thx for the game! this is a nice one.

humorous idea,sketching style. I love it

A well-thought-out puzzle game, I particularly like the concept of using the axis of rotation to pass obstacles, and the assets are very cute.

cute little puzzle game !
I would have liked the audio to be more polished, but the overall the concepts works well!
Good job!

Love this take on sokoban! Played through to the end and was sad to be out of levels. Well done!

This is great! Both the puzzles, aesthetics and audio - the overall style is really cute. I scratched my head a few times but managed to beat it :) Great job!

Cute visuals and interesting puzzles, great job on the submission!

I like a great good puzzle game and this definitely is one. The graphics are so cute and the audio compliments that. It all feels really polished and I had a smile on my face while playing it. Awesome!

Very cosy puzzle game!

I absolutely loved the graphics (including the wiggle animation when you beat a level). Simple-to-understand puzzle game with an interesting take on the theme. The audio helped set the cosy vibes. Even though I'm terrible at these kind of puzzles (and ended up bruteforcing some by just trying different things over and over) I had a great time playing this game, will recommend it to my team!

Lovely game !! The idea is great, I love the hand-drawn feeling of the animations/transitions and I was almost stuck a few time (and then I used my brain). Good work !!

Great idea. It is incredibly tricky getting them all around some of those corners. I like the sketchy art, and the audio is good. The music was okay for it too.

Very funny, love the work behind the game! It demands quite a reflexion some times but it's very good, love the drawing and the animations. These little hedgehog are too cute!

Very interesting game, and many details are well done. I cannot stop playing, and at last finish it, which takes some time.

Really love the innovative concept in the game. Gameplay is fun though somehow mechanics is a bit few. Some levels need patience. Really love the art of the game, hope sometime I can have such an art skill or have a friend with an art skill lie this in the future. BTW, R is a bit too close to E, I mispressed R for several times, it's kind of annoying :(

Lovely small game, really like the art style!

Made it to the end. Absolutely loved it. Best game of the jam for me. Great puzzle design, audio and graphics.

Cute art, enjoyed the puzzles, some of them were very tricky to get the turns right. Congrats on completing!

Really fun, tricky puzzles, and good controls. My only real complaint is that the reset button is right next to the rotate button. I kept accidentally resetting my progress by hitting the wrong one. Perhaps a timer for "hold to restart" or move the key to prevent accidental reset.

i’ve been figuring out this puzzles more than expected but the time solving them was worth it! cozy atmosphere and cute art-style brought charm into this game

Delightfully cute art style coupled with a nice game mechanic. Enjoyed it.

Cute and simple yet polished game. Love it.

Great work!

Great game, played it to the end. The puzzles were fun and the mechanics were well explored. I also loved the feedback for invalid moves, showing how far the moves got before failing helped a lot as the shapes became more complex.

Great puzzles. I played way longer then i had thought.

Cute game!Good job!

Very original idea and great level design. Also, graphics and audio works excellent. The result is very close, congrats!

cute

Awesome game! I love the art style and the mechanic is simple but work greats.
I got stuck at some point because my brain was melting...
Awayway, geat job!

Nice little puzzle game. I love the sound of finishing a level haha

Thats a realy good product. The single thing I didn't like is the sound was the sound of writing on paper between the levels; it gave me goosebumps.

Nice puzzles! I like the simple and cute art. It seems that lots of creators interpret the theme as a classic box puzzle framework plus some mechanism compress the space to make players think about it when they try to figure out the right routue.I think this framework can be further expanded adding some interaction mechanism focusing on the spin movement and the function of the diffierent hedgehogs.

Great puzzles! Really had to think about some of them, and couldn't always brute force the solution by trying. Lovely art style, music and sounds.

I made it to the end but my brain is aboute to explode
Really nice and cute game

Very cute graphics, nice difficulty curve too, though I think the third to last level is the one that stumped me the most. Great job!

Probably the cleanest game in the jam I have played so far, full score for me. Mechanics were well defined and well exploited. The fact that the black Prickle is the point of rotation is smart and well used.
The graphics are quite nice and I love the transitions between level/restart. Sound design is clean and on point.

My only grip is that I would have liked the level number to be displayed (maybe also the total number of levels in order to know how much time I have to allocate to finish?).

Slap a level selection to this bad boy, add a few levels and you could even release it for a few bucks in my opinion.

Congrats on your jam!

Lovely game, really fun, cute graphics. I love the way the graphics of the game just blend into the webpage. Well done!

What a lovely game! Good puzzles with a nice progression. Well done!

nice job

The prickles are my worst enemy. Why won't they just go around the corners. (in a very loving tone)

It's fantastic! A lot of really well-considered puzzling. Required me to think, you really feel limited by the space. The music started to grate after a while, but I think that's just a time constraint, you can't really do much more than have a short loop. Certainly in my top 5 favourites so far this jam.

Really nice art style and good puzzles. The rotation mechanic feels a bit unfair at times as it blocks rotations you think you should be able to make, but that's just something you can get used to.

I like the simple aesthetic and sound. (Love that it fits the season, too :D) The mechanic is simple but you made the most of it with the creative puzzle designs! Lovely game :)

I love the graphical style, the music and the happy cheers of the hedgehogs as they get to the finish ^^
The levels vere challenging enough to make me stop for a bit, but not too hard to make it frustrating.
I cant think of anything I would add, that is missing, or that is extra. Its perfect in the exact sence of the word as it is ^^

The end jingle with the happy hedgehogs made me smile everytime. The puzzles are great, it's well in theme and it looks and sound amazing. Fantastic game!

Oh my god, I laughed when they danced for the first time! It was very sweet. I really like this game. Really difficult puzzles, but I manage to solve them! And the gameplay fits the theme very well. Good job!

Such a cute game! The art style is simple yet so adorable, and I am obsessed with the way they celebrate when you complete a puzzle. The concept seemed easy at first, but the way the puzzles picked up on the difficult and are still balanced at the same time is very well done! The music is also very entertaining and truly completes the atmosphere. Amazing job!!

Very fun puzzle game such like I enjoy, well done :smiley: !

Great game, love the sound effect and the level design is well done! Congratulations!

This game made me a lot more frustrated than I'd like to admit. The artstyle is really cute though, and I love the animation that plays when you restart a level (I did see it quite a lot).

Simple puzzle game, efficient, cute, good level design
One of the best i've tried so far. Thanks for this !

Made with Godot! The characters are adorable and the puzzles are just the right level of fun. Like a good game it starts you off easy and increases the challenge as you progress. The game has a distinct style and it suits the game, same with the sound effects! The cheering is cute. My only complaint is I would have preferred a different UX when you attempt to rotate, but the rotation is not allowed. Perhaps a "negative" sound effect followed by characters shaking, or a visible X, or something to that effect. The way the game plays now, it tricks you for a short moment to think the rotation may happen, but you do get used to it. Very good work!

got stuck on one of the puzzle for such a long time, but really wanted to play the rest so I got to the point where I took a piece of paper and tried all the possibilities 😅 the game is very easy to understand yet it can be really challenging, great work! I also loved the "yeepeeee!" sound and I'm glad I learned what a prickle is

Cute little puzzle game, enjoyed the little dance of success when we got through the doors together


I love this kind of puzzle games. And this one is a very clever enhancement of Sokoban. Perfect for the theme (we really feel congested). The art in the rough pencil style is very cute. And I 'm impressed with the amount of levels you could managed. The progression bar is well polished. Congratulation, Sunbird Studio :-)

I love the soundtrack and the aesthetics! Overall a cool idea however I encountered a bug where if I press r twice the game freezes to a white screen

My husband and I played this together and we had so much fun! I could definitely see this being sold for real money. VERY good entry

Love all the arts, the style, the level design and it fit well with the theme good job

This could honestly be a great full game. Love the sketchy artstyle and simplistic presentation, yet the puzzles get quite complicated so it requires some thinking. Overall a great entry 😃👍

Cute and simple lil game! Congrats!

Amazing game!

Damn, mad props to the sound design and art direction. Less is more all the way! Amazing idea AND implementation

Was a really polish and great game ! Love when teams have time to develop really cool level design ideas and you did. Sounds and graphics was really nice too, could be a really great mobile game ! Congrats !

Cute, simple and funny, good job!

Well done! Take a candy! :candy:

Super well done, i like how when u retry its like scribbling out the sketch, cool way to put the mobile controls, cool art style

Nice solid entry. Polished and sometimes complex. Thanks!

My fav so far :)

So cute! And a great puzzler. Had to think for a bit on the later levels. Made it to the end tho! Great art, sound, and level design. Easy to understand and fun to play. No complaints, only praise, really! I guess the only thing is that I've seen similar things before but games like this are always enjoyable. C:

Great job! The last two levels really got me. And music was great.

Great job! The last two levels really got me. And music was great.

Very good entry with cute hand-drawing graphics, adorable audio. unique gameplay and polished like an artisan's gem. You guys nailed every single aspect of it, super well done!

I played this game on my phone. Very cool that it had mobile support. Very well put together game that fits the theme.

It is a masterpiece, of the games I've tried, this is the best and most interesting.

it was a great puzzle game with a great level design, with more levels and a level selector and a little bit more of poilishing it can be a game i could spend money for .

Finished the game with great pleasure. Very ellegant puzzle design and consistent artstyle. 10/10 overall - simple, but polished game.

This is so cute! Loved the artstyle and the mechanics, very polished game!

Interesting level design, the music is really cute and this new artstyle looks great! I think the game could use more QoL features like an undo button or more explanation on why a rotation fails. Other than that the game felt polished and I had a lot of fun, well done!

Fun game, good puzzles, cute artstyle, good audio... What can I say? 5/5

love the audio sounds, silly music, animations, easy and simple to understand gameplay. What is there not to like?

Nice amount of levels. Puzzles get's harder in nice pace. Oh! and the position of the black prickle matters.

Great game. Can't give any criticism, it is complete game with great style.

Cute and fun! Had me feeling like I was back at those shapes and holes toys for toddlers. And failing! p:
Did manage to beat all levels, the win music and sounds are just soooo rewarding. Good good good! <3

I love the idea of the hoglings. The sound when you finish a level is really sweet. Very cute game :D

Delightful little puzzle game. Changing the pivot point based on how you arrange the hedgehogs is a really clever mechanic. Sound design is very cute and enjoyable.

Me and the bros after a long day of twisting and scooting:
🎵🎵🎵🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🎵🎵🎵🎵

aww such a cute game! I loved how it was "pencil" drawn and the little noises they made. Great job!! ☺

the mechanics are very cute and the art & sfx lovely too.

This feels insanely polished and smart, the concept is so simple yet allows for a nice depth to the puzzles!

Awesome idea and wonderfully implemented both graphically & game-play wise. Everything felt as one big unit, audio, graphics- game-play which is rare to see in jam games. Very lovely work on it!

Geezus THIS IS SUPER GOOD! I needed 20 seconds to Notice how GOOD this is!

Polished polished POLISHED! to the extremes! The initial puzzle mechanics, the win animation and sound, the *simplicity* of it all... *THIS* is what a good game is. No... this is what a **GREAT** game is! AMAZING job!

Took me way too loooong. Cute graphics and nice puzzles

Perhaps my favourite so far! Loved the cute graphics, bouncy background music, and cute sounds. It was giving me jackbox vibes. The puzzles were balanced. The first few were easy, and the first one I got stuck on... I ended u figuring it out and being stoked. Very polished and cohesive. Love it.

Lovely puzzle game! Very polished :D

An impressive game with cute hedgehogs, comparing with other sokoban-like games!

Great game with interesting puzzles! Loved your sound design

Help Stephog I'm stuck! no but joking aside, It is really well done and a polished game. Amazing work!

What a fun game! It feels so polished, that I can see my own reflection in it :grin: The music fits perfectly to the graphical style and the puzzles are chellanging to make you forget time :D

I think this game is so cute!

Nice entry!

Some levels really made me take time to think! That's a very good point for a puzzle game

very cute game and nice art,,I like this game design

Awesome game, love the simplicity, nice graphics. Also great music, especially the victory tune when arriving at home, very cute.

Great game. Reminds me a lot of baba is you. Really excellent job with the puzzles too.

So cute hedgehogs!

Nice and cute game! Although you mentioned you aren't really artists, I love the sketchy style and you actually inspired me to try out similar style visuals myself (maybe next jam, who knows?). And puzzle genre is probably one of my favorite existing game genres. Good job! :thumbsup:

I loved this game! So much creative and well made!

adorable premise & well executed, i had a lot of fun!

Super cute audio and sound effects. The minimal art style worked pretty well! The puzzles had a good difficulty ramp, but it felt difficult to plan ahead because I wasn't really sure if a rotation would be allowed.

Interesting puzzle game! Hedgehogs are so cute, and the audio design is amazing too!

Just a solid jam game - both design and aesthetic-wise.

The level design is perfect for a jam game. Levels constantly challenge the player to think about the mechanic in new ways.

Very solid entry!

Super cool voice acting and graphics! I love the constraint movement! Very nice ramp up of the puzzles!

awesome puzzles and very cute!

Nice puzzles I had a great time!

The graphics and sounds are really cool, everything to do with the theme. I took the opportunity to play with my 5 year old daughter, we had fun together. I didn't finish but we got far

Reminded me of one of my favorite puzzle games, Stevens Sausage Roll :)

Good game!

Smells like a jam winner! Simple, sweet, clever, funny, gorgeous, fun. Good stuff.

It is simple but very well done. It reminds me of the game Gesundheit which looked like drawn on paper and had strange cute sound fx. It's nice sometimes just to meditate in a puzzle like this. Also good choice of setting, prickles look like porcupines and that is a plus :D

This game made me smile. It was fun, cute, challenging and engaging

Very cool, I got stumped by this last level, it felt like sometimes there was space to rotate based on a pivot position of the main hog, but then it wouldn't. Without giving too much away or making it too easy, maybe some more visual feedback on attempted turns / clashing blocks etc would help.

Great soundtrack and sound fx btw - it added a lot of character. :smiley:


Great puzzle and cute drawings. Soundtrack and SFX were on point (wish I had time to make some music for my puzzle game also) really makes a difference.

Very cute concept:) I love the style overall and the idea:D

The puzzle design is clever and challenging. The game is simple enough to understand quickly and get to playing. Art and sound are top notch too.

Heyyyy! Love it. Reminiscent of Snakebird, Steven's Sausage Roll, and the rest of the proud Sokoban lineage. Also reminds me of the rotation headaches in Zachtronics games like Spacechem and Infinifactory. Great touch having the pivot point matter, and working the selection of the pivot into the puzzles. Fun music, nice level designs.

It's a beautiful little package, so there's not much to criticize, but a couple things I would have loved to see:
- More visual representation of the rotation: which tiles am I passing through as I rotate? Which turns are available to me right now? (I could just try them, sure, but it'd be even nicer just to know.)
- Would it be better if the 'hogs were circular? I feel like I could visualize the rotation a little better that way.
- A little animation of the 'hogs all scurrying through the door one by one!
- More, harder levels, please!

Though on that last note, having made a few level-based LD games myself, I can definitely appreciate what's already here. Congrats, team! :)

Great game. The puzzles about assembly and rotation are very creative and challenging. I enjoyed the puzzles.

I love the the art style and the sound design feels incredibly fitting. Puzzles felt just right. Enough to get me scratching my head, but not to the point my eyes would start glazing over. Great Job!

Good concept and simple (in good meaning) art style. Pretty good polished and feels like finished product.
Well done!

This is just great congrats!

Wow what a great core mechanic! It's super simple, and yet some of the later puzzles were actually quite brain bending O:

I can only imagine how far you could bring this if you had hedgehogs that had different effects, different shapes even? as well as a few more obstacle types or collectables

Overall just a very pleasantly simple concept with a lot of potential for expansion. And as I said on your blog post, you just knocked it out of the park on the art style. Looking at your other games, it seems you're finding your style game after game by going more minimal - it's working out for you, keep that up.

This would be a lovely little mobile puzzle game with some more levels and a few more mechanics. I have basically no criticisms.

Excellent work :)

Really great fun, and heady too! Well done!

Simple but pleasant graphics, soothing music, interesting puzzle mechanics. What can I say? A great idea and an amazing implementation :)

Very cute graphics and according music. During the first levels, I wasn't understanding where you can go with this concept, but in fact the puzzle aspect is brilliant and very challenging 👍
PS: displaying the number of the current level could help to comment a level, or requesting help 😉

I love it! Excelent work, the audio, humour and challenge is on point!

A really cool puzzle that plays with the theme nicely. The graphics are simple but quite pleasant, and the sounds are good as well. The game feels complete and well-done, the only thing is that the last level seemed easier than some in the middle.

Well done, this is a clever concept that works well with the theme and I was surprised how interesting/complex the levels got. The music reminds me of Nitrome a bit :)

In a couple places it felt like I should be able to rotate but couldn't, maybe that's just me though.

Well done, always love to see more well-designed LD puzzle games!

 **I want more! Keep up the good work** 😊👍

That was really cute! I love the art so much!

It's been a while since I've seen a puzzle game that made my brain hurt.

I liked it, well done!

Simple idea, great execution :+1:
Good job!
