"The Area Where You Can't Place Arrows" is about an area where you can't place arrows. Suprised? Okay, for real, the point of this game is to get a power core out of the play area by pushing it with arrows. However, the arrows cannot be placed in the majority of the play area. There are multiple solutions to the puzzles, so be creative!

Instructions

  • Place arrow = Left click
  • Remove arrow = Right click
  • Turn arrow = A/D
  • Adjust tick index = W/D
  • Start/pause = SPACE
  • Start/reset = Q
  • Single step = E
  • Show touched tiles = T

Each arrow moves one tile at the time. The arrow with the lower index moves first.

An arrow can push other arrows, even multiple at once, but not if one of the pushed arrows arrow is pointing in the opposite direction.

What do you call a man with an arrow through his neck?
An ambulance, you heartless bastard.

Cool update!
