The thing about a prickle is that it sticks together, no matter what. But it does make it hard to go through the forest's narrow corridors.

I really want to give this game a higher rating.. but I can't. The difficulty curb shifts drastically by the last few levels, it's enough that it impacts the experience. I 100% get that this is a Game Jam entry with limited time to plan out levels though.

As far as Game Jams are concerned, this is incredible! I wouldn't have known if it weren't for the description. Then again, Game Jams have a tendency to produce hidden gems.

Well done!

Is it even possible to complete the last 4 levels? At least I'm able to skip them using J.

This was fun and cute! :D

Wow, this was a solid little puzzler you got here! For the most part, everything feels well-done: charming graphics/sound and presentation, interesting concept of sticking blocks together which is cleverly elevated with the porcupine theming, good level design that subtly teaches and slowly ramps up the complexity, and some nice juice on top with stuff like having the game show you can't rotate by playing a bumpy animation and that cute little dance and music jingle that plays at the end of a level. Sure, it's not necessarily gonna take the world by storm or revolutionize anything, but its a good bit of puzzle-y fun, so hey, what more can I ask for? Well...actually, if I were to ask for anything, it might be a save/load: some of these puzzles are tough and I would've loved to be able to take a break and come back later without having to redo everything to get back!

cool
