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.

very fun, actually needed some interesting thinking on some levels, and the sound design is great. Very fun!
Really well executed idea with a great range of levels. Loved it! Well done.
Good job, I had a lot of fun until I faced these weird bugs. But overall I loved the idea, the implementation, introducing the new mechanics, and the puzzles themselves.
Great execution! Definitely see potential for many more levels that really play into these mechanics.
Super cool game!
Fantastic game! It took me a little while to figure out which bit I was moving, but I think that was more of a 'me' problem. Beautifully-designed puzzles that teach various concepts in a structured way, which is rare for something created with such a strict time limit. Very nicely done :)
Excellent puzzle!! Nicely executed! Brings me back to the good old time of playing baba is you
Nice one ! I like the different levels you get to play here !
But I'm a little confused at level 15, you can sometimes push the rocks submerged by lava. I'm pretty sure it's some sort of bug.
I absolutely loved playing this game! The puzzles were interesting and it definitely seemed like there was a heavy inspiration from Baba is you. I really enjoyed playing this.

Really creative and fun! None of the puzzles were boring or infuriating and I found myself eager to solve every single puzzle that came my way. There was a small amount of bugs I encountered, but nothing bad enough to hinder my enjoyment. Great work!
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!
