Description
This is my first ever Flash game. I've been studying AS3 for a month or so, but it's been an 'on and off' affair, and so I thought I needed a clear target to get serious with it for real.
So I 'self-commissioned' this game to myself, while actually making it for a friend's website (the aforementioned friend works as an artisan, of course).
And so, here we go: I made this in a week (there are just 5 levels, though!), aiming for Game Boy Color graphics (only overlays and transparencies aren't GBC-compliant). Please enjoy. =)
How to Play
Arrows move the Artisan. While playing, press Q to get back to the main menu and R to restart the current level.

A cute little game, though I got bored of the puzzles very quickly. Only thing I can suggest is to put more emphasis on the block we're supposed to be pushing? Perhaps make them flash at the start, or make the one in the bottom right flash, as I hadn't even noticed that until about the 4th or 5th o.O

You're totally right: I tried to make the movable objects flash so that they could catch the player's attention, but I didn't find a way to achieve that. That's why I added the object in the bottom right corner, it was a necessary afterthought. And yes, it isn't easily noticeable anyway. Thanks for your comment, anyway! =)

Well i like the game, but it would be cool if it looked a bit better, and if there were a reset button, so i dont have to refresh the site everytime i do a mistake ;)
The game doesn't look really nice because I'm not a graphic artist =) and I chose to work on Game Boy Color specifications, so that I could take it easier. =D As for mistakes, you can press 'R' while playing to restart the current level, just in case you pushed something the wrong way. Thanks for your comment! =)

nice litle puzzler for a decent enough coffeebreak! :)
Thank you! =D Although I'm afraid the coffee would last longer than my little game, since it's only got 5 levels. =)

For a month of study that's not bad. Keep on doing work you'll get better fast. :D
Thank you! =)

Not bad at all. I agree with the other two's criticisms... I had no idea you could reset the board by pressing 'r.' Im sure it's under 'info' but I'd like to see it onscreen while I play.
Yes, it's under Info and I couldn't really find a place to stick it on the playscreen. That Game Boy Color resolution just left me with soooo little spare space... =)
