Red Square by tetra
A game designed to be intuitive and easy to understand, with very little penalty for trying things out. My knack for inventively naming games comes off once again in LD42 in RED SQUARE.

Had a good time playing through your game, the graphics and soundtrack while being simplistic still felt really coherent - and the puzzle design was neat and smart without being difficult. (I'm a fan of ld-games, which I can actually finish!)
Sometime is kind of hard to tell the player from the stones
The idea fits the theme, and the technical part is solid (no game breaking bugs or major issues)
This really deserves a mobile version!
Thanks for your work, and have a nice stream

Also please do stream my game if you get a chance! :D
I looked at the gameplay footage and this is a really fun game mechanic, the levels are designed well and introduces new concepts in a simple and understandable way.
I like the pink walls that contract which creates a level of stress, maybe adding some other moving obstacles on the map would be interesting to create a more challenging game. :smiley:
Really good job. One of my favs so far!
The graphics are simple but really nice, the music is great too (even if a bit too loud imo) and the sounds fit well. That's the kind of game I can spend some time on.
The gameplay is correct, I didn't have any problem and it's really intuitive.
Great job! o/
Congrats!
I don't think speedrun really makes sense in puzzle games like this.
Nice level design, I enjoyed solving some of the puzzles!
I found the sound effects to be a bit annoying and distracting.
