It took me a little to understand what was going on, as well as the power limitations (though I realise that would've been clear if not for a last export bug), but the moment it clicked I went into pure flow state right until the black screen at the end.

The visuals drew me in, and then the puzzles felt challenging and I felt clever doing them, while never feeling frustrating either. I'm also a sucker for making something feel valuable and legendary like you did for the final moment returning the Orb of Reversal.

Great submission

I'm so happy you've enjoed the game :)

"(though I realise that would've been clear if not for a last export bug)"
Yes. Who would have thought that uploading untested code with 30 seconds on the clock is a bad idea... (Jokes aside it taught me a huge lesson and made me reconsider some parts of my gamedev workflow/approaches)

"the puzzles felt challenging and I felt clever doing them, while never feeling frustrating either"
I've actually never designed any puzzle levels before, so I've decided to make puzzles with multiple solutions + give 1-2 more reverses near the last 2-3 levels. 

" like you did for the final moment returning the Orb of Reversal."
Yeah! I was also surprised how it turned out.  For this scene: Artist drew a pedestal --> Musician made a choir --> Sfx designer made a sound, which is played after placing the Orb (he also suggested that player should place the Orb on the pedestal) --> I've put it all together

Sounds like the design worked then! Glad you've got that positive attitude towards the workflow, and that's really cool how many people brought the scene into being!
