Nice game!

Very fun, challanging puzzles. The style fits the game perfectly. But the connection to the theme was hard to see.

Fantastic puzzles, I managed to solve them all. loved the graphics.
It felt very polished in parts, loved for example how the yellow dot slowed down when turning a lock, that's somehow very satisifying to me :smile:

@snotax yeah, originally I was planning to do more with the looping levels so they would be "stuck in a loop" but I ended up doing a puzzle game instead so it's not very prominent. :sweat_smile:

@linus-lindberg thanks, I originally left those slow when increasing the speed to show off the animations better, but you're right, it gives them a nice weight too!

Really nice use of the theme. The puzzles were fun. Puzzle 6 has a glitch where you can move through a wall, fyi. Great job.

This game is so spectactular. Definitely a top tier jam game.

@sanojian Ah thanks, good catch on that bug, and I still have time to fix it! xD

this is really good!

great job on making the puzzle work and keeping it interesting!

Short but good and complete, the ideal jam game. Great work.

Loved that game, really nice idea for the theme, puzzles where nice as well, not too simple and not too hard! The graphics are really a fit for the game. Awesome job in such a short time!

Really nice little game, puzzles difficulty is just enough to not frustrate, good work! Only needs some polish on graphics side, maybe try using some premade color palletes from web?

Nice puzzle game! Difficulty was just right.
The curving world effect when walking around was also really well done.
Good game!

I did a full loop before I realized I could X the jawa or the pyramid. XD

@animaster I made it with PICO-8 which has an intentionally limited palette.

@ruruie oh no :scream:
was planning to add a feature where the nomad suggests you not go off to the right if you start walking that way, but I didn't get time for that.

Nice creative puzzle, i liked it.

This is quite a paw-lished game, good work !

Pretty unique puzzle, and nice visual effects with the rotating clock!

That full-screen rotating clock effect in PICO is wild! You should definitely get this up on the bulletin board. Great game, far too smart for me :D

This is nice 12 level puzzle!
and nice background graphics!!
good use PICO-8!!

I enjoyed the puzzles a lot. It was also a very interesting use of the theme, and the whole game kept me wanting to play. Missed audio, though, even if just just bleeps and bloops. Nice entry overall.

Smart puzzles, and I really like the aesthetic in the puzzles themselves; it communicates the mechanics very clearly! Very impressive use of the Pico's abilities.

Minor bug that if you start again after escaping it doesn't reset properly, but obviously most players will never encounter that so it's not a big deal for the competition.

The puzzle aspect of this game was awesome! I really enjoyed playing it, good work!
