Orange Island is a puzzle game where you have to carefully plan out your path. With every move you make certain tiles will fall away and you will slowly run out of space to move! (Special Thanks to Ben Tupou https://twitter.com/lompsyfor his amazing work and inspiration!)
How to Play: You need to reach the doors to progress onto the next puzzle. Doors require you collect all the Keys in a puzzle before you can move onto the next one. And you can't use a door if you leave any of your friendly Orange Jellies behind! But you can leave behind any Bad Apples you might find.
Controls: Use the Arrow Keys or WASD to move. If you get stuck, in a puzzle just press ENTER to restart it. Hold TAB and press left or right to cycle through the puzzles. (Backspace to restarts the game.)
I did not get as many puzzles done as I would have liked, but I hope you enjoy what is there. (P.s. the puzzles loop back around to the start once you have completed them all.)
Thank you so much for time, I hope you have fun!

I made a last minute edit I fixed a bug where puzzles could still be completed if you fell off the level. I was having a hard time getting onto the Ludum Dare site, so hopefully putting the edit here will be good enough. And at the time I didn't understand how this submission process worked, so I made a post about my game, but I didn't post it "as a game" which is what I'm doing now. Aside from the previously mentioned bug fix I haven't made any changes to the game.

The camera is a bit jittery tho, and maybe you should show the controls when the player is out of moves ! Good work ;)
One of the best game i've played so far in the Jam.
Graphic and sound effects are top! really loved the style. the game is fun and enjoyable. With a bit of polishing, i would see it priced on the market.
I also really like how you design your levels to introduce new mechanics step by step. Nicely done!
Loved the puzzle designs, It was very intuitive and smart.
the art is cute as well, I'd probebly try to make litte more contrast to the key item.
The sounds fits the game well, and an ambient music could make it even better!
Really soild, loved it! :)
It's a bit short now but there is still potential to make it a much larger game.
