you've managed to create such a fucked up and unique mechanic that having to learn it feels exactly like the times i've tried developing a motor skill i didn't have or understanding a textbook on an advanced branch of science i wasn't familiar enough with. it's rewiring my entire brain, i'm having to fight every bit of conditioning i've accumulated through my whole life. all of this is a *compliment*, i love stuff like this. this is one of the most fucked up games i've played in my entire life. you're a madman hempuli, please keep making whatever comes to your mind
thank you for this wonderful piece of mind-breaking insanity. that was amazing
i want you to know that my brain physically feels tingly. and also hurts. very rare combination of sensations that i get only when stretching its limits like this
So you're supposed to push the boxes... diagonally? But when I try the character never moves where I want and the boxes end up in the wrong place. Forget it.
I understand your frustration; the grid works in a way you wouldn't expect. Part of the fun is figuring out the rules through experimentation, but if you're struggling, here's what I've found, in rot13.

I love the little warmup puzzle that starts out every game, like, here, have yet another version of the same Sokoban puzzle that gets progressively more tricky than the previous one while having nothing to do with the rest of the actual game

Out of curiosity, is there some level number indicator somewhere or do you have to just count the levels starting from the first one?

This one had a fun twist! Was a key-bind ever considered for the later levels swap mechanic?![]()
I had that for making the levels but didn't consider it for the levels themselves.
Deltamount Tomorrow. Thank you for the curse.
Thanks. I hate this

It is infinitely impressive how often you create such good puzzles!
Update: upon touching the triangle, I have been filled with immediate fear
