Pros: Graphics, sound effects, nice physics.
Cons: A bit glitchy, can be confusing at times, and it seems like the puzzles have no order to them.
Review for 'Puzzle Blob'
This is a good game to play if you like good physics, graphics, and sound effects, although it is glitchy. I loved the physics, but the puzzles just didn't cut it for me. They were big levels, and it seems as if there is no order in which you must complete things. I just went around the level doing random things and eventually got to the finish, not knowing how I had done so. I know a game like this would require some advanced programming, and it is very well done if you ask me, but the gameplay just wasn't.... fun.
A few glitches I thought I might point out:
-You can repeatedly jump on the wall to go as high as you want.
-In the main menu, if the blob falls underneath the moving vertical platform, the background goes away.
-In one of the puzzle levels you can fall way to the bottom of the room, and the only way to get back up is to jump on the walls and ceiling.
Overall, good job programming, but I'd enjoy it much more if you knew what you were doing to complete the levels ;)

Thanks for mentioning how to improve gameplay, and you're right, the levels are a bit linear (this opens this door, and go through that door to do the next thing, etc.). We'll try to fix that up ;) Also, the glitches you mentioned should be able to be fixed :)

Thanks!
Ah, yes. Levels. Yep.
I've made many puzzle engines (seem to really like making them), but the hardest part for me is making good puzzle levels.
TO ALL: MAKE LEVELS AND SEND THEM TO US!
