Do you have any details on what didn't work? We'd like to make an updated build later.

i completed a puzzle inside a yellow piece but when i dragged out the second red piece, nothing happened, and when i left the puzzle, the yellow piece was still there.

oops, sounds like a bug. I'll have to get that fixed in the next build. Thanks for sharing!

We missed connecting a signal, but this has now been fixed with Inner Piece 1.1!

I don't see how this game fits the theme "Built to scale".

Not often I run across recursive games that do things well.

Unfortunately I got stuck on the first puzzle. The yellow piece I decided to attack as it was the one that looked like it would give me a progression path I couldn't complete. Two of its yellow bricks would do nothing and while I removed the third just fine, I still couldn't get the red block past the last vertical blue piece.

could you screenshot the level where the yellow pieces did nothing? We'll try to fix it after ratings are finished. 

Thanks for playing!

This was the best I could do:


With an alternative way of moving one block out of the way:

Both of the yellow blocks here don't block any other block from moving (upper left one: entirely, you don't need to interact with it at all and it could be gray. lower right one: only in some positions including its initial position, it could be blue).

This was one of the problematic puzzles, and it's now been fixed with Inner Piece 1.1!

Oookaay. Another one.


Moving the red piece back to the left to slide that leftmost one down to allow the horizontal one to shift out of the way undoes the solution. But it can't move to the right because that vertical piece is in the way regardless of its position.

Fantastic idea although the puzzles are too difficult for my simple brain. It could be good if the puzzles become less challenging the deeper you go.

Yeah, we tried to pick the easier levels that were designed for the deepest layers, but it turns out the difficulty level wasn't that different. 😆
