The Sorcerer's Detritus
An eight-puzzle game made with the theme "magician's hat."
Keyboard controls: arrow keys or WASD to move; [Z] to undo moves; [R] to reset. [X] will advance text or select options from the main menu, but does nothing in-game. [Escape] will return you to the main menu.
Touchscreen controls: tap at the main menu; swipe to move; open the tab menu in the upper left to undo moves and reset.
Hackable version: https://www.puzzlescript.net/play.html?p=c666ff2174192c180a806144e8a38155

Amusing concept. I quite like how random objects get generated from the hat! haha. It adds a lot. I found myself really wanting the ability to put objects back into the hat; I imagine this is something you tried though.
I never actually really tried messing around with being able to put objects back into the hat, not because I never thought of it but because a fundamental part of the design for me was always the permanence of object creation and having to deal with the mess you made. Having that ability would trivialize a few situations in the game, but that's not to say a different experience couldn't be made with it.
Wow, really enjoyed this one!
the game feel in this is so satisfying and hilarious, especially pushing against a wall. the intro scene made me laugh as well, lovely!
oh wow 4 puzzles in and these are so elegant...
edit: 10 days later, finished it, one of my favourite puzzle games ever
I like the tagline of this game.
Looks simple but actually very tricky, impressive!
