Had a great time playing this! The art style is so fun, and the screen shake when you try to redeem invalid coupons is such a fun bit you incorporated. The keybinds feel pretty natural, and the audio set a nice ambience. The concept of patches is really unique and adds a great dimension to the game, and the "move up one" and "move down one" patches are a really creative idea.
thanks for playing the game! good to hear that the patches is really blend into the game
This game reminded me of how I'd move the pieces in chess in my head all the time when I was a kid. It makes sense in a way internally to me that tetris makes sense. I think that this is a great puzzle game and could be easily expanded with different pieces or movesets into a fun puzzle game or thoughtful exercise in chess practice.
thanks a lot for playing the game! totally relatable in moving chess pieces inside the mind before making the move!
Super charming visual style, and I really adore all the little UI touches. I think that sort of thing is integral to a game like this and you nailed it!
thanks a lot for playing the game!
A really awesome game, I really enjoy the chess inspiration of the puzzles! I was a little lost where the goal tile was at first though, but that is mostly due to color blindness lol. Wonderful creation overall! :D
thanks for playing! you’re right, i could’ve put more attention to the accessibility setting, hopefully for future builds!
A very solid entry, I'm glad to play this game after seeing it on Bluesky ;)
The concept is really innovative. It's quite original to have a story within a more cerebral game like this one, good job on this as well :)
thanks a lot! i saw you on Bluesky as well, happy to connect!
