Cool game, nice music and looks great. I feel like only 2 problems - 1) it gets too easy when you figure out you can move block when the dude is sitting on it. 2) reverse theme does not really work if you help the main character, thats just how typically games work. But overall pretty cool and with some improvement can be a lot of fun.
Thanks for your feedback. I understand what you mean about the crates. It fits into the theme because you control elements of the level rather than the character!
Wow. The song was epic! The rain really immersed me I did have trouble with it but after a small bit I was like "Wow, that's how you do it!" At the beginning I felt this game would be slow but after just 30 seconds of playing it I found out it was quite enjoyable! I haven't found a level mover type game like this one! GG! This one was great!
If you have time could you come rate our game?
Thank you so much! Shrudders did the music and it was his idea to add the rain to the soundtrack! I’m glad to hear you like the game!
Great experience ! Congrats for building many levels despite so little time !
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed playing it! We made the entire game and then focused on loads of levels towards the end!
Incredible! The idea is great (I was really surprised), the art and sounds match with all the idea and the gameplay is amazing ^^. The only thing is that I took a while to see that is the description there was a "tutorial", so maybe you could add it in the game, but your work is amazing
And if you could rate my game too I would thank you a lot ^^

I’m happy to hear you liked the game! You’re right, there isn’t really a tutorial level but I think if we had more time we would’ve added one. Thank you!
Very cool! I enjoyed it a lot and it was a fun puzzle experience. But I do have one suggestion: maybe make the next level start right away when the little guy stands on the green square, because I had to restart levels multiple times because I didn't click the green square when the little guy was on it and he fell off. Either that or make it so that the next level starts regardless of where you click on the screen. This might just be me being bad at not misclicking, though.
I’m glad you enjoyed the game. I did write in the description that you have to click the green box to continue. I think clicking anywhere to move onto the next level is a great idea so thank you for that!
Great idea
this is a cool take for to the theme! however its feels a little hard on the first level. could do some tutorials levels before going for the starting on first one!
Yes, that’s a good idea! I think if we had more time we would’ve added some tutorial levels but I’m glad you like the idea! Thanks
Really COOL puzzle mechanic, crazy what you achieved 48 hours!!!
Thank you! I’m glad to hear you think it’s a cool puzzle mechanic!
Glad people are liking it so far, comment and review so we can review your game!
The amount of content here is insane! Really really fun. I felt like I was cheating by just making him ride the box haha but it was really really fun. I don't know that it's SUPER in line with the role's reversed, but it definitely makes sense. I thought this was a fantastic entry. Great job!
Thank you! I’m glad you thought it was a great entry. We found the theme quite hard this year but we gave it a go!
A fun puzzle experience! I had a bit of trouble figuring out the controls at first but once I did, I saw so much potential! I hope you continue to work on this in hte future, the mechanics are so unique and refreshing. Good luck!
Thank you so much! We’re glad you enjoyed playing the game and liked the mechanics! Would it help if I made the controls clearer in the game description?
I think the description does a great job of explaining the rules. I just didn't check before I played, so that was really on me. Great game once again!
