I thought that was nice little puzzle game. I found it a little confusing at first what everything did but I guess that could be said for any game. After getting the hang of it, I found the puzzles pretty straight-forward.
Interesting idea for a puzzler, although the Q and W items seemed a bit similar in that you just have to time them right to stall the dungeoneer for a second. I'd definitely play a few more levels with a bit more complexity in.
Nice puzzle game! Pretty tough if you don't know what the items do to begin with, but relatively straight-forward after that. I like the simple pixel art, as well!
I love the use of theme, the fact that you have to get him there in a total of 10 seconds, not over, not under is pretty cool. Im not sure exactly how to do this but I included this game in my video compilation of LD27 games, if you wanna check it out :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQmE1DEkQd4
I liked the twist on the classical turn based, get to the goal by placing objects type of game, that was interesting. The controls would be better if the blocks could be chosen with the number keys and that spacebar would start the game and R would reset.
The idea is great, and the sound is spectacular, but it has a few frustrations, like not being able to see how many of a block you have, and not having any timing indicators.
Good use of the theme, confuse at first, but I was able to complete first level after several tries ! Liked it !

Returning an item would be nice, instead of resetting the whole level. But besides that you made a very good game. But I think there could be more interesting obstacles.
The core mechanic here is interesting and has a lot of potential. The levels are a bit on the easy side, and it would help with an indicator of how many times you can use each item. I also got a feeling that I didn't always finish them "the right way".
Would be interesting to see where you can take this. Nicely done, and great take on the theme. :)
