Game Description
You wake up in a strange laboratory and must find a way to escape alive !
How does your game tie into the theme?
One of the levers open the exit door, so you expect the levers to do that but they do other things that you didn't want.

I think the game shined when it wasn't tricking you, like the floor the drops you into space. But I liked the idea of the levers doing different things and having to figure out how to use the effects in order to get out. Overall, I liked it though.
I felt I shouldn't make too many levers that kills the players, not really funny multiple times. I'm glad to see you enjoyed the game and that you liked the "using the levers seemingly not useful to your advantage" part, I should really focus on that part if I make another game like that ! Thank you for playing !
Really enjoyable little platformer/puzzler! Love that you did all of the graphics– tiny human is really cute! Appreciated the generous coyote-timer and thought it was really well scoped for a game-jam!
Thank you, i'm glad you enjoyed it !
All the consequences of pulling levers. The game ended up being quite short, especially considering all the things the levers did. Funny seeing myself on screen. Great interpretation of the theme. Enjoyed it. Would have played more.
Thank you very much !
Great game! It was tight and polished. This could easily be expanded into a fun series of levels.
Thank you for playing !
I had lots of fun playing the game, and i loved the style
Thank you very much !
Great take on the theme, and a really interesting puzzle game! I would love more levels, I think there's a lot of potential with this and it's a great entry.
A few points of feedback from me would be that they movement maybe felt a bit too fast/light, and it was a little frustrating that death would reset the level entirely, though I suppose if at the start you open the door you couldn't just teleport back there. If the game had been longer there might have needed to be another reset point but as it stands it was quite short and quick enough to repeat.
Good fun!
Thank you for all the feedback ! Yeah I feel like I could have done better for when the death happens but lacked the time to work on it. I'll keep the "too fast/light" in mind if I ever continue this game. Thank you for playing, I'm glad you had fun !
I had fun playing this and enjoyed the responsiveness and sound effects of interacting with levers! It was exciting to see what each lever would do and how that would connect to solving the puzzles. It fits well with the theme, good work!
Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it !
Great fun! I loved pulling the levers and seeing what would happen. The puzzles were fun and not too hard.
Thank you for playing !
I really enjoyed this! Good puzzles, straightforward gameplay, great use of the theme! Great job!
Thank you very much for your comments !
I got back home! Great little puzzle game, despite the simple graphics I had a lot of fun playing! Great to see another entry!
Thank you very much for checking my game ! I'm glad you enjoyed it !
