Good job! Great concept and fun level design. My only too gripes were the very short audio loop and i don't know that I see a reason for the player character to rotate. Fun game, hope to see an expanded version down the line!

Coll little puzzler. I like how you used very simple graphics but made an entertaining game with it. Just two remarks. With this simple of a game a html5 port would be appreciated i think this is very playable in the browser. And second i did get a bit crazy with the very short sound clip being replayed, maybe next time add a mute button?

I noticed that you can sometimes double jump when you lie down, which is how I beat the first level without warping, so I was a bit confused about the game mechanics at the start. Overall a nice game, I had a fun time beating the levels.

Fun game, I finished it. Some of the puzzles were neat, while some I just solved using brute force. The music really needs to be mutable though. A good tip is that you don't need to have music. Just have atmospheric sound instead, it would make the game a lot more pleasant. Anyway, good job!

I love the puzzle design, it's very clever. I think this game could be very fun if you were to fix a couple of problems with the physics.

@mincho The double jump problem comes from the typical ground check using raycast. I could check if player collides ground but then he could do wall jumps.

@cleitoneldorn @aterlamia @p0l4r Yeah... I know that music is bad and i could make mute button but i didn't thought about that

@aterlamia I would like to make a mobile game from that with joystick.

Fun game! There are a couple little things in this game I like, such as the way the shapes cast shadows and the way the block turns to its side (not sure if intentional or not). And I did have to mute the application as well. I think the sound effects would have been enough.

Overall, Great work!

@sharkwithlasers the block turning to side is intentional because it's funny and thank for your comment

Very innovative! For how simple it appears to be, you made me actually think about how to solve each puzzle. Hopefully you explore the design more, because I haven't played a game quite like it. Audio aside, it's a great entry!

@afroant Unity Project of this game is a little bit broken and it will be difficult to work with the game.

I didn't understand what 'warp' meant at first so I was very confused in the first level.

I'm not sure why the character can fall over and end up sideways - is that intended?

WASD was a little bit awkward since you didn't need the mouse - I would've preferred arrow keys personally.

The 2-measure 1-instrument music loop gets grating very quickly, to be honest.
