Enemies

[8x8]
Bon - I can't generate ice on the neighboring tiles. There are a lot of them.

Eye - Move up, down, left and right. Aim well and walk on the ice.

Bili - It's a glowing ball that moves along the wall. It can't be defeated.

Remarks

This game is an action puzzle game inspired by "Solomon's Key 2". "Solomon's Key 2" is one of my favorite Famicom games. "Cryomancer" is a simpler top-down game.
Also, I'm not good at English, so there may be some strange English.

備考

このゲームは『ソロモンの鍵2』からインスパイアされて作ったアクションパズルゲームです。『ソロモンの鍵2』はファミコンソフトの中で最も好きなゲームの1つです。『Cryomancer』はよりシンプルな見下ろし型のゲームとなっています。
あと、私は英語が得意ではないので、変な英文があるかもしれません。

Really really nice polish, this is definitely going to end up on the "featured" page. The achievements made me want to complete the game, which I'm still trying to do right now. I found one tiny mistake, the level is "complete", not "complite"

Found a typo of "TRUN" when I'm figuring out how "X + arrow" acts.

Edit: finally finished it - the final level is tough and spent most of the times dodging those fireballs, but made it anyways!

Great puzzle game! I like how ice "sticks" to adjacent blocks to visually show they're immovable. Also the difficulty is well balanced too.

Google翻訳:

素晴らしいパズルゲームです!氷が隣接するブロックに「くっつく」のがいいですね。動けないことが視覚的にわかります。

また、難易度もバランスが取れています。

Thanks for the great feedback!
I have uploaded a new version with corrected spelling.

Clever level design. Gold star.

The puzzles are really good. The difficulty ramps up smoothly, and new game mechanics are introduced gradually, until each level is a real head-scratcher.

This is one of the best puzzle games I've played on Pico-8. Great job!

Glad to read everyone's comments.

The level design is the part I put a lot of effort into, so I'm relieved that it worked out.

It's fun to see screenshots after clearing a game.
In the next update, I plan to have an achievements screen where you can see the levels you have cleared and your best records.
