I'm thinking of creating a console version of this game.
I would appreciate it if you could share your thoughts or leave a comment.

That was really clever and fun. It took me a while to get used to the controls, but I can't see how it could have been any better with the number of buttons. puzzles were great and graphics were really nice (doing colours changes for different modes was very effective).


The concept of recording and replaying is very original. A bit hard to adapt at the beginning but then fun to play. Also i like the graphical design!


This game gives me a sense of fun and joy. I like the graphics of this game


I'm obsessed with this. This concept is so expandable. You also taught it very clearly and made me feel like a huge genius. Absolutely wonderful work.


@JROMHacks A time in the 1:1X's took me quite a few tries, but I eventually got a 1:18, just a little bit faster than your time. (not that I was trying to beat your time specifically; I just wanted a sub-1:20 time.) Below is a GIF of the full run:


very fun game! i'd really look forward to even more puzzles using this concept


NEW TERRITORIES FOUND 🙃
*if you ever wonder how I got into these, then:


@JROMHacks Sorry it took me a couple of weeks to get back to you (busy with other things, you know how it goes), BUT, after about half an hour of failed attempts...
I can conclude that I'm NEVER speedrunning this game again.


Checked the game out for about an hour and managed to beat it in under a minute! (after getting exactly 1:00 twice before that lol)
EDIT: Oops looks like I missed some strats looking at the other posts from here, so you could definitely cut down on a few more seconds


Got a 1:10 on mobile. Currently relearning the controls on computer so I can record a gif, but props to you lot for figuring out that route.
Speedrunning aside, this is such a good game. I will say, most of the game feels like a tutorial with not much room for error - that's why people are asking for more levels - but the mechanics are so unique and well executed. The are is also incredible, the black and white style is done so well. Can't wait to see what you do next :)



I found a room by getting out of bounds and falling to my doom.


Thank you for playing the game!
We will take your comments into consideration.
We are delighted that you enjoyed the speedrun.
First, we are considering releasing the full version on Steam.
If you like, please consider adding it to your wishlist!
