I really enjoyed playing this game. The controls remind me of those picture block sliding puzzles from my childhood, but dynamic in an interesting way. As the explorer moves around you can make some quick moves to open up new passageways.
Some of these levels are more puzzling than you'd think. Every now and then I'd end up at a dead end, with my move either being trapped by a lock block or the explorer. Sometimes that could be a little frustrating. But hey, when you play this game, they're in control - not you. If they want to stare at a wall for the rest of their life and not turn around, they're going to. It was satisfying to arrive at a solution. I think you nailed the "Out of Control" theme.
Final thoughts - I really liked the sound effects and level-shuffling effect when you reach the goal. Nicely done.
Nice game, but i think it would be cool if the arrows at the rows or columns you can't move, would show red or something just so you no that you can't move that row or columns. :)
