That was very fun! The lore of "odd thing" was cute as well. Like herding sheep - interdimensional rule-changing sheep. Really reminds me of "This is the only level"-kinda games. The one with the elefant. I would totally play a longer version of this. Maybe with a little quicker movement speed ;D
glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the feedback! 😃
I had a lot of fun! The only rough part (that almost made me give up until I read the comments) was level 1, where I thought that the R key tip was just explaining how to restart the level if I get stuck, rather than the way forward. That may have been the puzzle but I think putting it too early confused me and initially turned me off of the game.
thanks for playing. My wife play tested and also got confused on the same part. Wanted to put it early to tell the player but it does cause confusion. Need to have a think of how to fix this. Maybe have the level name appear when you get to the gate.
I personally would keep play instructions separate from the level design. Even after I "figured it out", I assumed that the R key was just a gimmick for that level and was not actually useable in other levels.
that would be a much better idea. Thanks!
Fun game. For hard mode, don't look at (or like me, be too stupid to initially notice) the level names.
Thanks Ricky. Wish I had more time for more levels.
This is really cool and really creative - I love how bizarre the puzzles get, but while always being fair and clear about what you need to do and just stepping up over time.
Would love to see more!
Thanks! Was aiming for 15 levels but ran out of time.
