Pixel Pickle

What is the game about?

A puzzle game where you move 3 blocks at the same time, and have to separate them using the walls. Get your blocks on the white spots to clear the level.

WARNING: GAME IS PRETTY UNFINISHED - the game is not completed and is more like a proof of concept. Expect unpolishedness and crashes

Controls

Arrow keys to move, space to confirm selection in the menu

Dev controls

• f1/f2: skip through the levels (warning: might crash game)
• f3: go to secret dev room where you can see some planned mechanics
• f4: turn off the fancy lighting (can be too dark on some screens)

Story behind the development

My second game made using Game Maker Studio 2. After Project Reflect, I wanted to keep it simple. I decided to make a puzzle game which I thought was not hard to program. During development, I focused too much on how the game looked, making several iterations and eventually using this totally unecessary fancy lighting engine. Because I was not programming cleanly, the code became an absolute mess, and I quickly lost interest in the project.
