Definitely an interesting little puzzle game, I like where this concept takes it! The level design is real neat and nicely done and, in my opinion, the simplistic art and sound design work in this game's favour. There's a real nice thing going here, and was quite happy to be recommended it by some folks, so clearly you're hitting the "underappreciated" market. Nice work! :D
That's super reassuring to hear. Were you able to beat the whole game?
I personally didn't manage to beat the whole game, but I was very tired when I played. So that is probably why. :P
I was the one responsible for the puzzle design while my team was hard at work programming the game. I'm very proud of the puzzles in the game, especially the finale. I think it's so beautifully complex, but still possible to be worked out logically.
Great level design, fun mechanic, overall an outstanding game, highly overlooked. Maybe the tutorial is missing a bit
Thanks for the rating. Yeah, I'd say we've been highly overlooked :(
But I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Fun idea, took me a little while to figure out how to use the pills correctly. I assumed they would automatically add to my control count.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for submitting this, it was fantastic despite it completely wrinkling my brain and making me feel dumb - a real unique take on the theme, and some well thought out puzzles :) Cheers!
Thanks for playing the game on stream! I hope you enjoy yourself when you come back to it.
This was really fun! Had a blast getting through the puzzles!
Thanks for playing it on stream!
realy nice game i liked it when the player keep moveing after the pill i8s over its rally smart game
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Was very surprised when the the core problem of the game appeared. Like how you continue moving if you don't have enough control. Good invincible tutorial
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed our game. Those are some pretty pixel graphics in your game.
