Looking for Feedback on new playable demo

Hi, I just completed a playable demo of my game 'Eldritch's Gate' (working title) and I'm looking for feedback.

I have made 14 levels so far, which would be the start of world 1 .
Also, it saves your progress so you don't need to finish it in one sitting, you can continue from where you left off in the Scene Selection screen.

Short Description: 
Utilize drag-and-drop powerups to make your player jump, dash, or change directions strategically. Try to get to the exit with the less amount of powerups as you can.

I'm looking for any feedback for:

  1.  Overall gameplay experience.
  2.  Level flow (difficulty curve etc.)
  3.  Gameplay mechanics difficulty (should I include more helpful hints, is it easy to understand what to do etc.)
  4.  Any bug or issues with the game.
  5.  Length of the current levels (how long did it take you to complete it, it will help me know how many per world I should include)
  6.  Suggestions on improvements and anything you hated or liked.
  7.  Any other feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Cool game! I don't undrestand why no one still wrote anything. Maybe browser version could help more with collecting more feedback as it would require less steps from the player to try the game.

I left a comment on the game itself. I only got to level 5, but still can say that it feels pretty good and challenging. I was confused a little at level 4 because there's realy no need to set the reverse block. Maybe removing a  wall and forcing a player to set the reverse block could help. I ended up completing level without reverse block for this reason

Hi, thanks again for checking it out! 
I don't have a browser version since the UI breaks unless it's full screen, I'm new to Unity. ..been trying to fix that for a while! 
For level 4, I just added the turn around block so that so people know that both walls and that block can be used to turn around. But yeah you don't need to use it.
Did you end up using the Hint icon (the light bulb)? It shows a suggested placement of blocks to finish the level if you get stuck.

For 4th level I did it without hints, but then went back, saw hints and realised that I did the same thing but without reverse block :)
