Ended up softlocked at the very end with an impossible puzzle (according to a solver I used). Otherwise, fantastic game! Well paced and very polished. The QR code was awesome!

Thank you! We actually had a lot of issues with the final challenge. We tried placing the 8th tile in various spots, counting inversions, but it was all a massive head ache and we ended up (don't tell anyone) hardcoding the final puzzle in -- so in theory it should be solvable each time. I can definitely see a world where moving the tiles between cutscenes or doing something funky could cause an unintended inversion which is sad to hear. Or maybe the goal state you input was one swapped when it wasn't? Who knows! Thanks for playing tho, I'm glad to hear you liked the pacing and puzzles leading up to it!
Damn this is really good,
The main gameplay mechanic is really clever, and the puzzles are really clever too.
The pixel art and kind of humorous atmosphere of the game kind of reminded me of minit wich is a really good game.
Overall a really fun experience!

Something went wrong and...Thank you! That's interesting to hear. We were originally planning on adding an accessibility option where you could scan the QR code in the pause menu, in case someone didn't have their phone or something. Unfortunately 48 hours is only 48 hours so it didn't make the cut. Hopefully you still managed to get through though!
Wow, what a treat! Really enjoyed playing this. I won't lie I got about 3 slides in and got stuck briefly then felt like an idiot when I solved it haha! Also loved the 'hidden' puzzle element within the game, great addition!
You should be really proud of this game, you've done a great job!

CouplerBEST GAME I'VE PLAYED SO FAR! I can't believe you don't have more ratings. The main mechanic is simple to grasp, but you've used it to make a really unique puzzle mechanic in a really unique way. Really hope you get to the top 100, Mark definitely needs to play this!!!

Defying InstinctsI'm generally annoyed by 3x3 sliding puzzles but I loved this! That was a very clever mechanic (especially with the "ruins" puzzle) and just a very charming experience all around.
