Niiiice, at first i was like "wtf is going on" but that quickly changed into "hell yeah im smart".

Thanks :)
In this LID I wanted to experiment with progression and teaching mechanics implicitly.

Geeeeebus.
Took a bit for my brain to get wtf was going on and not putting any instructions and figuring it out was very interesting in itself btw, nice one.

Afterwards, it was enjoyable and did what it was meant to perfectly.
Sadly, my brain just melted on level 4 (I need more sleep), so I cannot comment on end condition yet but it's one of the few entries where I'll come back to it to play again.

Very nice entry, very special. Kudos!

Wow! You nailed the idea of teaching mechinics implicitly! And by doing this, you give the player a sense of "I figured it out on my own" which is just a great feeling. Though I gave up perhaps a bit early - couldn't do level 4

At the start, I wasnt sure what was going on, but later figured it out. Very nice man :D

Really great game! I did not understand anything at the start, but after a level or two it became clear. Very good progression.

I couldn't get past level 3 (couldn't switch running dude). Maybe a quick bugfix?

Really cool discovering the gameplay. Nice job! I enjoyed it and the puzzles are engaging. I also like that it is graphically minimalist.

The .rar file is a compressed file.

Nice concept!
I got to lvl 3 and I think that the game bugged... or maybe I'm doing something wrong. The first column of silhouettes keeps moving no matter what I do. Pressing the space bar doesn't change a thing. :/ Maybe you'd like to have a look at that.

Anyway, up until lvl3, I really enjoyed the challenge!

The puzzles are really clever once you understand what to do. It's nice seeing one of these deep games once in a while.

What a strange game. I went to level -9. It was enough. But I like the concept.

Okay, you made me go "wait, what?.. oh... OOOOHh!" and that is awesome. But the mechanic doesn't change after that and the feeling dissipates after a couple of levels. Good job, though!

As someone has already commented, level 3 may have a bug. I keep pressing space and nothing happens. Anyway, I liked the concept so much. As you said above, it teaches you how to play implicitly in a very smart way. Well done!
