Well, I've been around for a while, and I've had a few projects, but I now have one I'm passionate about, it's a puzzle type game, and here's a screenshot:
I don't really know where I'm going with it, or what else to add, so that's where I need help from you, suggestions, I'm open to anything... I'll even let you have the game as it is now:

There are a few things I know I can do to make it run smoother, and I will be adding a walking animation, but suggestions would really be useful right now.
Thanks to DA for the charcter sprite, and Dysfunction for the screen shot and hosting.

Hey it does remind me of Res, and im sure it will be just as cool.
Great to see you are still working on stuff Merthsoft. Even in its current state, the game is very nice to play

I was slightly inspired by Res, I was stuck with my other ideas, and pretty much bored with them. I saw Res and thought "Hey, I should try something like that!" But sadly I'm stuck again... I'm not really planning on adding enemies, but maybe I will, I don't know yet...

I'm stuck on what to do next, I don't know what else to add, at least, I don't know what to add that wouldn't be redundent...
