A nice little puzzle game that reminded me of the days of Flash where you'd find weird little puzzle games like this all over Newgrounds or what have you. Kinda left me wanting more regular levels since they were actually quite fun to figure out, which is probably a good sign. The [spoiler]true last boss puzzle[/spoiler] could probably have been split into two since it's fairly long, but that's about my only complaint. Unfortunately my complimentary Ice Slizer joke got lost in the mail.
A fun little puzzle game! I think the levels are fun and can be a little tricky to get a hang of, providing a good experience! The art is delightful and I enjoyed the characters I met as I played. I completed the game in about 4 hours, which makes it a bite sized experience... but man it is one tasty bite of some scrumptious cheddar! I would seriously recommend this to anyone who has some money to spend and a bit of time to kill! I would love if more was eventually added, it's such a fun loop of combining and practicing the timing of the rules in the game to get the solution. But for the price I got plenty already! Props to the team behind this, it ruled!
