Class, everyone please find a seat.

As you know, this exam will cover everything you've learnt regarding platforming puzzles and local spacial looping.

You will only be allowed to use the following materials: - Unity - Krita - Audacity - Visual Studio

and will have 48 hours allotted to complete it.

(UPDATE: Fixed a bug with jumping rendering a few levels unplayable, and also added a screen at the end so you know it's done and didn't just crash or something.)

The game is super cool. Yet I stuck at the level when two frames overlaped together, and it seems like it's trying to reset you to the origin after you go into the void...This is a little bit confusing to me

The level design of this game is insane! The puzzles can be difficult, but they're all mind bendingly great!
The drawn aesthetics are also a great addition, so overall a very, very solid entry!

really interesting concept, and I really like the "math class doodles" visual style. I get stuck once you started getting pushable wrap regions, and had to move on to the next game to rate :P

Clever game. I really liked the paper graphics and the puzzles start out at reasonable difficulty. Well done!

A very good level design on this game, simple to understand and master yet can be extreamely complexe to win ! Good job with this entry !

I love the mechanics and originality of this game, it's brilliant! The graphics are great and the sound effects are good. I spent a lot of time playing, but I still feel too dumb to play this xD Great job!

The idea is really good, and I love the games visual style. For me the game got a bit too confusing, but I had fun trying it any way. The game do need some music, but that is okay for a compo game. Overall a good compo game.

I'm a sucker for puzzles which get you to think and this is one of them. The idea of using a torus style map in a flat plain was a brilliant idea. I was stumped at overlapping panels level, I'll return to this one to try and finish it. The "school book doodle" aesthetic was a brilliant choice. As many have said this game deserves alot more attention.

that's a great entry: it's a really creative take on the theme, the puzzles are hard but really satisfying to solve. Maybe "blocking" the sides of the maps when those just lead you to die would be nice as it can be a bit frustrating to have to restart all the level because you went a bit too far (it was not a big issue here but if you plan to develop it more and you begin to have really long levels, it can become one imo)

Overall, it is a fun puzzle game, it deserve more recognitions
