Simple, beautiful, touching. Puzzles are of good difficulty to put together. I loved the repetitive emotional ambient background music., and the story that was revealed through the pictures. Recommended!
very chill love that you are instantly immersed <3
It's a charming if narratively obtuse puzzle game. Worth the 8 hours or so it took
i love the concept but i hate the execution. I thought it would have a varitey of puzzles instead of just "fix the picture" over and over again. I dont mind those kind of puzzles but you need to know what the picture is supposed to look like to solve it. They dont give that to you. Its a puzzle game with a key to solve it, The art isnt even that good. Its very frustrating to say the least. I bet the game does have a good story but it annoyed me too much to see it.
Hello and thank you for releasing your game on Steam for us to try! "Before the battery's over" is a Puzzle slider game with a hidden story that emerges as the player completes each of the 21 puzzles. The levels vary in difficulty and towards the end you may find yourself having to repeat some of them to beat the timer. The game offers an interesting challenge which is inclusive of all ages. You can expect a good few hours of game play depending on your personal skill level and the games ambient music makes for a wonderful experience both visually and audibly. I recommend this game to anyone looking to relax and unwind into this futuristic micro-world. I did experience what I felt was a bug that actually turned out to be an intended mechanic when my timer ran out during the puzzle. The game does not give any feedback about which point in time you are returned to when failing a level, it sends you back to a previous puzzle without any indication how far behind you might be. It was slightly confusing and made me think that resetting the game to speed clear the early levels might help beat the game within the 100% battery given at the start, when in fact you can just keep playing …
Tile swap puzzles without model, so you need to figure out the picture along the way. Not so easy to finish on time!
