Pretty cool game, the puzzles were fun and inventive. I played it with my gf and we both really like them (she helped me solving a few)
I really miss having something to show you in which level you are, like in the level or in between, the music didn’t work for me but it did in a new game.
Overall good game!
Thank you for you kind words! Yeah, there might be a little bug with the music cuz it kinda got rushed at the end, but we'll fix that after the gamejam.. and perhaps make the pause menu show you your current level :) Glad you had fun!
This is a really fun puzzle game. well designed and executed!
Thank you kindly!
Fun puzzler and quite nice level of challenge and mechanics thaught piece py piece. Great job!
Thank you! Hope you had fun :)
This reminds me of the ice floor puzzles in Pokemon: Gold/Silver/Crystal/HeartGold/SoulSilver, except this one is a lot trickier. Great job on this game!
Thank you for your feedback! :)
That was a lot of fun! Definitely felt the portal vibes in the game's style :)
Haha I suppose you're right about the portal vibes :) Thank you for playing our game!
I absolutely love these styles of puzzles games
Thank you very kindly! :)
Ice cave from pokemon puzzles always break my brain but I had a good time with this one! Well done!
Very glad you had a good time :) Thank you lots!
Good puzzles! That’s pretty hard to accomplish, but I liked them
Thank you for checking in and trying our game!
This is very good.
Polished, smooth, and challenging. Very well done :)
Thank you for playing our game and the kind words! :)
I was promised puzzles that made me actually think, so I was curious. Played up until level 9 before needing to take a break. All in all, pretty neat entry and nice twists on the ice sliding puzzle genre! I think the puzzle design could be a little better though. In some of the earlier levels, I did not need to use all the pistons available, which felt odd. But my main gripe is that a decent amount of time I spent thinking "oh no, I forgot to do that thing while I was down there, now I have to set up again using a sequence of 10 moves" which got a little repetitive after a while. Having undo would help a lot here. Also, I felt some elements were added to the puzzles to make them harder instead of more interesting, which after playing and designing a good number of puzzles myself is something I don't like very much anymore. Still, you definitely got a good grasp of how to design interesting puzzles, so I'd like to see that developed a further!
Thank you for sharing allat' with us. Our Level Designer sometimes can be specific with a mindset "hard = more interesting" however I think he proved that right while designing these :) Thanks for checking in and playing our game, we really appreciate it!
I am sorry that puzzles kinda dissapointed you. I didn't have much time left to design them so there are some unintended routes and I may have a little bit underestimated difficulty lol. We will probably update this game in the future and maybe redesign levels. Thanks for the feedback!
THIS is so far the BEST game i've tried this jam. loved it a lot, thanks for making it!
Thank you so much!! :D
Damn these are hard puzzles, but I can see these turn into a very good casual puzzle game. Also you might want to add a feedback when the cube can’t obviously move but the player is still pressing in that direction. Something like a sound effect or a visual effect would make this game really pop out.
Sound good! Thank you for your feedback :)
The puzzles eventually got too tough for me, but they're well-designed! They really make you think differently about how to approach these "sliding ice" puzzles. Good work!
Glad you liked the puzzles :)
i liked the music. i liked the introductory dialogue. i stopped on level 4 because the music stopped. and i was kinda stumped too. the piston system was odd, i didnt understand why is was depicted like an accordion since its function appeared to be to stop me. i wasnt sure the pistons relation to the cube besides preventing movement but maybe there is one?
Hmm.. not sure why the music stopped. And yes Pistons main function is to prevent cube from going further and we're sorry it might've been kinda odd to you but we've used it very differently in further levels! No matter if your review was more positive or negative we still thank you for playing our game.
CUBE IS LIFE,CUBE IS EVERYTHING
In Cube we Trust
Love the Idea and the puzzles are very well designed, the difficulty curve is well thought and everything is explained well. The music is nice too!
Thoughtfully designed puzzles with intuitive mechanics. I'm a fan.
Great game! Really tricky. I got the hang of the way of thinking in the end I believe. I ended up on a grey screen. Maybe I finished all levels?
Yeah you did! Sorry for the grey screen, gratz!
Interesting take on the theme and great puzzle design, maybe as my only complain the difficulty curve of the game is not well balanced (In my opinion), Great Job.
Very clever puzzle game, reminds me of the classic pokemon ice puzzles but with scaling twists. Dual purpose walls/pistons made me feel smart lol. Thanks for the game!
Haha you're so real for the pokemon ice puzzles :)
