That's a cool game!

Here are some things I noticed while playing:
+ It's very easy to get stuck on corners or accidentally push boxes in an unintended manner (which probably has more to do with my skill, or the lack of thereof 😂 and not necessarily bad game design)
+ The music, while quite good at first, got annoying pretty fast
+ Giving the boxes and the exit an animation is a smart idea to make them visually stand out, despite everything being the same color

btw, how much training did it take to come up with that speed run?
