Super inventive concept, I found the controls a little tricky but I really like what you were going for, think this could be refined and expanded, which not a lot of LD games can!

The last level stumped me for a little while, challenging and fun, and the music was well suited too

Thats Amazing! The Mood of this game just gave me chills. It feels like a really good Mix of Snake and a Puzzle game.
Better controlls and more content and i would actually buy this on steam!

@meta-link Thank you very much for your feedback! The concept was to be a little mysterious for the player to find out!

To be honest the first two levels made me think this would be a great puzzle game, but sadly the last ones were pretty linear :/ The mechanic is great, and it fits the theme well, I'm disappointed you didn't bring more good levels to life ! But I know level design is hard. I like the fact the visuals are simple, it's great to understand what's going on and play ! The music is cool too and the game is very atmospheric!

Nice little puzzle game!
Realy like the "blue men" effect and it's use to solve the later levels!
I also realy liked the excellent minimalistic but to the point graphics.

Its like snake when your high.

I loved the ripple effect its a cool use.

I couldn't get past this level as the corner wouldn't rotate fully.

Never-mind, seems to be an issue with Firefox developer edition.

@nick-parry thanks for playing! The box that is heavier must be at the top left plate. Then it wil rotate fully :)

Neat puzzle! The grab felt a little awkward, but it didn't detract too much. The graphical style is simple and sets the mood pretty well. It would've been cool to see the concept expanded in different directions, like having doors that only block when powered, but the simplicity of what's here works fine.
