Orbox C | A Mobile Game in a PC World
Orbox C is a puzzle game for PC that would be super suited to mobile gaming. I put aside about 5-10 minutes to play this game for this video, and ended up spending over 1.5 hours playing it. Addictive fun.
The game on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/544180/
Free to try version:

Orbox moves straight in 4 directions. UP/Down/Left/Right. Player can't change direction of the Orbox when it starts to move. So it moves until stops at any block.
Most of the levels have multiple solutions.
There can be up to 5 missions in a single level. Missions can be set in different combinations.
Find a way to the exit
Blow all bombs
Collect all stars
Activate sensors
Break the ice
Game has a dozen of different elements. Simple blocks, Bombs, Teleports, Sensors, Ice, Stars, Gate blocks, Grow blocks, Labyrinth blocks, Triangles, Exit and Orbox. This was enough to build 210 levels which puzzles are not the same. 3 new elements planned for updates.
The Hard levels pack is literally hard. A hard level might take lot of of restarts and immersed thinking.
The Speed pack has a special concept around bombs. Player should move fast because when a bomb explodes he might lose the only possible way to complete a level. A twist from a deep thought to a fast reaction.
Score system counts the sum of circles in the tail after the Orbox. It is a bit intricate. The full circle gives player 20 points. And the empty circle gives 10 points. Circles become empty after the Orbox rides over the same path again. This makes it challenging to find best path for the best score. Another layer of solving the puzzle.
To set step records player should beat the level with smallest ammount of steps possible. The step counts when player pressed a button to make the Orbox move or make some action(like sensor activation).
To set a time record player should run as fast as possible on the shortest path.
The special effects like explosions made with random particles. This makes them look slightly different each time.
