Move Counters that get more cursed
Move Counters that get more cursed
Welcome to a game that shows how you can really leverage this 'move counter' mechanic.
The first 35 levels and all of those mechanics were invented and implemented in 2 days, then C.S. Ouvey came up with more ideas and then I remembered I forgot some ideas so I had to spend the next day making 15 more, now I spent a 4th day fixing dumb bugs and mistakes, and now spent a 5th day making a better Level 48 and improving the ending.
Note: inspect element is cheating, yes I know 3 people have done that, eyeroll
wait now it's like 9 cheaters. I have searched an ugly face image for anticheat.

On a level where it matters, I muted the sound and the game concluded I cheated. Clearing my cache and replaying it happened again, so I am guessing you aren't supposed to do that, but it's weird because the sound volume can't matter on any other level (that is, there seems to be custom behaviour that makes it work on this level) I'm not sure how the cheat detection works, obviously, but it is pretty annoying. I would guess it was intended if the overlay went away after fulfilling the instructions, but it doesn't which makes the game pretty unplayable (or, at least, unfun).
In the time it took to type this and double check my assertions the overlay has now disappeared, so maybe it's not cheat detection? It also triggered (and was fixed by clearing cache) when I guessed the wrong answer on a puzzle regarding pixel colors (I thought maybe you needed to change the target number via editing the page), which I assumed meant web page edits weren't in the intended solution space, though, so I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to happen...
Edit: Probably should have read the instructions. I was trying to avoid spoilers, but it appears inspect element (and, I assume, page editing generally) is cheating. That still doesn't explain why it would trigger just from scrolling the sound down, though.
refreshing the page can also trigger the overlay without the text box, which may have something to do with whatever itch does that stopped me from getting to actually refresh the page when I pressed refresh (on firefox)
I love the pawn promotion sound effect for when you promote a pawn XD it was very funny
I have the exact same issue on both Firefox and Chrome. Pretty annoying, like you said.
Ironically I had to inspect element to delete the cheater overlay.
thank you for reporting i will fix it shortly
You need to find more N's somewhere. You have already seen them in fact, but have not managed to get them in
level 47????
speedran in 4:41 lol

COUNTER BESTTIME ACHIEVED
nice new levels icely
the sound should be the same as original
also why is level 48 even more spaghetti now
cba
explain to me how the total is only 1 ?
check description of the "Total" counter
how do you even get a blue 0 ?
How do I beat this level? I know the first move is to blow up the moves left counter, but what now?
:frog: i found another way to do thaat glitch lol
um
i did this on lvl. 12 btw and i use inspect element to do this
i need to use inspect element(not to cheat, there's just a level that's broken and there's no other way), so can someone tell me how
which is broken :frog: :frog: :suspiciousfrog:
the second level that uses the n couter
couter
why did you update it😭😭😭 I am stuck can u add another walkthrough or someone
I figured it out. The goal is to get the pink one to 6 and rotate it twice into a 9 and get the red one to 8 so you can rotate it once into an infinity. The way you do this is by moving the pink one under one of the returns and then using the red one to swap the target counter to a position where it will be counted by the pink counter. You also want to do the first rotation of the pink counter by swapping the turn counter with the red counter so that you both rotate it and increment the red counter in one move. Then just move the turn counter below both the red and then pink counters and you will have the solution,
Thx
Thx but i already found b4 u send
what that space on the right
I can gamble with these space

how
he prob swapped the move counter with the total coubnter
this game needs an undo button lowk but p fun puzzles

nice game
i made a metatext test
level code:
DC9J-DI32
haha very funny game
counter bizarre advance
i thought it was intentional
MOVECOUNTERSADVANCEDThis game was really fun to play even if I did need a few hints. My favorite level was level 49 where you can destroy the moves left counter after it reaches zero so you can continue moving objects in the level. Level 46 was also pretty fun to figure out.
i have got 100,000 on one counter with no cheats and in level 1
how did that happen
did you use autoclicker or you overpassed?
autoclicker while i ate
how to beat lvl 7
also fun fact: icelyverse has no god, only white top double squiggle (its canon name is tilde) chess buttle uhdvanced demons (i had to include a lingo refrence)
also how to change text color in comments (i want to change the color of this comment to salmone so people who played icely palace, iceland, and bucket of salmone would get the reference)
COUNTER
id do dat 2
I got a randomization on level 0 once kinda like this (I faked the image because I can't reproduce it, even if I hold R so it randomizes every frame without me being able to screenshot it)
Oh, so like this?
Can someone pls explain to me how the 'N-counter' works?
(i don't speak english that good to know what n's mean)
it counts literally the alphabet 'N' (on the game screen). and it counts both 'n' and 'N' (lowercase and uppercase).
thx
i cant beat level 5&6
help
Use the mouse.
I don't have a mouse or a keyboard
If you don't have a keyboard, how did you beat the first levels? Also, if you don't have a mouse, use the touch-screen.
meh idk how I forgor
use your finger (i guess)
suggestion: replace "counterclockwise" with "counter-clockwise" to line up with "counter clockwise" so it blends in better
And this is how Icely begun making rage games ;)
i did consider it during development but thought it didn't make enough of a difference anyway
also I watched someone look over that level like 4 times in a row without noticing it even with this current, probably more obvious version, and it improved the laughter lol
hi :)
Incredible troll logic game from start to end. Chess Battle Advanced.
How do you beat level 38? I know that the top right counter is a Moves Left Counter, and not a Moves Left Counter, but i don't know how to position all of the counters.
This is the easiest way I found to solve it. I remember a few other solutions, and it's probably my most played encounter because of all the combinations to solve it.
hint: chess battle advanced.
Thank you!
nn
Well, it was worth a shot. :/
lmao
I tried that too lolololololol
I'm stuck on level 26 "well that sounds impossible" and I actually have no idea what to do
sounds 😊
I figured it ou :)
