So there's a guy.

He saw this neat girl who was attending a game development workshop the other day at school, and he just found out about Ludum Dare the other day.
Put 2 and 2 together, and he figures that she would be a nice person to have to do the jam with. But how is he gonna get in contact with her though?

After some asking around ( not creepy at all, hehe ), he managed to get the girl's number.

You play as a Telephone Operator, who has to convey the right messages to the phone using skills and puzzle solving skills in this game by moving blocks around and making sure they're 'delivered' in the right order to make sure the girl doesn't get too creeped out!

Gameplay:
Move around, push blocks and crates and throw them around, kinda physics based, and maybe a little frustarating sometimes, even for me hehe

Amazing, really simple looking and yet still difficult puzzles. Really like the concept, and the telephone operator character looks cute! :)

The concept is nice and could make a great game if continued. But the movement is a bit to slow and floaty for my taste. The later levels get to the point of being almost more tedious then fun, but that is probably my problem for playing to aggressive. Also some times the player character gets stuck in the falling animation when landing on cardboard boxes. It is not game braking as moving to the left or right fixes it but it gets annoying. For the time available you made a solid game.

Also great graphics and music :D.

The character art is really good! I liked the key change in the BGM. The puzzles were interesting too; I think if the character moved a bit faster then the pacing would have been perfect. Nice work!

That was a really cute idea, and well done. I enjoyed running the puzzles, didn't finish though. Moving platforms and stacks of words showed up and I noped out lol.

Really nice idea, puzzle platformer. The movement is really floaty, and at times you get stuck... Also, it re-started instead of going to level 2 the first time I played. You should polish it post-jam, it's definitely got potential.
