Plannerman (Alpha)
Plannerman
I know it. You know it. We both know it. People dread the work week, and want to get to the weekend. The moment Monday begins people already charting the path of least resistance to get to Saturday.
So is Plannerman.
In this puzzle platformer game, you run the life of Plannerman, a poor office drone who's just trying to get from weekend to weekend. Plan events for him throughout the week so that he can cross over the Monday blues and those other four pesky work days to get to his next weekend.
Developer's note: first, this is a prototype. If you've seen this before, you may have seen the even earlier prototype on Playcanvas. Second, it’s possible to access all the levels without first having to play through each one sequentially. Just use the level select. If you can’t get past a level, you can at least explore all of them. And yes, they are all solvable. Comments are appreciated. Please enjoy the game.

I really like that I have access to all levels and can explore them, since I couldn't solve most of the levels. I don't see this in many games. Usually you'd have to solve the levels sequentially, to unlock the next one.
I didn't understand how it really works at first, so most of the time I just solved the puzzles through trial and error. Around the middle of the game, or late middle, I kinda understood how it works, understood the trick.
I like the implicit story, pretty cool. Maybe music would have added to the experience, but i understand it's a prototype.
It was fun, even if i didn't manage to solve all the puzzles, since I liked exploring the levels and seeing what new mechanics would be added, what new titles of levels would be added, which would add to the implicit story. I'd like an unlimited hint button or something like that, since i'd like to explore the solutions of the puzzles as well.
Here's a video of me playing your game, if you need it. Link available for 7 days.
