Super fun idea, and very well executed. Simple and to the point. The last level definitely had me thinking for a few minutes, and I would have kept playing if there were more levels for sure. :D

I don't really have any feedback, you did the concept justice. :) Doing more with the plot could have added a juicy layer ontop of the neat gameplay, but that's easier said than done in a game jam haha.

Well done overall, keep it up :)

So solid and interesting but no so challenging puzzles. Good work, I enjoyed it a lot :)

Super original, creative idea. The one thing I would change would be perhaps a tips or solutions tabs for those of us who are less intellectual (like me)

This was a really neat puzzle game! I like how the controls felt intuitive, since they're based off of actual Windows hotkeys. I think the end solution for each level should've been shown on the same screen as the puzzle itself instead of being on a separate menu, though. E.g. show the solution as a smaller graphic at the bottom of the window, or whatever would work better. It was really fun to figure out the puzzles, though!

Fun little desktop type simulator game! I like the concept of running "out of ctrls" for the theme. You got gameplay, visuals and music in your game, well done! Overall a great submission!

If you want, please check out my submission.

A better twist ending then most movies. This game was a ton of fun!

I love the concept. I just wish there were more and trickier puzzles.

You managed to gamify such everyday actions as cutting and pasting really well, and adding common hotkey functions as upgrades was smart! I would have continued playing had there been more levels.
