This was a fun game. Last level took me quite a few tries. After figuring it out, it was pretty simple.

Nearly impossible to play because I can't see my character unless I turn the brightness all the way up. Even then, it's a trial.

I'm with Anonymous #1, level 17 was tricky. I also liked the bit where the game mechanic seems to change around level 10 (a bit before, I think?), but actually if you go back you see it was the same mechanic all along.

A smashing good time!
None of those overly hard levels.
Loved the novel game mechanics.

I'm generally skeptical of both puzzlescript stuff and game jam submissions, but this one was excellent. Very good puzzles that made good use of the mechanics that were challenging in spots, but not ridiculous.

Can I get a hint for 17?

For 17, it's best to break down what you need to clear the two blocks on the right:

1) Send gravity down (so the left block drops)
2) Make gravity neutral, allowing you to push the second block one to the right
3) Send gravity upward, so to deposit the second block and clear the tunnel
4) Make gravity neutral, to exit

...There's some work to figure out how to achieve these things and escape, but breaking it down helped me get there

Thanks for the clue! That helped a lot! Ready for more levels!

Anonymous at 22:08, can you turn on gravity without falling into the "pit" at the top center?

nevermind about level 16. power of posting lol

for anyone else who needs a hint: think about how you can push a block while falling in the right spot.

I played #17 for two days, I mean I would play the game and I'd do other
stuff too, cut a little grass, then get right back to the game. I'd get
frustrate and go out side and look around the yard, then go back to the
game. I was determined to bet 17. Then today at 10:00 pm I won. I finally
figured it out. Good boy.

Same for 17 after figuring it out it looks easy, but finding first and/or second step was not easy.

Seems like all of us have finished the levels so far. Here's to Toombler hopefully adding more levels to this game and Bart hopefully adding more games here for us to play.

Hey, if anyone sees this, I finally updated this game with some more levels ;)

@Toombler I love your game and am totally stuck on level 27 - can anyone help a guy out?

i've just beat level 27, here's a hint:
the first gravity you have to activate is downward, so how do you reach the ceiling?
