more calming approach with the colours, music and a clock rather than countdown timer. Not to mention the character design and animation, omg so cute! If I fell off the level I had to manually restart level, having this automatic would be nice. Also, having hints could be a cool addition. But honestly, you should be so proud, this is really good!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing. Thanks on the feedback because I will be using it to finish and put it on switch. Btw the falling for ever bug was made last minuet when I tried to make it so you couldn't die after winning. Thanks again for playing my first game jam game.

Submitted

I love the idea, cute character. Interesting puzzles although I think I blundered through one of them without the "Aha" moment. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing and rating

Excellent polished puzzle, sets up for relaxation. Only physics sometimes go weird, but not critical

Developer

Thanks for playing and I'm glad you liked

Developer

So I’m going to be adding more stuff and making it multiple player for the switch but some of the less experienced players I let play don’t really use the mouse to look around so I was thinking about making it a forced perspective like death squared but I would like to hear you ideas

Submitted

I really like this. A lot. A lot a lot. The movement felt great. I want to see this get polished up and released as a full game. Not sure how it fits with the theme though.

When I fall off the platform the level doesn't restart. I think I would expect that to make gameplay quicker.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it. also I do plan on making it a full game and releasing it on switch with 4 player multiplayer also that falling forever is because I tried to make it so you don't die after you beat the level but messed up the if statement and didn't bother checking if it worked because it was 1am

Submitted

Haha, the reality of a game jam! Just wanted to let you know.

This is top-notch and just such a fun game. The button, is freaking adorable. Lil legs eyes and all.
Loved playing it!
I, however, got stuck on the last level, and decided to use my game dev knowledge hacking skills.
I put the wood block on the lift, an stood under it waiting for it to press my button which worked lol
Great work on the game. Love it.

Submitted

Cute and fun game ! That's a very creative idea for the concept and character design, I also like the walking sound lol. Keep it up!

Developer

Thank you for the feed back and for playing my game. Speaking of keeping it up I’m going to add a ton more stuff and make it a switch party game. Also I’ll give your game a go after school.

Submitted

Simple and plain game !! and the concept is outstanding :) !! Really enjoyed it

Thank you for playing and I’m glad you liked it. I’ll check out your game when im done school.

Submitted

Really neat game, well done! The graphics were cute, and the puzzles were good, took me a while to figure out some of them :)

Developer(+1)

I really enjoyed making it during the game jam and I’m glad you liked it to. I’ll play yours when I’m back from school.

Submitted

Thanks, I appreciate it :)). Speaking of school, I got a math test tomorrow O_O

Developer

known bugs:

1.you dont respawn when falling out of the world

2.the main menu will look wired if you have a wide monitor

3.timer counter sometimes displaying a really long number

sorry for the buggynes its because had a great idea to fix some bugs at 1am and didn't test them because I was tired.

Submitted

Loved the character. Super cute.

A few areas of improvement though.

It'd be good if the menu could be operated by keyboard. It feels weird for the game to be entirely keyboard, then have to switch to the mouse for menus. 

It should auto-restart if you fall off.

I had a few random crashes to desktop. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ill look into the crashes. But there is camera movement with the mouse. Did I not communicate that or was it not working.

Developer

also your right about the auto restart I put in a last minute fix that didn't something else and broke that and  didn't think to test it XD. I know now for next time

Submitted

I'm sorry but I couldn't get into the game because of UI, some weird UI started to show up in the screen.

Developer(+1)

could you send a screen shot so i can look into it because i think im going to continue work on it

That what happens when I try to start a game. I would appreciate it if you try my game and give me your feedback though :)

Developer

already did :)
