I can't even get past the first level. There must be something I'm missing about this game.

PK: hint: look at the thumbnail image...

join the two hearts, the gear wheels are just there to both help and obstruct you

wimp said...

ah, made it to the end. great fun, satisfyingly challenging. but i don't like when you don't know how many levels there are to go

Nice puzzles. Annoying with no levels, not save; also not knowing how far the arms can go until you try. Still, worth playing.

PK: feel the same...
WASD are not alternative commands

PK said...

@jdoe, THANK YOU. That's what I was missing. Nowhere is it explained that WASD controls one arm and UDLR controls the other, so I never even touched WASD. The game makes sense once that's known.

First Finisher! Took awhile, lots of thinking about how else could the level be completed! Good puzzle game!

Annoying. Passed the first level, good enough for me.

One of the levels (i think it's the last one) has you navigate around two "human" figures

List of people who can not complete this level:
Me
Hopefully not you

I'm up to level 6 and its tough!

I'm not used to WASD so forget it, I'm moving on to the next one.

What a great puzzler! Excellent! Bravo!

Had to try out a lot first before I got how to finish a level but now I finished all levels and they were lots of fun!
