pretty confusing until i found a really imporant discovery: you can ROTATE the tiles, other than that cool game nice sfx and music, would replay if there was more levels

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I know I need a better tutorial for the game, I'm planning to do it after the voting.

And I do want to add more levels, so feel free to check it out again in the future!

A super enjoyable logistics puzzle game. Had some really good time designing my own roads while catching all the flies. Good job!

Nice idea for a puzzle game, and simple but neat 3D. I tried a similar idea but with bouncing mechanic.

Submitted(+1)

Enjoyment 4/5 - Really solid puzzle design if you're trying to go for all the flies. Had me stumped a few times though I wish it went a bit further with difficulty.

Concept 4/5 - A tried and true kind of puzzle game but with a new spin on it! Really like the car mechanic even if I wished it was a bit more used.

Presentation 4/5 - Really love the low poly style especially with the colors and shading. Combine that with some excellent music and everything is such a chill and relaxing experience. If this game has anything, it's good vibes.

Use of Limitation 4/5 - Simple counter but it works well to make you think about the paths through levels and make for an extra challenge. A good base mechanic for the game.

Overall, a wonderful little puzzle game that was the nice relaxing time I wanted out of it.

That was really fun. It did take me longer than I'd like to admit to realize you could spin the tiles, but I really should have read better. I didn't really experience any issues besides the time never going down, but that didn't impact my enjoyment

Really well made and enjoyable to play. Well done!!!

Thanks for the feedback!

Is the first time I heard about a problem with the timer, I'll check it out as soon as I can

Submitted

i think the ideea is super cool and i love it... but there are plenty of bugs and at first i struggled to understand how to play... it's a pity i think. nevermind, i rated it high cuz i'm confident that it would have been a ton of fun. bye

Developer

Hi, thanks for the feedback!

I'm aware of some of the issues the game has and I'm sorry it ruined your experience, I'll try to fix some of them today or during the week in case you wanna try it again another day.

Also, I'll appreciate it if you could tell me the exact bugs you found so I can fix them faster.

Submitted

sure i'm making a quick list of what i noticed so far. also, if you have time, please consider checking my game; yours is at least twice as better, but i'd like to know my mistakes too. however here you go:

-first thing, not a bug, you should add more detailed rules;

-then when the frog goes out of the map (like in the water) it gets stuck there and you can do nothing about it but closing and re opening the game;

-last, if you kill just one insect, all the sprites it the top right corner become colorful (even if just one is supposed too).

I'm sure there are more things i didn't notice/i forgot to tell you, but i still have 260+ game to rate so... yeah i'll play it more once the feedback time has ended. 

btw u didn't ruin my experience, dw! cya, have a good one

Developer

Thanks a lot! I check all of that as soon as I can.

And yeah, I do want to try all the games I can during the voting period so I'll try yours

Submitted

awesome! amazing! thanks

Submitted

Love the presentation! Would recommend a more in-depth tutorial, I found it difficult to understand what is going on. Also really enjoyed the music.

Developer

Thanks! the tutorial was something I really struggle with 'cause of the time. I try to make a better one post voting.

And the music is credited in the menu and the screenshots if you want to search the song on youtube

Nice looking game, well thought out puzzles. I had one issue where two tiles overlapped (red cross in the image). Where was the soundtrack from, I really liked it! Overall great looking game and some big brain puzzles.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

I totally miss those tiles, I´ll try it fix it today.

I pass the game but it's made my head burn for shure :D

Great game and everything in it :)

Don't wanna spoil last level so i don't comment it)))

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Thanks!

In the last level, if you are talking about a weird thing that happens, that's actually a bug that I couldn't fix. So at least I made the level winnable, but it is not how I designed it, I'll try to fix it post votings and include some things I didn't have time to add to the game.

Submitted

At the last level the thing I've meant is that I did finish the game by comeback to the start. Maybe it wasn't the right way to win the level :d

Developer(+1)

oh, yeah I was aware of that bug and it's already solved.

Thanks!
