For whatever reason, the logic for tiles swapping is just not connecting in our head. Still, this is a really clever puzzle game! The "doo~doooo~doo~duuuuu" of the you lose flute will haunt our dreams now.
Thank! If you want to find how work the tile swapping, I recommend you the level editor to test what happens when you move.
Clever puzzler, and the rules are easy to figure out on one's own. I like that, while you don't know at first what will happen when you move, the same thing happens every time; so even though it can be difficult, it isn't impossible. I think it has a lot of potential.
Thank you so much!
The game was a bit confusing at first, but I quite liked it when I got it.
Having different tiles interact differently was a nice thing. I wish the next state of the map was kind of hinted or something to allow planning instead of trial and error. Although, The guessing is not too bad though.
I liked different sound effects for completing and losing the level.
Overall, nice job!
Thank! I think I'm gonna make a better version with a system to go back to our previous move and also more levels.
Definitely seems like a good mechanic for a puzzle game. Agree with others that it could have been more clear how everything was moving around, but then would it be less out of control? Hard to say. I think outside the context of the game jam, making the mechanics more clear would definitely help!
Thank for your return, I agree, if I had to make que true game with this concept, see the move of the element will be important, but yes when I've made the game for the game jam to keep the idea of out of control I've decide to keep secret the tile move.
Interesting concept for a puzzler, the biggest problem I had was just figuring out the rules for the games. If you coudl have visualized how things moved around I think it would have been easied to get into.
I think I would have like to see some simpler levels that have a more narrow focus on only a few objects, avoid of trees on the sides getting mixed in.
Thank, I understand the defaults you found but the problem with simplest puzzle is they are too short and the objective was make puzzle with new fonctionnality and if the difficulty don't grown I think the game will became a bit annoying and quick.
Really interesting idea! It felt really confusing until I figured out how the tile shifting worked. I couldn't figure out how to test levels in the editor, but it's still a really cool inclusion nonetheless.
Thank!
For the level editor,
Space is for test.
S is for save the level.
L is for load the level.
Fun little puzzle game. Got a little frustrating at the end when it felt like i had tried every combination but couldn't get to the platform! Had a good time playing.
Thank!
And yes, the last level is particularly hard.
I will probably propose a solution video.
Puzzle game des plus ingénieux.
On comprend tous de suite ce que l'on doit faire, les énigmes sont à la fois compliquées tout en restant accessibles.
Le plus important.... ce jeu est fun !!!! et l'éditeur de niveau en petit cadeau à la fin en fait un jeu aboutis.
A essayer absolument ^^
