On the Origin of Block
source is on git hub!
On the Origin of Block is a 2D platformer.
Your goal is to mate blocks together to get the right shape to unlock doors and to reach the goal. To do that you need to solve puzzles.
This was my first ever Ludum Dare, hope you like it.
Any feedback is welcome!
Note: There was a bug with the game that ruined it so I pulled it out of the 48 hour comp and fixed the bug and resubmitted it into the 72 hour jam. Fixed this up after work today so I had a little time to add a few more levels too!

Overall, the idea is not bad but I find the gameplay not smooth enough (f.e. the collisions between blocks, or the fact that i don't need to have exactly the same shape to fill the block in order to use it) and a little bit confusing.
I also had some time to add a few more levels.
Would be interesting to see where this goes!
There's a control issue in that mating requires the use of the left shift key, but the game doesn't specify that the right shift doesn't work, so I bumbled around for abit.
The music adds a lot to the game too.
I played the whole game.
