Github: https://github.com/approxit/impsbru

Getting Started
Follow the edges of the shapes with red cube and finish the level by walking on the red rectangle. It's tricky because shapes are impossible to exist in 3 dimensions. Squeeze your brain!

This game is made for specific hardware. To properly run this game you will need:
Literally any Amiga (but tested with Amiga 500 and Kickstart 1.3) or compatible Amiga emulator like WinUAE.

Installing: Copy the latest game release archive and extract to directory that Amiga can load. The bin and data directories must coexist as given.
Running the game
Game must be stared from main executable file located in bin/impsbru. In AmigaDOS CLI you can use following commands:
1> cd impsbru/bin
1> impsbru
Controls

m / , / . - moves cursor at south west / south / south east direction, if possible

thats pretty fucking brilliant :-D

Looks very interesting

This is a fucking amazing engine!
But a shame that it doesn't come with puzzles, so I'm not sure I 'd call it a "game", if I have to make my own levels.

I hope you can expand on it and work on some game design/design levels! I really really love this idea.

Yes, and this post is a continuation of my post that Amiga still have the most impressive homebrew scene. Now, all the people who said they can't code/paint/compose/write docs, still can contribute by creating amazing levels for this kewl game.

P.S. I am not the author of this game, even if I am a BIG fan of puzzle games and created many over the years.

Did I understand right, though, that it has only 10 slots for puzzles?
I hope somebody can expand that.

Looks great, but needs levels and some sound/music ...Great start though

If You need some tunes let me know; this game seems a good excuse to go full Jarre

LuMan · 27 October 2017, 08:29

That looks pretty darned good!!

Maybe an intra-thread mini-compo to see who can make the most mind-bending puzzle with it..?

Awesome concept, but still a kind of construction set, not a real game (coz there is no a real challenge). Needs some more work to build an actual game above it. But I love its idea and simplistic look.
