Known Issues (Read me!)
- Some resolutions make the pixel art/transitions look funny, I recommend playing on 1920×1080 if possible!
- Level editor isn't able to create new levels. But you can still import a level and edit it from there. Please download the blank level in the discord...
I've found a bug!
Oops. Please reach out to me via the comments, Discord, Bluesky, anywhere works!
How many endings are there?
As per this demo, none! When the game's finished, though… :)
How many worlds/content is there?
There's a total of 3 hub worlds plus tons of secrets.
Right now, this demo only has World 1 as playable, without its secrets. Which is about 25% of the entire game.
How do I play the extra levels? (Spoilers)
To access extra levels, you have to do exactly the opposite of what you're doing. Leaving nothing behind.
Solution?
All you need to do is push all the boxes of a level into the “red areas”, without any extra boxes not being overlapping one. Basically, everything must be overlapping a “red area”.
Delete save data?
Go into the main menu, hold space, and type “zero”. You must confirm this action by inputting the code twice.
Need some extra help or want to talk about the game with others? There's a Discord Server! (Feedback is very much appreciated)
