What initially frustrated me about this entry is that the movement is painfully slow and the boundaries are very unintuitive. I spent the first few attempts trying to get the battery in the lower area, but I felt like I kept getting stuck just before the lower passageway at the start. It just seems very picky about what position you have to be in sometimes and what areas are solid versus what you can walk on. I had to take extra time to figure out exactly where I could move around. It also wouldn't hurt to have arrow keys as controls, too.
I appreciate the checklist and timer, and overall feel like the game worked best in concept, but the discovery of where I could move to, along with the sluggish movement, slightly detracted from that. Good job.
I would love to see more content for this in the future! Very nice game! Well done!
