About:
This game was made for GMTK Game Jam in 3 days . The Theme was: LOOP
I quickly came up with an idea. I was reminded of the glass pipes from Super Mario 3D World and wanted to make an entire game based on these. I first started in 3D, but struggled to make the game, so I restarted, but this time in 2D and with minimalist graphics.
Extra Story:
You found this rhyme and wondered what is inside this pipe maze.
Through metal pipes the paths unfold,
But not all routes are wise or bold.
The end you seek is where you start—
So plan each turn, and play it smart.

I like the concept of the game, a simple puzzle which fits the theme of the jam nicely. The art and music felt very suitable for the game, simple and relaxing. I would like the levels to be more challenging, though.
Cute concept, would love it if it would be more obvious from the start what direction pipes flow in, then I could focus on solving it first and afterwards focusing on the execution, or in the stuck case just to both at the same time but in a more structured way ^^'
Really enjoyed the game, fun combination of mechanics and short but satisfying puzzles, music wasn't bad either
very nice puzzle game! well done
