When I first saw this game, the art style reminded me of the card game Machi Koro - a game which I absolutely love the art style of. This game has simple yet very in depth mechanics. The fact that you made this in 48 hours is a marvel. Amazing work.

As we promised during your stream, here we are to check your game out! 🙌

I think what all other comments have mentioned so far checks out, and almost doesn't need to be stated again, but we'll do it anyways! This is an excellent masterpiece in design and makes the player think in a puzzle-game without overdoing it cumbersome mechanics. The player is taught everything they need to use right at the start, and then its up to them to figure out the rest as they go through the levels. 

In fact, as we were playing this, I was discussing with my artist about how this is an excellent game that could even be used to teach programming, especially the visual kind. The logic and combination of results, and the way you connect different letter factories together through small nodes is very reminiscent to the visual programming engines such as Unity and Unreal use.

Otherwise, there's nothing much else to state. The aesthetics are pleasing, the make-your-own-word adds a fantastic layer of replayability (as screenshotted above) and it's a genuine good time. I saw the rest of your games and saw that you've made games for mobile before, and I definitely think this would be a fun mobile game to have on the go.

And that's sums it up! I hope to genuinely see you guys on the top-20 video, because even the number of ratings proves this game more than deserves it already. Cheers! 🐳

This is my favorite game this jam, I spent like an hour and a half playing it. Some combinations of letters that I felt should work didn't always work, which got a little frustrating sometimes. But, I was eventually able to figure out how to make every single letter in the alphabet. 

T was the bane of my existence. I was able to make it with an L where the short line of the L was on the top left combined with a sideways I. However, when I tried it with the short line of the L in the top right corner and a sideways I, it didn't work. So, I initially gave up on the correct solution entirely since it was the same thing in reverse. 

S was also tricky to figure out. Combining U's to makes sense. But I was trying to do it with C's in the same exact shape to no avail. I feel like either should work since they essentially make the same shape.

Also, since there's a horizontal reflector factory, there should 100% be a vertical reflector factory. Would make certain letters like A easier to make. Also, there should be bonuses for finishing the word in a faster amount of time. Another bonus for doing it with the smallest number of factories. Then, the highest score possible, etc.

I also really liked the build-a-word feature, that provided a bunch of replayability (half of my game time was spent on that). Honestly, I'll be incredibly surprised if this doesn't end up as a finalist in Mark's video. The minimal art style gave me mini metro vibes. Overall, fun game, you guys should be proud!
