Very intuitive and simple. The movement was a little too snappy for me - I completed a level in its entirety and then my move moved me into the lava before I actually jumped (I'm not great at platforming; the platforming elements that required timing felt a little out of place with the movement being the way it was). But I did enjoy and play through all the puzzles. Thanks for a fun game! ^_^ Cheers.
thanks ^^
Well, this is just a fantastic puzzle game. All well explained, fun to move, fun to win. I thought the presentation was fantastic. I'd love to see this expanded to a bigger game, with a little story about the scientist. Seriously, no notes on this one. Just great!
thanks ^^
Got through to the end, and really enjoyed myself!

Thanks for this precise feedback !
Very fun game, very sturdy and solid feel, loved it.
Thanks ^^
Hi Matteo!
The learning curve is perfectly smooth and you introduce new mechanics seamlessly and intuitively. For example, I didn't need any clues that boxes could be pulled, because in the previous level you showed me they could be pushed, and in the next you gave me one that was impossible to push! So naturally I got pullin'! A true disciple of Mark Brown!
Thanks for sharing, good luck in the jam!
Best,
Brandon from TheIndieDream
Thanks for the feedback ^^
great take on the theme, and i liked the art
Thanks ^^
Good game. Honestly, I think you handled one of the best tutorials/pacings so far from what I saw in this game jam. Usually, almost everybody has problems communicating the core gameplay to the player, while here I never felt lost or bored. Nice work and good job with a solid entry. The only thing I want to add si that you could try to export the game for the web next time, downloading is quite tedious when you play 30+ games for jam.
Thanks for this feedback !
I wish I could export in web HTML but I don't have the GameMaker licence for it :')
Vraiment sympa comme petit jeu,
Ya quelques problèmes de physiques, le saut est pas super agréable et le fait de sauter en boucle quand on reste appuyer sur haut c'est pas terrible,. Quand on spam la touche haut ca joue le bruit meme quand on est en l'air et ya quelques problèmes de collisions (sur les coin).
Sinon en terme de design c'est plutot bien pensé, tu introduit les mechaniques une par une sans que ce soit trop le bordel, j'avoue que j'aurai meme bien aimer un peu plus de challenge.
Vraiment sympa en tout cas 👌
Merci pour le feedback ^^
Nice puzzle game ^^ I liked the concept introduction ^^ very well done ^^ and the sound effects really fit ^^ good job ^^
Thanks :)
I loved this puzzle game, is a good lesson on well designed controls.
The levels in themselves are good tutorials and arrived to logical conclusions with no penalty for failure besides a quick reload.
Nice polished game, loved it.
Glad you liked it :p
Fun, polished lazer puzzle game. Responsive movement for a character, great tutorial that helped me understand the game quite easily. I loved it
Thanks for the comment :)
Very tight execution and great tutorialization! I especially liked the timing puzzle towards the end
Glad you liked it ^^
Simple idea executed perfectly :O The intuduction of new mechanics and ideas felt natural. The sprites cute and simple. My only problem is there arent any more levels :D
Overall simple yet fun well done :D
Thanks ^^
This game has really good level design and pacing. It shows the player what to do without using a single word. The player is then needed to explore these mechanics to get to the next level. It's very well polished and I really enjoyed playing it.
There seems to be a slight problem in the level with 2 lava pits. I was able to get through the level using only one reflector.
Great job on the game!
Oh ok I wasn't aware of this problem, let's say you speedrunned the game :p
Thanks for the comment !
Amazing game! I like the slow ramp up of mechanics and difficulty in puzzles, with great graphics and sound design. The puzzles are well made too. Nice job!
I think an issue is that for one section I had difficulty aligning the laser with the box as pressing the keys slightly make it go too far either way. I had to adjust everything again before trying once more.
Thanks for this feedback !
The game is super well executed and looks great! Congrats!
thanks 🙏
Loved how you introduced the new concepts so smoothly to the player, it was like a well polished tutorial level! Looked good, too.
Glad you liked it ^^ thanks
Great looking game, and authentic audio. Love the presentation!
A strong introduction to the core game mechanics through simple levels which cleverly familiarise the player with the game's concepts.
Some pointers
- in what I think is the 3rd room, the 'wheel' looked like a dangerous object to me. Maybe because it was spiky, but I thought I had to avoid it. It didnt take me long to figure out it was safe though as I had nowhere else to go, so not too bad!
- 6th (i think) room with the 2 lava pits has an unforgiving start ledge, i fell straight into the lava. doesnt matter though - quick restarts are excellent and this game is super strong at getting the player back into the action
overall, excellent quality and really something to be proud of for only 48 hours of work. the level design is very strong, so huge congrats!
A huge thanks for this feedback !
Thanks for taking the time to play :)
Level design, art, music, and concept was great! One of the best games of this jam I have played. Bravo!
Thanks, really nice comment I'm so happy people liked the game :)
Clever mechanics! Really like how new spins on the concept kept being introduced as the levels progressed. A shame that there probably wasn't enough time to fully explore these mechanics. Lots of potential for fun and satisfying puzzles.
Yeah I would have done more levels if I had more time xD :p
Thanks for the feedback :)
