So great. If you develop this into a larger game, one suggestion would be to have 3 optional “challenge stars” you can earn for each level.
Star 1: use the lowest number of runes possible for that level
Star 2: “travel” the minimum distance possible for that level
Star 3: bonus challenge (e.g. “don’t use the N rune in this level”)
(Perhaps these are only unlocked after earning all the runes in the game, or greyed out until you have the necessary runes to get the optimal number for a given star)
These would require different solutions, adding replayability for each level.
Thanks a ton for your support and enthusiasm! I haven't been able to dedicate a lot of time to this game yet, but I see and appreciate the love that it has been getting <3 I intend to work on it in the near future and will definitely drop devlogs here if there are any updates!
The controls to mov around the world feel a little jank and I have no idea why, but I love this mechanic so much that I don’t think I actually care about any flaws this may have. If there’s any game jam game I want to see a full version of, it’s this.
Moving a big cat block is a little weird, but it’s a game jam game so, probably something about time constraints.
Reminded me of Taiji and The Witness, which are two of my favorite puzzle games!
also a very fun game, i would play the real thing if i could pay and download it. i love puzzle games and this is on my top 10 favorite puzzle games!!!
Thank you for playing and for your high praise! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 😊 Just a heads up, I've hidden your puzzle spoilers to preserve the surprise for other players!
Very cool game! I really the idea behind this, my favorite part was whenever I managed to "code" the full answer to the puzzle first try. Love the music and the visuals as well. Super well done
It was very fun! Just a suggestion but i think when the full game comes out there should be a level/world creator. Also, when do you plan on releasing the full game?
This is great, and I can't wait for the full game! My only complaint about the demo is the ending. It should've been a puzzle where you end up spelling "arcana" instead of it just being at the door. That would've been a bit cooler in my opinion.

Amazing! I love the concept of figuring out the rules myself, the puzzles and the aesthetic. 🥰
This game gave me an idea of solving a puzzle by typing a word and making a specific one line "drawing" like. Dunno what I'll do with this idea. 😅
Anyway, thank you for making this game! 👍
Hi there! Can't believe it's been a year since the conception of this amazing puzzle gem.
Is there anything more planned? I'd love for someplace to follow news about this game or any other future projects!

how do I reset so I can play again?
Refresh the page! There should be a button to reset on the main menu :)
81 runes, 12 in last.
Nice game, got to 103 total runes used, i don't think i can optimize any further
cool game, work on android with bt-keyboard, ideas for posible simbols-
M - look up
B- go backwards
M - a-a-r-c-a (if N is a-a-c-a)
Nice game, I think I recognise some art from an asset pack
I spent a minute trying to solve the background lol

Ok, i forgot to say it was a spoiler 😅

Thank you! I am a fan of your games and devlogs so this means a lot to me! 🥰

I am still building my team, but don't worry I will make a post if I have any updates!
I got a barrel stuck in a door, and can't get passed.
Feel free to refresh the page, the barrels will reset and your progress is saved! Thanks for the catch, I'll fix it soon™️
Really nice concept. I would love seeing it extended.
This is a nice idea. I'd like to play a full version of this and see what other rules you have in store.

This is fantastic! I'd love to see you take it further. By the way, it works just fine in Chrome on Mac OS.
One possible refinement: a keystroke (perhaps up-arrow) to type the last attempt again.
Great game! would love to see a full release!
I managed to block one of the doors with a barrel
