  • I love the pixel art here! The beacon bot (BB) is so cute and the rolling animation is great. The levels are enjoyable and I like the mixed colors take on the laser mirror puzzle idea. I would have liked if the book where you start gave us directions (top floor is what color you need, bottom floor turns on lasers, as well as what colors make what) or if we could start on the same floor as the turn on lasers switch. Great game so far! --- Presentation is fantastic, love the robot and camera work of the map. Movement between levels is really smooth. It's somewhat unclear what to do when you get in, had to move between a lot of diff floors to figure it out --- 30/40

I really like your art style as well as the puzzle design, the controls were a little confusing to me, but other than that it was a great game!

We're glad you liked it and we really appreciate the feedback! The odd controls are something we definitely intend to fix, maybe with a pop-up menu of some sort.

Thanks for playing!

Super intuitive. I liked exploring the different floors understand the problem.

Thank you!
It actually crossed our minds to consolidate the layout for convenience, but we're glad it still made sense!

Really fun game. I love the art style and the character animation. The game is smartly designed to reuse the same area with different puzzles. And the puzzles are pretty fun too. Sadly I managed to hit that bug with the diffuser so I wasn't able to complete it fully.  Regardless, great work! Keep it up!
