Use of the limitation
There is a random modifier applied to each level of the game. Since a dice roll is random, I thought a randomly selected modifier would fit the limitation.

Fun concept and really nicely designed mechanics! The randomness of the level generation can still be felt, it's a bit of a long shot but one suggestion is seeing how games like Hades deal with random level generation.

Developer

Thank you! There are a lot of improvements that can be made to the level generator, but I may work on this after the jam as well :)

Submitted

It is pretty good. I don’t full understand on which ticks the laser is on and off. It would be good if I could mouse hover over a threat and know when it is active. this has potential. The puzzle generation can be tighter. Sometimes it is really easy. Other times it seems a bit unfair.

Developer

Thanks! I know there is a lot to improve with the puzzle generation, and I might work on this after the jam. A tooltip showing when a cannon/laser shoots is also a good idea.

I’ll make some changes to the Timing section in the description to make it clearer for now

Submitted

It is a very interesting concept and it might be hard to make it where it not too easy and not too hard. The game feel/juciness you created is pretty top notch.

Developer

Thanks! I was thinking of having some sort of checker that makes sure there are multiple ways to complete a level, and add more rules to obstacle generation.

Unfortunately I didn’t have enough time to properly play test this, so the game is kinda imbalanced. I did add more rules to make the levels slightly easier in Patch 2.

Fun concept, and I must say, I'm impressed by the water shader! If you actually made it, thats really cool. I dont see many issues with this game, god job

Developer

thank you very much! I didn’t make the water shader, as I did not have much time left. The water shader is originally made by leon, ported to Godot by pawn_games and finally ported to 3D by Pindra.

Good game.

thanks!

Good puzzle game. I would like to be able to see when the shots will be fired before sending the cube, so I don't have to blindly make my way and lose a life because of it. Still, good job.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I added a “Timing” section to the game description to show the timings of the cannon, player, and laser to better plan the path to build. I may add an in-game indicator as well in the future.

I'm not a fan of this type of game, but the work on it is impressive.

Developer

Thanks! I understand not everyone likes every game genre, but thanks for trying it out!

Very good game.

Super fun game! I really enjoyed the variety of levels and the random modifiers. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much!

I'm not a pro, but... something's off here. I just can't put my finger on it.

Thanks for playing! The levels shouldn’t be impossible, but some may be very difficult. The levels are procedurally generated, but I set a few rules to not have them be impossible.

Submitted

Interesting puzzle that makes you think. I like it!

Developer

Thank you for the feedback!

The concept is great ! I really had to put my brain to work to succeed! The variety of levels and the idea of adding a ‘modifier’ are wonderful touches that add a lot of replay value. Great job !

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!
