How does your game fit the theme?
The role of the pause menu is traditionally to stop the game so you can go get a snack. I reversed the role of the pause menu so that you must use it in a creative way to reach the goal!

Very cool, using the UI elements for gameplay, really nice idea.
best game ive played so far
Very nice idea and great execution.
nice idea and turned out great!
Really cool idea fun game to play :)
INCREDIBLE. Nothing else to say, the idea is so simple and yet so great. It would be a perfect mobile game with infinite possibility for the gameplay, since each UI element could be a new mechanic. Amazing, well done!
This is incredibly smart! Didn't manage to complete it but really fun in the way that multiple UI component that makes sense in the game fit and work well together to form a puzzle!
Very epic idea! I enjoyed it.
amazing creativity and super good completion!
Great concept, loved the music too :)
A very clever idea!
Congratulations
Great game, fun challenging and very nicely presented. Great Job.
Amazing concept and execution! Very creative!
interesting idea!
I absolutely love the game
Super smart! The head bonking sound really gets me
Great fun! My only tiny bit of feedback is that I kept instinctively clicking spacebar to jump which paused/unpaused the menu. My muscle memory kept failing me :(
I'm amazed that you managed to build such a compelling puzzle game in this short a time. Building so many levels is impressive for a game that needs every solution to be so creative !
I like the concept and creativity of this game. Really amazing concept of the pause menu puzzle. I would really recommend someone to play this game!
This is great! I like how the menu works as a puzzle/platforming mechanic. The puzzles were challenging, but well-paced. Nice!
