A downloadable game for Windows

Hi! Nested is a grid based puzzle game made as part of the Game Makers Tool Kit 2024 Jam. The theme was: Built to Scale.

The idea was to play as nesting dolls of differents sizes and colors. You can then move  and fit them into each other. You also have buttons in the environment that allows you to change your scale and colors based on the order you have stacked your dolls.

Hope you like it! (sorry in advance,  the puzzles might be difficult...)


Controls:

- Moving: 'WASD', Arrow keys or Joystick

- Eject: press 'E' on keyboard or 'X' on controller

- Go back One Move: press 'Q' on keyboard or 'B' on controller

- Press 'Start' on controllers or 'P' on keyboard if you want to restart level or quit game

Hey! Great game! I did notice a bug though if you wanted to check it out. On the second level with gates I got stuck as the tiny orange doll in the medium red doll after I passed the right game and ejected by accident. I couldn't head left since I wasn't red and couldn't go right into the bigger orange doll. If there was a button to uneject I would be able to get back in the doll. I couldn't find a pause menu or a way to restart the level but those would fix the getting stuck issue as well.

Hi! Ive been working on the game a bit. I fixed two things. First I added the hability to close de dolls (uneject as you say hahaha) by maintaining down the eject button. And second, i fixed the Undo function which did not always worked before (by pressing Q). 

The pause menu should be working. Its activated by pressing P. In there, you'll find an option to restart the current level. But you could also have found another bug... 

Thanks for checking out the game and the feedback! :)

very cool

lovely game !
there may be a bug on the last stage, i thought i had it figured out & it took a level restart to get it working.
