Really clever puzzle game!
I really liked when the game allowed me to add single arrows to pieces, it really felt the game was opening for more emergent solutions.
Art syle and general aesthetic is very pleasant too.
Thumbs up!

This is really well done! Graphics and UI are sleek, and the puzzle game itself is a great idea!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you liked it!

Nice! I think first few levels could be a bit easier to make sure that the player is not overwhellmed. Additionally I did not get that I can scale up and down the block because arrows pointed only into one direction. Great simple visuals, and satysifing level win animation! amazing entry overall ;)

Developer

Thanks so much for the suggestion!

So polished. Feeling really good to play and the mechanics are good ♥

Great SFX but I think the music is a bit too fast for a puzzle game :3

Developer

Thank you so much for trying it!

Great puzzle! the style is very slick and the sounds are very satisfying. Also  the music reminded me of Gravity Falls hahaha  and the little sound and animation when you win are so good! My only note is that I wish it had a menu or title screen. Either way, good job!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

Great game ! Several ways of solving a level makes us think to choose the most optimal one ! Keep up the good work :)

Puzzles with multiple solutions are the best.  Love the minimalist aesthetics too 

Developer

Thank you!

I like the idea of having several ways of solving a level, which makes the game neither too easy nor too hard.

Developer

Thanks! Yes, you can solve the puzzles with creative ways!

Developer

Thanks!

The aesthetics and sound design of the game are great! The mechanic is really fun too, I also like the dragging to fill mechanic. It’s satisfying enough to be in one of those satisfying videos compilations :D

Well done for your first game jam entry!

Developer

Thank you so much for trying it!

Really nice work taking what initially seems like a simple mechanic and turning it into a puzzle game with some good depth to it! I like that there was freedom with solutions, and also how clean and unobtrusive the presentation is. The act of dragging the tiles is quietly satisfying too.

Developer

Thank you very much!

Just one word : Smart :)

Thank you!

Wow, really polished and fun puzzle game. I only managed to solve one of the difficult levels. Very tough.

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Great puzzle game. The difficulty ramped up quickly but I didn't mind that. The effects and the visuals helped sell the mechanics of the game. 

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

I like the simple design. It was a bit hard to keep track of how all the pieces needed to fit together, but each level felt intentional. I also liked the win animation.

Developer

Thank you very much!

I like the concept for this game a lot, and the presentation is really pleasant - nice colors, nice shapes. The puzzles get too complicated for me pretty quickly, but also - I'm pretty braindead after the jam. :P

Being able to undo each move instead of totally resetting would be great, by the way (very understandable to not have that for a jam)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing it! Undo feature is too difficult for me to add it into jam version haha

I'm familiar with tetris-like puzzle games (best way I could describe the shape fitting mechanic), but I love how this game manages to take a basic puzzle concept and make it more interesting! There are a variety of ways you can approach each level, which is something I greatly appreciate in puzzle games. One thing I would suggest is maybe adding some indication of how many levels there are or some sign of general progression.

Also, I can't help but think how fun this would be in a 3D cube layout. Maybe this could be implemented in an extra challenge mode in the future ;)

Great work overall! (P.S. the sound effects are very satisfying to listen to)

Developer

Thanks for the suggestions! Yes I am making every level has multiple solutions, you can complete the levels in creative ways!

Really awesome puzzles and strategies! I could see myself spending a whole day just playing puzzles like this and really loved the depth. The colors and visuals were very nice and satisfying too!

I wasn´t expecting this to be a really good puzzler. But it was. A bit confusing bt intuitive. Well done!

Developer (1 edit)

Thank you very much! I agreed that the guide is not clear enough haha

This is an awesome, well polished, well thought out puzzle game. The only infuriating part was when I finally beat the last tutorial (?) level after countless retries and it asked me if I want to continue with the actually challenging levels. I really enjoyed the baby difficulty and the fact that I had plenty of jokers and addons and multiple ways to win. I don't say I didn't beat a more levels after that but I definitely couldn't avoid the realization that I'm still not the best in these kind of puzzle games even though I really enjoy them.

Well done!

Developer

You are right. I wish I can remove those extra levels. Thanks for trying it!
