A nice concept i must say, but you've made some rookie mistakes :)

Firstly, try fixing the error that makes multiple instances of the same music play at once when you pass a level, as it is an easy fix.
Secondly - the diagonal movement is faster due to horizontal and vertical velocities adding up, I think you may want to change that.

Now, the design flaws:
The interactions make little sense. You throw a rock to break a rock wall, when it would make much more sense to wash it away with water. You fill a puddle of water to open the doors.
I don't like that the puzzle isn't contained in interesting interaction between elements, but in being lost in a maze looking for next interactable. This isn't even a puzzle, it's an artificial stretch.
The maze itself is empty, not really worth exploring.
The puzzle's structure is a fundamental flaw which may be impossible to fix without completely redesigning the game. The powers on their own can be a nice way of interaction, but the objects of interaction themselves bring no joy nor a puzzle to solve.
