There's No Depth in Top View by sadvest
There's no depth in top view, so you must find the depth through other means — either by relying on shadows, or by sacrificing yourself. A 3D sokoban-like game.

Post-Jam Update - Now all 3D view is displayed after completing level(previously only the last level). - Added sound effects. - Added level progress display. - Fixed an issue where the player would die immediately when moving toward the box right after it landed. - Fixed an issue where the target point could be accessed directly from above.

The starting animation is very much needed bc it makes it all clear and is very cute, too.. (reminded me of these mario party minigames when you "jump in" in flies from 3 quarter view to top view).
A simple, effective game.
If could display 3D levels when clearing each level, I would better know what I just did.
@oddballdave You can now have the full view after beating each level.
@uzpykes @3deimos I did try to let you return to your previous position when you hit the wall, but the code is kind of messy, so this feature was harder to implement than I expected. So I decided to leave it as it is.
