| Small Update #3 | 2024-06-13 | I'm continuing to work to improve the game. Some larger fixes: -Added controller glyphs for most puzzles, and some controller support. This is an ongoing project. Some puzzles are still difficult to do with controller (Five-Year-Old, Draft) and one you still can't do (Enter Password). I'm hoping to add full controller support soon. -Made performance improvements. This is an ongoing project. I am working at rewriting the main puzzle selection code, which is really not performant. I also was able to reduce the size of the game download by 50%. Some smaller changes: -Changed menu text to show the game saves automatically -Changed new game maze t |
| Small Update #2 (And 200,000+ downloads!) | 2024-03-18 | Two small updates: -Added a 4K resolution option -Ensured the options button was always on top, so it couldn't be covered up and lost under the mazes ALSO "20 Small Mazes" passed 230,000 downloads recently! That is a crazy number! I am extremely grateful, and the response to "20 Small Mazes" will be a memory I will always cherish. I've really enjoyed reading your reviews, how much you liked my daughter's artwork, and how much you truly hated the sliding puzzle. My next game won't have a sliding puzzle, maybe. Thank you all for playing! FLEB |
| Small Update #1 | 2024-02-22 | Made a few changes: 1. Added a brightness slider in the options. 2. Gravity has been having some intermittent issues. I made a few adjustments, and also added a reset. Now if you press "r" the puzzle should reset. 3. For the Password puzzle, you no longer need to press "enter" to enter the password. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #10 | 2024-02-20 | -Added some missing collision to cloudy day -Fixed a bug in climb that led to being stuck if switching puzzles on a 1x2 tile with two staircases FLEB |
| Hotfix #9 | 2024-02-19 | Made a small change to climb to try to prevent the dot from escaping if the maze is moving quickly while changing floors. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #8 | 2024-02-18 | Fixed two bugs: 1. Fixed issue where two pieces could move at once in the sliding maze 2. Fixed issue where switching between puzzles while solving climb could result in odd stair behaviors. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #7 | 2024-02-18 | Fixed a bug where if you went to the options menu right after beating the game and clicked "return to game", it overwrote your save file. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #6 | 2024-02-18 | Just one bugfix this time. Fixed an issue where if you put the dot two squares below the exit on the sliding puzzle, and moved the piece down, the puzzle solved itself. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #5 | 2024-02-17 | Fixed two issues: 1. Make climb more robust. This should take care of the intermittent issues with that puzzle. 2. Fixed a bug where a very specific set of menu transitions could erase your save file. -FLEB |
| Hotfix #4 | 2024-02-17 | Two small changes: 1. Added numpad enter as a way to enter on the "password" puzzle 2. Fixed sliding maze bug where the player could end up offset from the grid if you moved and clicked at the same time. -FLEB |
