How does your game fit the theme?
This game is a little weird Sokoban RPG. However, instead of controlling the avatar to push the box, players actually control the map and move the walls to push different kinds of stuff on the map. In that case, the roles of an RPG Hero and a map are reversed. It's not the Hero that tries to save the world, but the world on the map itself tries to save the Hero.

Cool creative game, makes you really think! Controls could use some tightening otherwise really enjoyable.
its very cute, nice graphic and cute gameplay.
the music is very cute too, it makes you wanna play in time with the music!
Creative mechanics and fun puzzles
Incredible level design! Well done!
I like the Baba-Style feeling and puzzles! There are many tiny levels and all of them are easy and satisfying to solve (in a good way, no frustration).
Very fun! The puzzles were engaging and fun to figure out, and it never felt like there were any unfair difficulty spikes.
Fun puzzles! It has potential
I really like the concept of this game! Also the art is amazing! I want to see this as a full game! I played all the levels and want to play even more! Awesome game!
I really liked this game! The music, sound, and gameplay all come together very nicely! I also thought the puzzles were very clever and well-paced! Had a lot of fun with this one! I do have one accessibility recommendation, however. I think allowing players to press and hold a directional button to move the level instead of having to press only once every time would help make the game feel more fluid.
Anyway, I really liked this game! I'm impressed with the level of polish you achieved in so little time! Good job!
What I most like is the art and sfx. It just fits the game! Overall a nice puzzle game you have created there.
Mechanics introduced too slowly for me, but very well done nonetheless!
Really solid game! Looks good, plays great, really nice idea! Solidly executed. Good job!
This was such a neat one! I love your take on the theme! :)
Its good, albeit a bit easy perhaps as far as puzzle games go. The visuals are great and the music fits too. Overall solid game
This was REALLY good, great music, sfx, cute art and great leveldesign. Best one I've played so far you should be very happy with this! :)
I really enjoyed this. The level design was spot on.
This was incredible!
It's really funny to control the map. Hope to see more games!
