Fun and entertaining game! It's like a simplified version of Snake. There might have been another game I played on mobile years ago that was similar. Dashing felt a little clunky, I would've preferred to just dash in the direction I'm looking at, but I understand this would make it difficult to use when there is not enough space to move around, maybe make it move like on Gameboy games? You can rotate the character with WASD, but it you hold that direction, you start moving instead of just rotating around on the tile, just an idea.
Good work!

Thank you! Yeah the main concern was definitely in end game where you need to use dash to not die, but I like that suggestion. Someone else mentioned double-tap might work too, so I think maybe a combination of that and what you suggested could be better.

Great game! I really enjoy puzzle games, so I might be a bit biased here, but I had a lot of fun just chilling and playing for a while!

I think your game would benefit a lot from more animation and maybe a more intuitive way to dash, like a double-tap? space + direction was a bit difficult to figure out at first, but that's probably just me lol

Developer

Thank you! And yeah I was definitely struggling with the animations and controls for the dash, I didn’t think about double-tap though that sounds a lot more intuitive.

Like other comments have said, I really enjoyed how fun it was to replay levels. Most of the times I died were due to my own mistakes, so it was fun to try the levels again. Nice game!

Nice game! I eventually made a bad decision and got myself stuck :( but i really enjoyed and think i did pretty good. I liked the different patterns that would come through. maybe a couple different maps would be cool or a way to jump over black squares. Overall great job!

Thank you! And yeah that is a really good score I’m impressed.
