Itty Bitty Boxy Thingy - dem0 - 48 Hour Compo Entry
This is my entry for LD#23 compo.
The game is called 'Itty Bitty Boxy Thingy'. It's a Sokoban-like puzzle game in which your goal is to gather all diamonds and push blocks to reserved areas. But watch out! There are evil robots off to kill you! Just dodge them or grab a magic potion which kills every robot in the level.
The game is graphically and otherwise very tiny, so I recommend that you choose the 'stretched'-option in launch screen.
The game has 16 levels that vary a little. Some are completely based on puzzles while some are based on running from enemies.

It's pretty much Sokoban, with some additional features. Not much else to say. Quite decent. Props for making your own music.
Nice work, instantly engaging and addictive! I love these sort of puzzle games! This game has the most longevity of the games i've tried so far ;)
I agree with hulahulahest (cheers DK!) on the mechanics side of things. It's not a new formula, but you've wielded the creation of new puzzles and a solid code base very well.
I like the style of guitar play you're going for, but possibly the low fidelity of the mic made the picking and sliding sound a bit more frazzled than it could have.
Nice sokoban clone with a little bit of additional features too. Props for the guitar music :-)
Hi dem0!
Overall I like your game, good graphics and fine managed controls. Maybe the part that I think that doesn't match with the game is the music, the sound effects do their job perfectly but the music gives, in my opinion, a slow sensation to the gameplay. I got a good impression of your game though and I'll return to play it again because I like the sokoban games and if they have robots and items I assure you that I'll come back.
Congratulations!
These tiny graphic are no good for my old eyes. THANK YOU for making a stretch verision
Cheerful music and relaxing multi-sokoban. Or, you know, kinda relaxing 'til it got super complicated and hard, heh.
Nifty puzzle game. As usual, a few Sokoban challenges had me scratching my head.
Quite good fun :) There's enough variation in there to keep players interested, too. Good work with the original music as well.
Good take on Sokoban. Good level design. I loved the Frogger level, though I kept pushing the boxes too far! +1 Music.
Fun game. One of the rare few with nice non-generated music :P Pretty fun but it is an idea I've seen before many times and from the first few levels I didn't really see much expansion on the idea of pushing boxes
Nice little Sokoban game you made. I liked the addition of the robots. The levels got quite complex after a bit. The main thing I was wanting for was some kind of indicator for boxes that were in the correct place, with the larger levels it was easy to forget which blocks were in place already. The tiny graphics make it hard to play for long.
