Very well done level design and arts, really enjoyed this game! <3
This is wildly creative, as soon as I understood what you had to do to win I was determined to finish! Awesome application of the theme, I also love the style choice and art here. The different heads are all really detailed and cool ✨
Very nice game and the level design is really good. Well done!
My god was that fun. That last level got me scratching my head really badly, amazing work!
I liked how polished it was regarding rules. I never encountered a state that the game hasn't thought about before.
If I can give a suggestion it would be to have a go-back action button, but most levels weren't that long to dread its absence. Also maybe having the masks and colors be consistent regarding their move in all levels would be a nice touch (by introducing new colors, that is).
All in all, it was a pleasure to play. Thank you for sharing!
Very cool idea and some interesting levels. I especially liked the level with the roles of moving right 0, 1, or 2 spaces. I agree with @Ben Flavell below about the chairs being colored being confusing, might be nice to not have those be visually linked when any actor can land on them to win.
Love the idea!
I had to come back after the stream and beat that last level!! Took me way too long! I was overcomplicating it big time- I loved the game!
haha, thanks for finishing the game :D
Relly fun puzzle. That last one took me a while. Then I actually managed to do it in 7 turns instead of 8 according to the game.
Incredibly well done with this! Really interesting puzzles out of such a simple mechanic!
My only nit picks are that it was a bit misleading having the chairs be coloured when any actor can end up there and it would be nice to be able to cycle multiple actors instead of individually swapping pairs of them.
I had a blast playing it, perfect length for a jam game, the puzzles kept getting more and more interesting and challenging. I even discovered that I beat the par times on the last 2 levels which is pretty encouraging! Seriously amazing job!
Sorry but I had no idea how to play this.
Nice game
very unique!
Super cool concept!
Ok. This is awesome. Like, this is seriously a good puzzler. But I thought I had to match the colors of the chairs with the colors of the mask and got pretty stuck, until I realized that any chair is fine.
Really cool concept - and the first one I've played where the theme isn't just that you play as something else in a popular game. This is a fresh take on roles reversed.
Thanks for playing our game :D. you are right, this was initially our plan, but since you can switch masks without penalties it doesn't really matter where you end up placing, as long as all actors end on a seat! The color now is merely a suggestion or hint as to how the puzzle could be solved
