Micro Micro
A one-screen puzzle made for Confounding Calendar 2023.
Controls:
- Z is undo
- R is restart
- WASD or arrow keys for movement
- ESC exits to the menu

This game was made in PuzzleScript. The level layout is a riff on the default PuzzleScript project with Microban puzzles originally by David Skinner.
Here is a hint in rot13 which might help with the mechanics (not much of a spoiler): Gur ovt pengrf zbir ba gur ovt tevq.

That was a cool "aha!" :)
great "aha" moment!
Slightly bonkers - but I got there in the end. Fun! :)
XD
Absurd and hilarious! Satisfying how the microban 1 layout turns out to be interesting to navigate in this way. Reminds me of Inbox Unbox!
Glad you enjoyed :D
Holy moly. Good puzzle! Can't believe I was able to figure it out.
Thanks! Nice work :)
this is even more interesting than I expected!
Thanks!
huh? wow this is confusing
edit: oh wow i actually figured it out... time to actually do the level
edit 2: yay, i win!
and thanks for following me! (even though i don't know why anyone intelligent would follow a person with 0 content)
Whoops, you’re not supposed to be here yet XD
(I followed for the lure of secret future projects ;) )
uhhh... yeah to release a future project i have to code it first
I have like 30+levels but idk how to code it into puzzlescript
Btw headlong hunt is so cool :) thanks for 8 hours and counting of enjoyment
oh awesome, glad you’re enjoying the game!
Here’s the basics of Puzzlescript https://www.puzzlescript.net/Documentation/rules101.html, then if you need some help the Thinky Puzzle Games discord is a good place to ask
The problem is that i don’t think my game is possible to implement in puzzlescript.
It’s basically flow free with line intersection, color merging, portals, buttons, and different grids (last feature is planned but i’m not sure if i’m good enough to design a puzzle that works well)
Will check out the discord though! Kind of surprised that i haven’t joined the discord even after playing games like conveyer confusion haha
might be possible but quite hard yeah. Sounds like you already have the puzzles designed on paper? Maybe that’s an ok final format
ah, so this is what the game was supposed to be for. oops!
