Not enough levels, but the concept is amazing!

Also I closed the door on top of myself a couple times and it made me stuck, that should count right :)

Submitted

I have successfuly failed, nice game!

Would love to see more levels and also I think there is more than one way to block yourself (e.g. I got myself stuck inside of the door) and the game doesn't count these as victory

Good work!

Submitted

Aww, just one level? Man, I love the concept so much and the first level is done so well. Would love to see a longer version of this.

Developer

I might make a longer version after the jam.

I love the concept of trying to softlock yourself. This is something I would absolutely play if it were a full game. I'm not sure if it was on purpose, but the robot's arm seemed to flail around and always move towards the bottom right, which made it difficult to control.

Developer

Yeah, the arm is really buggy. Sorry about that.

Hey, I tried to play the game but whenever I press c to go to the next level the game just closes (I assume it crashes).  Is there any way to fix that because the game looks cool and I really want to play it :)

Developer (1 edit)

Nope, that's the end of the game. I wasn't able to add any more levels, sorry :(

Submitted

Oh... damn, well I hope you make a full version after the jam! ;)

Submitted

It's obvious you didn't have enough time for other levels, but I loved the "a-ha" moment I got when I figured out how to get stuck. This would work well as a full game, although I imagine it's hard to design more complex levels like this. Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing my game! I do have a few more ideas for levels after the jam has ended.

Submitted

Nice, I would've liked another level or 2 tho

Developer

Thanks, I was planning on adding more levels but I ran out of time.
