1.5-hour minimalist puzzler with inconvenient controls. like the description says, it's 2d puzzles in 3d space, and as usual, the 3rd dimension only makes things clunky and tedious. both mouse and keyboard are a must. the former to select things (left click), move the camera (hold rmb) and zoom (wheel), the latter to move the selected thing (arrows or wasd), but no keyboard in the menus, have to click everything there. non-rebindable hotkeys for said menu (esc), undo (z), reset (r), and camera (shift if you prefer it to holding a mouse button). level select isn't great. somewhat branching progression is always good but it's really zoomed out, no level numbers, no keyboard navigation. zoom doesn't work there but camera rotation does because it's all in 3d. and while there are arrows on the sides, they can't be clicked, there's only edge scrolling (well, edge rotation in this case), making things even worse. the save file has level names (still no numbers) but they're never shown in the game. 25 sokoban puzzles, with the added nuisance of having to rotate and move boxes to find and reach the exit. buttons can be held to move/undo more but undo doesn't work after a level reset. mov…

mind twisting, very unique, last puzzled stumped me, but honestly the game perfect length to display a simple but powerful game concept

a fun and relaxing puzzle game.

Fun and Simple!

10/10

If this was combined with Patrick's Parabox, puzzle makers and puzzle solvers will be aiming to stretch the meaning of "mind-bending" against the common individual's limits. Short puzzle game that's worth the little bits of the feeling of victory gained. Even when there's a lot of room for new level ideas to be made from this game's premise.
