As Pressgoal mentioned, I could not get the game to start initially but I finally got it to work by pressing/releasing both buttons at the same time.

The concept is very interesting, how to have four directional movement with only two buttons :) I found the controls a bit difficult as there is no way to move down without first moving left, and no way to move up without first moving right. I guess that was part of the puzzle though and I'm not sure how that could be improved tbh.

The art style was basic but clean and easy to understand, and the voice audio effects were amazing ("CLICK" actually made me laugh out loud haha)

I couldn't get this game to start, I see that it says to press A and D, but that wasn't doing anything for me. I'm not sure if it's on my end, but I won't rate it unless I can get it to work.

P.S. I was able to get in by mashing A and D. The puzzles were really good. Intuitive, but with some nice complexity, and the sound effects were hilarious. I think I found a way to cheat and go up on a left wall by holding A, holding D and then quickly releasing and reholding A. That's on me for feeling happy about cheating instead of solving the last level though. The designs were all great!

Just FYI I had the same issue, but I found it worked if I pressed them and released at exactly the same time :)

Thank you. I tried again and wasn't able to do it on purpose, so I just mashed the buttons until it worked lol.

Thanks for the feedback. I want to tidy this up after the jam is over so I’ll take this into consideration. I started having issues with the start menu too, not sure what I did to cause it to need such precision

Love it! I had a momentary struggle with the controls, but it’s an interesting take on how to provide four-way movement with only two keys :) Really great effort for the time taken.

Absolutely loved this game! The controls were very easy to follow and the puzzles were extremely well thought out!
I did have to restart the last level a few because i got cocky and thought i'd cheese it :)

Well done dude!!! 5 stars for everything!
