Great Concept, Cool puzzles, Awesome graphics and the I liked the suprise that the notes made you die. Love it :)

Developer

It's pretty fun and the game design is soooo well done, i noticed how you teach the player how to play (the notes in the beggining showing a cursor) it was pretty pretty good.

Maybe the part with the ice block thingy it's kind of confusing but everything is really well made.

Good job!

Developer

Ah thank you so much!

Its a pretty good game, i like the visuals, i am really into puzzle games and this was a pretty simple puzzle game, i was kind of confused at first that the sticky notes made you die, it kind of didnt make sense to me but i just went with it and it wasn't too bad, good job!

Developer

Thank you! The original concept was that your weight makes the sticky notes fall down immediately, leading to defeat, but I didn't have the time to figure out how to implement a cutscene like that haha.

I love pixel art, so you already had me there.


In retrospect, I guess seeing the mouse cursor should have clued me into the fact you have to click the sticky notes, but I still think it could have been communicated better. The first note had a drawing that didn't mean anything, so why would the arrow be instructions? My brain put both on the same bucket as decoration.

And sticky notes are just not dangerous, which made it hard to realize I was dying to them. I even thought the drawings themselves were killing me somehow.


Still, very cute and fun. And I didn't find any bugs except the intended one.

Developer

Haha, you're completely right I was like oh god, I'm out of time to do a proper tutorial level well guess I'll draw a cursor on the sticky notes and cross my fingers for trial and error! The original story concept was that the bug would make the post its too heavy and it would fall off the wall, alerting the room's occupants(defeat), but I didn't know how to make a cutscene like that in this time frame. Thanks for the feedback and the kind comments!

Oh, I get it now. To be fair, if the note fell off the screen with my character before the reset I think that would be more than enough to explain it. Yes, it's a bug, but falling off the screen before a reset is a time-honored tradition.

And as for the tutorial, I think the second note threw me off more than anything else.  It's impossible to know now, but I think leaving only one note, the one with the arrow, would have made it easier to get it quickly. Still, props for working word-less toturials. Most people here can read English, of course, but it's always nice to see language-independent game.

Developer

Thank you haha I'll keep that in mind when designing such things!

Submitted

This was really fun!! The pixel art is really cute and the atmosphere of the game is so nice and chill! The puzzles were also quite fun too (and my pea brain struggled with the last one), I love it!
