About:

A pixel-art block-pushing puzzle from js13k 2024, where it placed 4th overall. Each level gives you only 13 steps or actions before you respawn, so every crate push, key and lever has to count. It has undo and reset, a proper level select, and a level editor that lets you share your own puzzles as a URL. Inspired by Isles of Sea and Sky.
