i have a few minor gripes, but it's still probably the best sokoban game i've played, so far.

edit: i think i now like playing indie games upon release that have yet to get a proper walkthrough. i guess i could ask on message boards, but i'm determined to finish this with only my damn brain.

it was a bit touch n go there for a minute, one of the solutions was pretty obvious and so i felt stupid for finally catching it. and of course other parts make me feel like a genius instead. sometimes i'll be overthinking it and other times i'll be underthinking it, but i think i got a handle on what the game is asking, finally. once you manage to get the flippers, things start to make more sense.

i almost want to say the game never giving hints as to whether you can or cannot finish a puzzle depending on your current equipment is a flaw, but after awhile figuring out if you can complete a particular puzzle now or have to later is just another part of the over-arching puzzle. you just have to start prioritizing new equipment/abilities over keys/stars.
