Bro this game is fire, you did a so much great job, the designs are incredible, the implementation for the tutorial is amazing, the transitions are so smooth, and the gameplay is easy to understand ! Good job, just one thing, maybe we shouldn't be able to take the box if it's too big ?

Developer

Thanks for the encouragement and design feedback. That could be an interesting mechanic although in my mind it wasn't mass that changed it was density however mechanics that used density had to be cut. But mass-based puzzles could make for interesting challenges and conflicts. Thanks for playing and leaving feedback. :D

That screen transition was so smooth! And the puzzles are really smart. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing I'm glad you liked the puzzles. :D

This is fantastic!
Very polished, I loved the music and the wonderful art of that little sand mage and the sand reload animation was great too, they totally set the right mood for the game, it fits the theme perfectly and the puzzles were challenging, they made me think and I felt really good solving the levels and making it to the end, kinda had like "what if the old DOS games were created today" type of cool vibe.
This is my favorite type of game and  I really really enjoyed it, amazing job! :)

Really pretty style and fun premise. I however got stuck pretty early on (level where tutorial says R to Restart, ESC for main menu). I moved around and clicked various switches, and saw the paths light up, but nothing else was changing. I imagine maybe you need to press several at once, but if that is the case it would be good to have some hints as to which ones!

(Oh, nevermind... I figured it out now)

Thank you for playing and reviewing :D
