TENETEN
This game was created for the Thinky Puzzle Game Jam 5 under the theme "Rare animals."
You are a marten (called "ten" in Japanese). It seems this animal can move not only forward in time but also in reverse. Solve 20 puzzles by zigzagging through your timeline!
To show the flow of time, its fur is white for forward and black for backward. (Real martens are brown. That's what makes this one so rare!)

In 4-4 I played as a black ten on the left, there is a box placed on a ball in the middle, located in the blue grid; On the right is another box. then I moved left and a box has disappeared.
Great mechanics!
This is tricky! Great concept!
very cool!
At first I thought it was just another sokoban with pull, but level 5 onwards really impressed me. Great game and wonderfully designed!
The idea of putting reverse ice-maze physics on objects was inspired by Antiban, created by the legend himself – Hempuli. Other mechanics such as antipull [I'm currently in level 10] were uniquely pulled off, involving paradox prevention of moving away from pufferfish without ever having pulled them in the first place (from a global temporal perspective, a.k.a. forward time).
Nice game
