Procrastination
It all started with a simple game mechanic idea...
Then this game stayed in the drawer for more than a year.
I couldn't find any good backstory matching with it nor the energy to get it done.
And then the "unfinished business" Bitsy jam theme echoed with its state.
I had to do something for this game before it starts to rot. Therefore the title.
...Anyway for you to know there is a checkpoint system and an easter egg in it!
Made with Bitsy as always, sfx with bfxr

Thanks for the game!
I was so frustrating no to be able to access the other part of the maze! Yet another great project fell victim to procrastination...
Very nice floor and wall patterns! the screen is very densely filled with tiles, but it never feels cramped or too busy. And I admire your restraint in use of color: it would have been so easy to overuse the colors hack and make the game look too motley, but you've avoided it.
The level design and puzzles are of the highest quality! Maze mechanics are well introduced and strike balance between simplicity and complicacy. It's a pity there's only so little of the maze you can explore! The checkpoint system is neat too, although on my first playthrough I've headed immediately into the warp room and didn't know what combination to use to get out of it. So maybe 911 hint should be included inside the room too.
Also, I think I've noticed a bug: you can get onto the wall from a specific tile without ladder (see screenshot below)
Thanks for the feedback! Don't know what to say... Except there WILL be a sequel. It really takes a huge amount of time to put this game together. That bug is minor compared to the fear i had of exits ending nowhere. Thank you again! Stay tuned for the rest of this maze (:
