Whoever designed level 3 is a mad lad. Actually one of my favorite entries so far. I too wish you could have made more levels. Not sure if camera panning would help or hinder the gameplay. I kinda like not being sure if I remember the path correctly.
One of the best uses of the theme so far and the puzzles are nicely designed. I thought it would be simple because in a lot of cases your hands are bound and you can only reach one (new) colored sphere anyway but already in level 2 there were multiple options. Also glad that I wasn't stuck after taking the wrong one but that I could just retrace and retry.
The 3rd level could have used some camera panning with the mouse because it's quite hard to see where you can go. Also visually there is not much here but I guess all time went into the clever dimension switching and designing the puzzles.
Great job on this !
Thanks!
One good thing about fixed 3D camera is that it hides things that you can only see in 2D, which I think makes it interesting. I wanted to explore the differences between the two worlds. That said I can also imagine a movable camera in a more developed version of the game, especially if there were other gameplay elements that make you explore more.
Nice take on the theme, I enjoyed this!
This was cool I really liked the transition effects and the 2D>3D puzzles.
Cool idea, like the mechanic a lot.
Wow, that 3rd level was complex and well designed. Kudos!
Oh. I really liked the mechanic of this game! I envy the brains you used to design those puzzles. Thank you!
