Deep within the Bomb's Lair, there is said to be held a highly regarded treasure!

Only problem is, it's filled with low-tempered bombs...

Can you conquer the lair, and get past the unstable bombs?

Good luck! 1.png

Really love the concept! I like the feeling where the bombs are useful for you to complete the level, but also dangerous! Loved having to think through where I was going to place my bombs. The audio and graphics are fantastic especially for the time limit.

This was really fun! I got stuck on level 13 and had to stop, but it was great! :D

I appreciate that you put the explosion radius outline on the floor, that helped me get a feel for the mechanic quickly. The puzzles were just the right length so that I didn't feel frustrated if I made a mistake near the end, and you did a great job of ramping up the difficulty and teaching new concepts! Really solid game!

Aweosme game !
An actual fully fleged concept with fun mechanics, actual difficulty, an actual retro look in terms of music and audio.

One of the best puzzle game of this jam, congrats guys !

I'm currently stuck on level 13, I'm sure there is something to do with the two bombs at the bottom, but I can't figure it out !

Nice stuff, great start menu, nice NES retro style, colours, movement, and everything fit together nicely.
No bugs or glitches encountered, very well done, you captured the NES style nicely =)

Great mechanic, nice art and sound.
The way the bombs work make a lot of sense and becomes second nature, expanding the radius every step you take is a great way to expand the mechanic. Also, the "warning" sounds for each step help a lot!

I see you're also a designer of culture, with Godot!b I really like the way the bomb changes shapes, and it looks like the way you built this allows for tons of different level construction. The UI is great and everything is messaged really well.

Nice twist on the classic "shokoban" mechanic.
Really love how I need to plan where I need to throw the bomb.

Level 14 in particular is the hardest for me.

this game is really good, the tutorial is well made and the puzzle mechanic are quite interesting, would make a good mobile game if you invested on that I believe, also love how you gave credit to the engine at first, well done man, well done

This was like classic Zelda meets classic Bomberman and I LOVED IT. Great look, great music, and great level design! Hate to admit I got stuck on level 13 and if someone could throw me a hint I'd love to finish!

I did find a small error - "left?" lol.

Thanks for all the amazing feedback. Glad that you all are enjoying our game. We see that a few people are struggling with level 13 and decided to post a hint. We want to remind you that there is always the possibility to skip a level through the level select from the main menu. A special thanks to @pixelydian for pointing out our errors, lol.

Spoilers!!!

See what happens when you throw a bomb at the top most bomb

Saw the artstyle and had to give it a go! Really good use of the theme.

The melody reminds me of metroid and donkey kong melodies!

Really really nice game! Fantastic concept with the puzzler, a handful of levels were quite challenging actually, (level 4, got me and so did 14) Awesome stuff, fantastic 8 bit NES styled graphics, audio fit perfectly and amazing concept on the theme. Overall lovely stuff! :)
