About This Game Congratulations, warehouse keeper! You've been promoted!Little Square Things is a Sokoban-like puzzle game. The objective is simple: Move boxes around to cover up some panels.But this isn't your father's warehouse. In Little Square Things, you are the boxes. All of them. All of the Square Things respond to your every move, and so it's up to you keep them coordinated, in sync, and in line. Guide them through a series of challenging (and hazardous!) environments to get those panels covered!It also draws inspiration from games like Brix and Chip's Challenge. From walls to water, from bullets to buzzsaws -- other elements either stand in your way or help you out, depending on your perspective. And different Square Things behave differently. Some follow your commands directly and to the letter, though some slip and slide or laze about until pushed. And some Square Things have to be sacrificed for the greater good. And if that weren't enough, the geometry itself is an obstacle: Boards wrap around, and null spaces literally don't exist.As a master shepherd of sheep and cats alike, you are the Square Things' beacon of hope in these complicated times.New! Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA) and SoundBlaster support!With its futuristic 16-color graphics and Musical Instrument Digital Interface, Little Square Things is going to blow you away. So boot up your i386, tinker with your CONFIG.SYS, and crack your knuckles in preparation for that DOS prompt, because it's time to play a game! Also, it's 1991!Reach for the stars!As you nab stars, you unlock more levels. Cover your panels to earn stars, and complete levels under a certain number of moves to earn more.When you revisit a level, though, you'll find it to be familiar but subtly different. It turns out that you've unlocked another goal for the level: collecting star shards. The layout's the same, but the tactics are much, much different. You'll have to be prepared to bend your thinking accordingly.Content!The Free to Play version of the game includes 30 levels. "The Whole Thing" DLC adds another 80. 7aa9394dea Title: Little Square ThingsGenre: Indie, Strategy, Early AccessDeveloper:gbelo GamesRelease Date: 30 Apr, 2019 Little Square Things Download Pc Games 88 the little things australia square. little square things. the little things solo square I've been following the development of Little Square Things for a long time; and it feels like a game from another era in the very best way.

But PLEASE read before checking it out!: Full disclosure.The DLC has been released, but keep in mind that it's DLC for a game that's still in Early Access. The base game may have bugs associated with reading the DLC in the first place.We'd recommend holding off on purchasing until it's confirmed to, you know, actually work.. v. 05/04/2019 - Gotta go slow sometimes: Added a few things: A more obvious speed indicator (speedometer?) in the GUI. Some early levels, where applicable, simply show what the speed controls are. This may or may not be overkill. An experimental branch, full of debuggy goodness.The speed updates apply to both the full version and the demo version."Yes, we get it. You can control the game speed.". DLC de-listed from purchase -- for now: Until the DLC is verified to work (i.e. to unlock the next 80 levels), the option to purchase it has been disabled.Again, although this is an Early Access game, it's not exactly fair to purchase something only to find out that (at least at the time you purchased it) it's literally nothing other than a checkbox on your Library page. It's sort of like a pre-order, but still... nah. We still don't want to do that.If you've already purchased it, your license will still be valid when it's verified working and released into the wild again. Not many of you are affected by this, but if you are and would like a refund we'd be happy to accommodate.. ver 03/12/2019 - Slight tweaks: First, the official release date's going to be postponed for a few months. At some point, we're going to start casting an even wider net for feedback; and we want to allow some time for that.That's good news, mostly, because the paid part of the game is discounted during Early Access. Hooray!Second, this version includes: Title screen animation Menu layouts matching features to be included, even if just as placeholders Reintroduced Achievements to the Level Select screen, as a way of collecting all of your level goals in one place. Minor bug fixesThat's it for now.. ASK THE AUDIENCE: Controlling the game speed... more obviously. : tldr: Speed and speed controls need to be made more obvious In watching some Let's Plays, it seems like folks sometimes get stuck on levels where you need to take things slowly and carefully. Take 3-10, where the goal is basically to solve the level in 11 moves, at which point the Buzzsaw's gonna wreck a Crate already sitting on a Panel, causing you to lose.Now, it can be played like an "action" level, where reflexes and speed come into play. It's even possible to complete it on full speed. But that's not necessarily the intent. If you think an action/reflexes-based approach is your only option, your game experience is artificially limited. You don't know what tools are in your toolbox. The thing is that you have control over the game's speed. Dynamically, within the game. You can speed it up. You can even hold a button to fast forward in case you're waiting for a bullet to destroy a pile of rubble or something so you can press forward. You can also decrease the speed to the point that the game runs turn-by-turn. Or, turn-based or bullet time or whatever you'd like to call it. Bullets and buzzsaws will pause and wait for you to make a move. You can stop and think about every single move you make. You can even "pass" a turn and just wait a frame by pressing SPACE or button A. You can take those 11 moves one at a time if you want. Speed up by pressing > or button RT, down by pressing < or LT. The thing is that the only hints that you can do this are (a) that there's a little icon in the HUD showing your speed, and (b) the "How to Play" screen shows speed up/down controls. This needs to be fixed.For one thing, the HUD is going to be more apparent in what speed you're at, and that there are actually multiple speeds. Make it larger, give it a speedometer of sorts to convey that speed can change. For another thing... well, that's where you and I have some options: Overlay speed controls on 1-4, the first level in which some things (Ice Cube) move automatically depending on game speed. Maybe also a few other early levels, such as 2-1, where you first encounter Bullets. The only problem is that you can skip levels, but then again chances are that you won't skip 1-4 at first. Put a Bullet bouncing around in 1-1, out of the way, to demonstrate that some things move automatically. Possibly also with an overlay of movement controls. A dialog box along the lines of "hey you can control your speed". (Not my favorite option, because we'd rather show than tell. I'm keen on option 1.Any other thoughts? What have you seen that works? I'd love for us to make this game the best and most accessible it can be. ... also, I need to implement the ability to remap controls. That's coming.. Thank you!: Just wanted to give a quick but well-deserved thank you to those who've given the full game a go, whether you bought it or were grandfathered in. The reception has been humbling.If you've enjoyed the game so far, please consider writing a quick review. It would be a tremendous help in keeping development progressing.I also highly welcome continued feedback on the Steam forums, announcements, and discussion posts. We're still in Early Access, so there's plenty to help shape! Even the most minute suggestions have had a great impact -- a little usability tweak here, a little graphical fix there, and perhaps a couple of pruned or tweaked levels help polish the experience. (Wild and crazy suggestions are still more than welcome, because of course they are.)And if you've just stumbled upon this game's page, I invite you to check out the demo. It will evolve just as the full game will. The three new short trailers also help give you a picture of what the game's all about.Happy Squaring!. Quick patch: version "02/21/2019 21:45:44": Version "02/21/2019 21:45:44" (on the BIOS) is up. It'll be 22:03:03 for insiders.A few minor changes/fixes: Increased the difficulty of a few of the Shard Stars (the "third star" that becomes available when a level is cleared). See 2-3, "The Squareshank Shapedemption", for one example.One reason for this is that, in some levels, the shards might be way too easy to collect because the level layout doesn't call for any sort of challenging ways to place them. Easy is fine once in a while, because some levels are hard enough that clearing them in the first place makes you deserving of more stars. And a break!But there shouldn't be many cases of "just enter the level again and grab the shards because they're just right there," because that would defeat the purpose. Fixed a crash that occurs clearing 3-10, because 4-1 doesn't exist in the "shareware" version. If you encountered this, the game shouldn't think that you're on 4-1 any longer, and you should be able to play again. Please leave a comment if it still does. Removed the splash screen, because the DOS bootup screen is basically one anyway. Credits and "Special Thanks" will be given in-game soon. On selecting "Play", the game now takes you straight to the last level you were on... at least for now. Because loading the level select screen too quickly after just launching the game causes crashing, and we haven't pinpointed the issue just yet. We'll be fixing it "for real," of course, but in the meantime you we think you should have as bug-free an experience as possible. Plus, you're getting to the action a fraction of a second earlier! Clearing a level takes you back to the Level Select screen, with the next level highlighted. This is more intuitive than the "Where next?" menu while also giving a clear-cut way to allow you to re-enter a level, or choose another one, pretty quickly.Making sure that the game is actually playable -- cutting out those crashes -- is still top priority. We don't want to release any paid content until those are fixed. Because even though we're still in Early Access, it's simply not fair to pay for something that doesn't work like it should.There will be incremental updates even when those aren't fixed, though, because we don't want to hold back what will at least be in the free version. In the works are some graphical updates and music. Along with some of your feature suggestions... so keep those coming!. v. "04/09/2019" -- The "it's been a little while" update: It's been a little while. But long enough of a while that this this list may not be comprehensive. Added a final level. Clearing that level is essentially the (non-100%) win condition.Well, two final levels, really, depending on your version. In the full version, it's "The Gauntlet" and comes as the 111th level. In the free version, it's "The Fauxntlet" as level 31.The prologue and endings are storyboarded but not fully programmed or triggered normally yet. They do exist, though. Most of the level layouts have been made to "fit" their world better. Grass Land levels look more open and sprawling, Spooky Castle Land is claustrophopbic, Cold Land looks more like an arctic environment, Zed Land's got prominent borders, and so on. The levels are functionally exactly the same as they were before, meaning that the solutions haven't changed at all; they just look more fitting. There are sidewalk chalk marks (such as arrows and circles) that you'll see from time to time. The gameplay is still very much "just try it and see what happens" and so these don't really give away solutions, but they'll nudge you a tiny bit at least in some of the early levels. 1-1 and 1-5 are good examples of how they're used.Top priority will be figuring out how free+full will be offered: as F2P+DLC or demo+paid. Really depends on some Steam logistics.Happy squaring!
