This game is about a guy who is stuck in a circular dungeon and the only thing that he can do is to move forward by doing tasks/puzzles, at the same time trying not to die. R restarts the game, Space makes you able to move boxes and spikes kill you. You will go to spawn after 45.

Theme

Doesn't feel like the game has to do with loops.

Not sure, the game forms a loop?

I guess it makes sense. And it definitely gets the atmosphere right. I wish there had been more to it, but I guess there really wasn't time. Would have benefitted from the aesthetics.

Many times, I got stuck on the boxes and could not move.

Enjoyment

Feels like the block puzzles in old Legend of Zelda games. I wasn't much of a fan of those.

Gameplay feels smooth.

It's okay I guess?

While there were puzzles it was nice. The movement feels awkward.

It's nice but once you do one loop it's not clear what to do. I guess it makes sense as you're stuck in the loop :)

Aesthetics

I like the pixel art. Gloomy.

Love the character you play. Very appealing design.

The art style in-game is solid, but the menu was too dark. Audio missing, story only in the description.

It could really have benefitted from some music.

Innovation

Nothing novel.

There was design put into the placement of the boxes, but it's largely uninnovative.

The idea was there, but it needed to be fleshed out more.

Bonus

Game does not do enough to warrant extra points.

Lovely color palette .

It was difficult to do the first puzzle due to the clunky movements. The artwork in-game is okay!

Cool art style
