While rating the games for the jam, I set a timer with 10mins so I don't spend much time on each. This game made me forgot about the timer. Very adictive. Love it.

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you forgot about the timer! ;D

I enjoyed it quite a bit. The music really sets a cool mood. I could see myself coming back to play this one.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Excellent game! I really enjoyed the cacophony of moving pieces around really fast so it played a lot of notes! I didn’t manage to get a 5x5, but it felt really cool when I managed some 4x4s. Well done!!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! 

I'm happy you liked it!

Pretty fun! I would love to play it on the original hardware! I think it would be great if you made a rom for the game boy!

Got 330 points!

I wish I had this one when I was a kid

Your comment just made my day. Thanks!

any plans for a full release? looks very polished already

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing!

If i get the feedback that I'm looking for, why not?! But there are still a lot of work to do. It's far from ready.

Submitted

Perfect game. I like to challenge me to get the biggest square possible. I managed to get some 4x4 only though. Did I hear correctly, that the sound fx matches the chord of the bg music?

Developer

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it!

If you practice more, you can make 5x5 squares easily! :P

And yeah you heard right about the music! ;D

I like it! I sat through a whole  play through that felt a little excessive. I think a smaller board would have made me contemplate my moves a little harder, the space requirement wasn't really an issue through the whole game, it felt more like racing the clock, which is good! I think constraining the space would have been a welcoming addition of stress, if you know what I mean ;)

Puzzle games are hard to nail down because they are super simple, but a bad puzzle simply won't do. I don't think this was one of those bad puzzles. Good job :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! and your feedback!

I wasn't actually trying to make it stressful. I wanted the players to pace their play through based on the music they play while moving, But after hearing everyone's comments i know that, if this is going to be a full release it's gotta contain different modes for different tastes!

Submitted(+1)

yeah, I guess that's something I struggled with too in this jam. Difficulty is hard because of how subjective it is lol. If only there existed a way to create a game that works for all skill levels 🤔

Submitted

Wow, what a beautiful game! The soundtrack + sound effects are lovely, and the palette is sublime. Great work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! 

It's great it hear that!
