The Box
In The Box you have to get the player to the goal, but you can't control the player.
Every 10 seconds the box rotates and makes the boxes and the player fall. You can move the green boxes using your mouse. That's pretty much it, if you're confused right now, don't worry, you'll get it as soon as you play it.

excellent game, good levels, 10 sec rules well thought, had a good time (currently stuck on lvl8!)

Really creative idea! Felt satisfying to solve the puzzles, even if I stumbled into a solution or 2 haha. I beat every one, would love to see more in the future!

A funny puzzle game. I feel the theme interpretation, while not that unique, provides nice urgency to plan and act. Simple sound effects could've been a nice touch and the only thing I really think is missing is restarting the level, in case you realize you're at a dead end.
Good work!
Good work!

Great puzzle game! I enjoyed it and the theme use was very good. Definitely something you could take further and could work well as a mobile game if you are interested in that. Would definitely play more levels!

@coderaurus Thanks for the feedback, there actually is a "Restart Level" button at the bottom :)

@lukas0842 There was? Oof, I'm blind! Thanks.

Very interesting puzzle game, 10s of time just let me calm down to think about the strategy, if you can quickly replay the game will be better

@linwenhao I'm glad you liked the game, if you want to quickly replay the level you can press the "Restart Level" Button, or while in game press space to instantly rotate the cube.

Fun puzzles! Maybe the instructions could be made into a pause menu so that the box could be made bigger?

I won \o/ what a great little puzzle game ^^ I really like it.
There's lots of room to make mistakes and still make it work, which you don't usually see in puzzle games, it's very forgiving without reducing the challenge. great game! :)

cool game, at first i was wondering why gravity wasnt constant, but it fits in with the mechanics of that game as it. Well done!

I got stuck at level 7, so I checked the source to see how many I had left, and saw 9...
was a bit surprised to see a level 10 after I beat 9 :laughing:
it's a fun game! the later levels felt a bit more chaotic, but overall they were all well-designed :)

Great puzzle game, this gameplay is very interesting ! (level 3 was not easy for my brain haha^^)

this was deeply clever and a great idea well executed. I loved the core concept and you iterated through the levels really well. The challenge was just perfect.

Great game! Some well designed puzzles, and the difficulty progression was spot on. Nice work putting this together in 48 hours.
ccollider5 Oct 2022, 13:43
Awesome job, tightly designed and engaging!
LDJam user 2806245 Oct 2022, 16:43
It's tricky puzzle. I like it!
finntastico5 Oct 2022, 18:27
Oh wow what a fun and innovative puzzle game! I really enjoyed it :relaxed:

A solid puzzle game for 48h. Idea was executed well and there were no bugs in sight. Having instructions visible on the sides was helpful. Level designs were well thought out, later ones got quite tricky but still manageable. The automatic rotation every 10 seconds fit the theme but felt a bit tacked one. Thankfully there was also an option to rotate instantly. Could have used some sounds and music, but great job nonetheless.

Great puzzle game!! The level and puzzle design is perfect and I think it's really impressive! Amazing submission

This was a really well thought out puzzle game!
It was cute, snappy, and once I understood what to do I was really engaged.
My "room for growth" comment is limited to only saying some audio would be nice.
Well done. :D
