The Loopyrinth by IvanTigan

[raw]
made by IvanTigan for Ludum Dare 47 (JAM)

The Loopyrinth.

Use the loops to get to the end of each level.

  • W, S - switch between available loops
  • Space - teleport to the next cell in the currently selected loop
  • Click loop checkbox - visualize the loop on the grid

Type into text field - highlight number across all loops; typing "4,6,2" will highlight the numbers 4, 6 and 2

Hold space to teleport continuously. The shoe makes your teleportation go faster.

Hmm, I like the graphics and everything but the game is not for stupid people like me XD

Interesting idea. At some point, I started play only looking at the number, but not the visual. I like the voice effects and music.
Would be more interesting if have a exact amount of teleportation allowance in every level. Would be also interesting to play without strings on the left, but just the visual (might be impossible :D )

That's new. Nice puzzle with a cool mechanic. At some point, the text field started to receive all the keys I pressed. So I finished the game without that hints, with good old brute force.
Nice game!

Oof, if the graphics were just a bit more consise, or I don't know even for what reason I was uncanny valley'ed away, this was to be my first all-5 rating, I liked the game and the concept so much, great job! :)

Simple yet complicated

Great stuff! Thats a truly chaotic puzzle game, having to search for the right cells in a path was frustrating and fun. Just when I said "I'm getting tired of this teleport animation", the powerup appeared! Overall fantastic. The character looks weird tho.

The aim of the game is not very clear. Are we trying to go in green cell? or something else? Enything else works great. Loved the eyes following the cursor. Your build .zip file has 2 executables at same size(90 mb). I think if you reduce the download size you can get more ratings. I love to see games developed in Godot Engine. Great game...

Dammit Dijkstra! I am bad at computing the shortest path in the head. It's a cool training game to teach children finding a shortest path in a (directed) graph.

Really interesting puzzle game. I couldn't work out how to get any value from the visuals to the right other than to grab the boot when it showed up and to make the little guy go cross-eyed :) Thanks for the game!

A lot to keep in your head with this one! I really liked trying to figure the loops out with the numbers.

My brain hurts D:
It took me a while to figure out, but when you understand what everything mean, it's kind of fun. The concept is clever but I think you should have conveyed the informations to the players in a more clear way. Like with an in-game tutorial? Nonetheless it's a interesting game with lots of potential, good job!

Thanks for all the feedback. <3
Fun fact: The character touches his belly button for a frame at the beginning of teleportation. You can notice it if you pay close attention. Maybe this is the source of his powers?
