Hey this was surprisingly fun and challenging! Honestly at first I could not figure out the controls, and unfortunately that meant it took forever for me to figure out how to select the "controls" option to view them. lol! After I got started and figured it out, I was like, "ok hold, up, I'm gonna solve this!" Great mechanics! Nice animations!
Edit: I just noticed the controls listed in this page. I just scrolled past and launched the game. :)

I couldn't find out how to play, but the game looks great. Some form of tutorial on the main menu would be great!

Such a small game and yet such an interesting experience! Took me a while to figure out the controls but after that it was very fun! ^^

Very cool puzzler. I enjoyed my time with this. The animations could be a lot faster though in my opinion. I felt there was too much waiting and watching the animation pan out.

Surprisingly challenging, but really fun puzzle game. I've bookmarked this page just to come back and beat the damn thing later. With the simple controls and great retro graphics, this could be an amazing mobile game.

Good puzzle game! I also had some problems figuring out the controls, an easy fix would be to add them to the description.

@nonon there's already an image on the description (screen of the game) with the controls on it, but maybe there is an issue and you can't see it? That would explain a lot for the comments :)
Anyway, thank you for your feedback, and I'm gonna write them on the description just in case the image is not displaying then :)
edit: I also added them on the Itch.io page description

Challenging and fun, the progression was really good and the overall timing is great. Graphics and animations are readable and fun, I would love to play more levels of it !

Puzzles were great. The graphics and sound really got you into the mood, and the difficulty felt good as well.

It would have been helpful to have an indication of which way the enemies would go when walking straight into a wall, but you could find that out by running it a few times.

Great job!

Fun puzzle game! The difficulty ramped a little fast from level 4 to level 5. But i pushed through and finished all nine levels. I like how there are these little invisible logic things you must figure out while playing, like how they are always moving clockwise. I feel the input should be mouse or touch instead of keyboard, but on the other hand it was an extra fun puzzle to figure out the controls. Must check out that Raccoon fantasy console sometime. Keep it up!

Pfiou, I finished it, but that was pretty hard :scream_cat:

I thought you used Pico-8 but no, you must be one of the only ones to use their own engine, and it's impressive!

Good job for this entry :thumbsup:

I really enjoyed the challenge, and congrats on Raccoon, that's nice :smiley:
I'm trying to complain about something, but that's just great. If I want to nitpick, maybe you could have used different musics for different levels, I guess.

Cute puzzle game! I found it rather difficult to predict the character turns. I would recommend changing the controls. For example, drag and drop with the mouse or always placing the arrows from left to right.
