Interesting platformer! I included it in my Toy Box Jam 3 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Developer

Cool video! and thank you for playing :)

I really like this kind of puzzle, first setting up a solution and then seeing if it works. Interresting puzzles, using ordering and timing effectively. I think with a few more puzzle elements the possibilities are almost endless. I also like how the story and atmosphere are integrated in the game, so it becomes more than just a puzzle., 

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! :)

That last one was tricky! This was a pretty clever puzzle game! Well done! I really struggle with making puzzles beyond "press this button to open the door."

I would love to see more of this. It would maybe be nice to have a fast forward button - maybe if you hold space it will move at 3x speed (you could just call your update loop 3x per draw call). I really enjoyed this!

Developer

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :) 
The fast forward button sounds like a good addition

This is a clever little puzzle game, really took me by surprise. The way you had to find the solutions for each level, with it resetting each time reminded me a little of Braid. I liked how you put a bit of story in too, it makes things much more satisfying when you complete the game.

I felt like I got quite lucky on a couple of puzzles, it feels like there's quite a few ways of doing them. I'd happily play some more levels of this, great work!

Thank you and I'm glad that you liked it :)

The puzzle mode stopped resetting properly after the hero hit spikes.

Also, please provide an in-game way to quit from any part of the game if you're going to use fullscreen. 

Developer

 Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into them
