Nice game with a simple concept but really tough to solve! Good job
Nice idea but took to long to figure out. Please put controls in description!
Nice entry! It was challenging so I had a hard time finishing some puzzles :) Good job ;)
Great puzzle game that takes a solid mind to solve. Great game :)
Okay, so I'm straight up terrible at this, but it's a really cool puzzle game!
Good job on this! :)
Thanks to all of you! We're actually working on bringing out a few new levels, possibly with a new mechanic.
Such a deep atmosphere, music is great as well as the puzzles. This reminds me old sokoban puzzle games. Great execution!
Nice game concept and execution, UI could use a bit more polish but overall a very nice game!
This game is tough! I'm surprised how much of a challenge you were able to provide through such a seemingly simple mechanic.
I think I may have encountered a bug with the tutorial messages, because it didn't tell me how to play the game until level 3 when it said "To recap" and finally told me the controls.
Thanks for the feedback, the text 'Press space to continue' disappeared. Should be fixed now!
Wow, kinda hard to get a grip of how to think. But a cool game nonetheless
Cool concept, the puzzles are tough and take a lot of thinking and trial and error to solve, so nice job.
Took me a while to get the hang of it, but it's a really well-done puzzler! Lovely graphics and audio too.

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
Great game, idea, and game itself are cool. well done!
