Outpacked

Got the game after watching a video about it, then played the demo myself, loved it, bought it, almost finished it and loving every minute of it. You will not regret getting this puzzle game, it is simple but still challenging and it gets progressively more difficult but not so annoying that it makes you give up. Just take breaks and take it slow, the game is relatively short (not counting fan-made lvls) so take your time and have fun :)

[h1] PROS: [/h1] [list] [*] Cute, wholesome story that kept me smiling throughout the game. [*] Relaxing gameplay that lets you take your time, while still offering a satisfying challenge when solving puzzles. [*] The puzzles are well designed, and if you ever get stuck, there's a helpful hint system that gives you a nudge without completely spoiling the solution. [*] Includes a level editor, allowing players to create and publish their own custom levels on Steam, which adds a lot of replay value. [*] Calm, relaxing soundtrack that perfectly matches the cozy atmosphere. [*] Absolutely loved the pixel art style. It's charming and fits the game's vibe really well. [*] The developer states that no AI generated assets were used, which is a huge plus for me. [/list] [h1] CONS: [/h1] [list] [*] Fullscreen mode doesn't feel very well optimized and can be awkward to play. [*] The game's resolution is quite low. On a larger monitor, it can be difficult to make out certain details, especially with the pixel art style. Oddly enough, the game looks much sharper in the trailer than it does while playing. [*] The same issue affects the jigsaw puzzles, whe…

The game was fun, but short. The music is whimsical and upbeat, and the graphics are cute. There's even a charming little story to go with the puzzles - and it IS more puzzle-y than pure inventory management, as there are conditions for which things can be placed where. My only complaints are the length of the game, and to a lesser extent, the fact that the font doesn't allow for capital letters or questionmarks, which makes certain dialogues look a bit goofy. Certainly worth checking out for anyone who likes light-hearted puzzle games, perhaps more for someone who plays casually, to make the game last longer. Although there are community-made workshop levels one can download and play as well, or making your own and uploading them. 🎵/10

Good

A clever and charming puzzle game. It's a pretty simple premise, but the puzzles still hit a nice difficulty. Most of the puzzles took a good bit of time, and I only got really stumped twice. I've messed around with the level editor a bit and am excited to use that. My only problem with the game is that it doesn't have a next level button, after each level it brings you to the level select menu. Because they are all on the same screen it isn't a big issue, but it would have been nice to just jump straight to the next one. Overall I highly recommend.

A simple, yet cozy puzzle game. The puzzle elements eventually get complicated with overlapping placement requirements. I found the best puzzles to be the ones where not every item was needed. The jigsaw puzzles at the end of each week worked really well to break the puzzles up. And the little bit of story was nice to go along with everything. The end was also very sweet~! Overall, I think it was good! There were certainly levels that left me scratching my head. And community levels is a nice addition as well~
