wow what a cool mechanic! it took me quite a while to understand some of the rules, but a lot of the puzzles were quite fun when you put two and two together! i like the gradual increase in mechanics, it made the puzzles have two parts to them, one where you play around to figure out how something exactly behaves and the other where you figure out how to solve the actual puzzle. im really thankful that there is an audio cue to tell you when things have changed or else i would have been completely stumped xd.
as an owner of only one braincell, the puzzles were quite challenging (unfortunately got stuck on the level with the introduction of the table). i think it could help if the levels were more self-contained and smaller imo. some of the puzzles had you navigating through empty rooms before reaching the important parts of the puzzle. this would often result in me feeling lost and disoriented while trying to both navigate the level and keep in mind what i'm looking at, then suddenly i would hear the audio indicator for something changing and i wouldn't really know what happened if i didn't pay attention well enough.
a lot of the puzzle games design themselves in a way where all the information and elements needed to solve the puzzle are always shown to you in one screen (something like Baba is You or other sokoban-like games) in order to allow for the player to think about the big picture. of course this game in particular is designed with playing around with sight, so it operates on players not having complete information all the time, but players will still have to remember where things are. if the important puzzle elements are spaced too far away from each other, it risks the players forgetting the information they learned while moving towards their destination (that player is me xd). by cutting away the excess rooms to reduce travel time, it will allow me to more actively engage with the puzzle and plan out my solution better. either that or this isn't an issue at all and i just suck lmao.
still i really like the idea and had fun racking my brain on how to solve the levels that i did manage to solve. the art assets are really well put together and i like the chromatic aberration effect when you are in relative danger (its a really nice touch). also like the lore dump in the beginning, really sells the mood. great job!
