There is a super duper secret level, can you find it?
Arrow keys or WASD to move.
There are 19 (+1 secret) levels in the game.
Two levels seems tricky to some people (I guess it depends of your mindset) but for most people it comes naturally. Here are some clues: level 8: Think about what level 1 taught you. level 9: Act like in level 8. If you get stuck hit a red square to reset ;)
I like the mechanics and I was really happy to discover extra levels after the secret ones. Levels are nicely designed and I like a lot the ones where the player has to decide to release red squares at the right moment.
I really like this one. The mechanics are tight, the puzzles are well designed, and the graphics/audio fit perfectly. Usually I try to offer some kind of suggestion for improvement, but this is pretty much complete. Also, wonderful secret level! Great job!
This is my favourite so far. I think it is the winner. I love how thoroughly you explored the idea. It struck me this game is just like old first person shooters e.g
I feel stupid for getting stuck on the level with two rows of red above and below you, until I realised that I didn't *have* to collect the green block and release them...
Excellent entry! I *love* how the level design introduces you to the mechanics and elements of the game one by one, with no need for a tutorial or any text at all! This is an unprecedented level of design polish for a 48-hour entry! You Sir, have my like, and five of my stars!
Great game. You did a great job at exploring such a simple concept and creating such a wonderfully polished game. I liked the little touches such as adding grid-movement to the level with the 1-square hole. The pacman level was a nice surprise too (the level after it reminded me a little of frogger too).
The only slight criticism would be that the music, while rather good, got a little repetitive after a while and I (being pretty terrible at video games) found dodging some of the red square too hard on some of the later levels. Still a superb game and amazing work for 48 hours.
Very nice. Probably the most interesting "blocky" game so far this round. To those having issues with many red blocks: Try to unlock them the right moment so they just move with others rather than limiting your movement even more.
Again thanks a lot for the kind comments. This is so motivating that I'm now working on a post compo version with more levels!
Canyon: My train of though came more from adventure/exploration games. But yeah that's similar. Get item X to unlock area that allows to get item Y to unlock another area, etc...
Karlin: Funny that you spotted the different type of movement algorithms. I spent lot of time trying to find best way for player movement but ended up having two separate classes: one for normal levels and one for grid based levels.
You mention frogger and that's exactly that. I got the idea for the level by thinking about this game. I also wanted to have a space invader like levels but forgot about it.
Wonderful game! One of the most playable games I've encountered yet. So simple, yet so much fun. It has a very minimal, retro feel to it, which I love coming from that era. I got stuck on those red boxes at first, but then realized how simple it really was. Excellent job.
One of my favorites so far. Great use of the theme, nice clean & effective graphics and smart level design. You should be proud of this one, I would be.
The frustration was high on that tricky level of yours... I was sure I had to time the movement perfectly and hit the exact pixels. Tried that at least 20 times before I realized the trickiness :D
Ran into a bug with the room in your 2nd screenshot, the yellow barrier doesn't go away when you hit the yellow trigger. This definitely fits the theme!
Excellent puzzler. Good job including tutorials... Requires a bit of thinking, but clue for 8 is good. Level number somewhere be a nice to have. Well done!
Very cool puzzle game. I managed to beat it I just don't know if I did find the secret. Probably not, right. Controls are good, music is fine and the levels are overall pretty well thought out.
I thought it was well designed and had a good mixture of challenges! Also, that secret level completely caught me by surprise, but was worth getting to.
I really enjoyed this puzzler. Simple concept, but also really fun. Some of the later levels really made me think about when was the best time to release the barriers.
Hey! I got stuck on level 4! Just make a reset button. I liked the idea. I used to do like that in Paint :P I think you could create more puzzles, but you relied on avoiding instead... that`s your choice anyway.
Madball: Aye. Yes level 4 is broken in the sense that you could get blocked and there are no enemies thus you can't reset by suicide. But why the heck you didn't moved straight :D
davidpeter: Believe me, if you would have found the secret level, you would know it for sure ;)
this one is awesome btw
