Just finished it, and it probably took me over half an hour at least (wasn't keeping track). I really like the puzzles, but I did get frustrated at times. As others have said, I think it would benefit greatly from being constrained to a grid, to avoid needing precise finger movement, which I'm not great at. I feel like it could benefit from some sort of limited undo, but I'm not quite sure what that would look like.

Very fun game! I love these kind of puzzle platformers. Some of the levels have a single solution (as far as I could tell anyway) and some have quite a few as long as you are careful about it. I like that.

A couple of small complaints though.

First, you are not aligned to a grid, which means you can leave a block that covers a little bit of a gap so you cant escape. Not a bad thing, just i found myself resetting quite a bit because of a small overlap I didn't mean to make.

and Second ***Spoilers maybe?***

You can kill the bugs with the bomb, and sometimes they are needed to complete the puzzle.

Overall, I really liked it! If you continue to work on this game, I would like to play more levels!

That was a mind twister. As a person who hardly stays still in platformers, I had to change my habits and move carefully here. The idea is great and the puzzles are really well designed that I would never have guessed that it is a jam game. The visual aspect is also really well done. Great job.

Very nice idea! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam 2019 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Really nice and fun game! Kept me occupied for quite a while :) Adherence to the theme is also ok., butI was mostly amazed by the unique mechanics! 

If you have some spare time you can check out ours :) https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2019/rate/463199

This is by far the best game that I've played from this jam. I love the way you rolled out the bomb in a way that the player would have to learn the mechanic. I was seeing your progress pics on the discord page as well. I respect the hustle.

Very unique and fun to play. I'd be very surprised if you don't end up in Marks video!

Really solid game. Interesting implementation of the theme.

Had to stop at level 12. That small guy is often placing the squares just a little off so that I get stuck. Really driving me crazy :D

Feel free to rate our game too ;)

Nice work! I had fun playing through the levels. Enough of a challenge without getting frustrating. Keep it up :)

Love the game!

I like how the main mechanic can be helpful by using the blocks as a tower but also harmful when you trap yourself like you are playing snake :)

*cries in level 10*

Still, very cool game! I loved it! The level design makes a very good use of the main mechanic! Good job!

A lovely game! I had a lot of fun playing it, however I do understand what you were going for regarding the theme but I think it wasn't very clear

It's really really cool! I really liked the level design and the many possibilities it brings, it's great!

Maybe the bomb option is deserving the game since it's not only one space anymore and I think you could do without it, but it's just a detail, and the result is great! good job!

Developer(+1)

yeah originally there as no bomb but then I realized bombs are fun and you only get one bomb and the game is only one screen and there is only ever one enemy if the level has an enemy

Very well executed! So addicting game :) Good work!
