Bugfixes
- Fixed fill and move removing the spawn tile in the editor, causing the level to be unplayable
- Fixed the sound being extremely loud the first time you open the game
Additional notes, P.S, etc.
The DEBUG window is an intended feature.
If you wanna leave a level or something else, press ESC.
Try pressing the title in the menu.
The editor is the most fun part of the game. Even if you don't want to play through the whole game, please try out the editor! :)

I like the look of the game a lot, the audio is nice too (the BGM is a bit grating, I know it's hard with a time limit but try to squeeze ina bit more variety to it if you can) but overall this is really great, good work.
- Graphics are nice
- Soundeffects
- the variety of the puzzle elements
- instructional gameplay
- feels polished
What i didnt like
- Sound was very loud when starting the game, after adjusting it went to normal volumes as if the values are diffrent from starting up and the standard settings
- did not really see the connection to the while-loop, just a limitation in steps i can walk. The idea is good tho, its just that if there wasnt the text with the while statet above, the game would still play the same because the gameplay itself does not really get affected by it
An example of how i would improove the issue I stated:
have the programm text given (a while loop with the elements as code version) and you can drag the elements from the code into the game (like your level editor and a given level layout just with a limitation so to speak)
(played html version)
The sprites are very recognizable and the 8-bit music lends itself well to the theme of the game.
The last level was quite the brain teaser. I used the i=10 tiles as "checkpoints" to think through the next steps. Having them be actual checkpoints instead of getting reset to the very beginning of the level would be nice (although this does conflict with the blue continue tiles).
Being able to make your own levels is a very nice idea. I feel like an astonishing amount of effort went into making this game.
And music is very suitable,it didn't let me feel annoyed but quite relax,nice!
The art is really nice, and the puzzle mechanics were easy to understand.
I did at some point mute the audio, but the music was alright.
I really enjoyed this one, good job!
