Awesome, one of the best games in this jam. I got to level 18, before getting bored. The puzzles are okay, although some are too easy. The downside is that 4D levels take some time to do, manipulating all the blocks, but I'm not sure how to improve that. I would experiment with mouse control, if it makes controlling the character/blocks faster.
Suggested improvements:
More and longer music tracks
More puzzle mechanics and special blocks, like portals, magnets, 2x2 blocks
9/10
Going into the 5th dimension (rotating the room structure using the mouse) for a special level would be interesting too
i was actually planning on having the 5th and 6th dimension involved at one point, but it wasn't feasible with the time limit. it would basically be a grid of grids, sort of like the switch from 2d to 3d but with 4 4d boards instead
...and then a grid of the 4 4d boards :) Ok, that would be probably too complex.
Let me know if you're going to expand on this, or make a similar game.
I think this is an amazing idea! I only got to level 14 because I wanna try some other games in these last few hours, but I will definitely be going back to it!
The controls were a bit hard to get used to and figure out (took me a bit to know how to teleport boxes between dimensions). I only got to see the 3D levels, didn't get to 4D, but I did notice the music change and add a bit more "depth" to it when I got to the first 3D level so that was neat! Still, it fealt like a bit of a repetitive music, maybe the track is a bit too short for my liking (or perhaps I'm just very slow at figuring out the puzzles haha).
Very good job here! I really enjoyed this!
Rad, great basis for a puzzle game here.
I loved this game. It jumps straight in, explains a simple concept, then presents it in a complex way. It layers on such simple concepts kind of like "Papers, Please", and you actually learn how to play as you reach the end of the game. It's concepts are beautifully simple, and it's level design is extremely straightforward. It's lean look and feel helps me focus on the puzzles more - I appreciate that a lot, too.
I wasn't a 100% sure how the "built to scale" aspect was integrated until I reached the 4th dimension - that was also very well done.
I can't suggest anything to improve on, because I'm not sure if there is anything.
This is great! Kudos, I really wish to be this good at puzzle design someday.
I'm surprised!! This is a fully fleshed out puzzle game, and it's rare to find one in a jam... I liked it alot, will play more on my personal time!!
I'll feature it on Tomorrow's livestream!!
It's a great concept, minimalist graphics, sure, but nice and the sounds are pretty cool. Good job!
Love the Idea and the minimal graphic style!
4x4x4x4 is a great little puzzle game. I had fun going through the levels.
Although, I got stuck at Lv.10 Tunnel and didn't know what to do. Other than that, it was a fun experience
This is a really great little game, I love it, but man is it hard to look at the pulsing for long periods of time
