Oh no!  The pressure to complete the game in 15 minutes so I can rate it before the deadline!

Neat concept.  Is this what it's like for people who are bad at math?  (…also kind of reminds me of some descriptions of dyslexia I've heard…)

Loved it! The equations and number changing animations were fantastic. Best edutainment game of the jam!

I've never seen a game or any piece of art express so well the feeling of having an idea on the tip of your tongue. It's almost dreamlike when the math problem starts changing. Super interesting. This is going to be one of the most memorable games of the jam for me.

Very interesting take on the theme and well executed. Math is hard!

This is a nice game! The art style is nice and I liked the animations around the numbers changing. Things felt frustrating, but in a fairly light hearted way that worked well towards the out-of-control theme.

Nice little game. I like how well you have captured the feeling of having to perform in front of the whole class. The way the numbers change is also nice. Well done :)

Really anxiety inducing! It was a bit frustrating when the numbers I was holding or working with suddenly changed but I guess that's part of the experience! Good job

Thank you for submitting your game to the stream! =)
Legal proposal, served the jam theme quite well. I just bother a little with the game's RANDOM factor. But for a jam game, that's no problem. Congratulations, it has the potential to become a well finished product!

The perfect balance of fun and frustration!

Very cute drawing! The concept is quite interesting and it feels enjoyably frustrating how the numbers keep changing (the fact that the color tells us how long until they change is a nice touch). The sound effects were also quite good. Great job!

An interesting concept. The changing numbers add a lot of challenge and chaos to game. It has a very nice and fitting art style.

A simple, fun & chaotic game - had lots of fun with this one on stream. It takes a while to ramp up, but it feels very natural in doing so - and then you look everywhere and all these goddamn numbers keep changing on you! Bahahahah great work
