Congratulations for your submission :)

Oh my god, i was looking for math related games. I love the small details such as "Saved by rounding". Also props to you for using raylib :). Great game all around, and i hope you get featured in the video.

Math nerds unite! I loved this game, got three stars on all levels. The puzzles were all a good difficulty (although the last one was a bit too easy) and were fun. I would love to see levels with complex numbers.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks! I will come back to it after the jam and add more Levels to it as well as fine tune the existing ones. Feel free to follow to be notified of updates.

Will have to think about what do to with complex numbers. It was more included as a joke, but we will see.

Cool game, my brain is too tired for it lmao. Only note is that it could use a little bit more "juice."

DeveloperSubmitted

Fair criticism.  It definitely only is a proof of concept of sorts. I have some ideas what I could do as proper graphics, though.

I lack the certain braincells to play a maths game, but the idea of combining maths with tower defense puzzle is chef's kiss. Well thought game made during 48 hours jam. Honestly tip off the hat to you to even make a math game in the first place. Good job! :)

Thanks for the kind words

Fun game, but it lacks a certain complexity *badum-tss*

Seriously though, this was a neat little puzzler. and even though the framing didn't matter at all mechanically, I think it's a neat gamification approach. I also wonder if this could be turned into some sort of zach-like, which might also be interesting.

Also props for writing the whole thing in C!

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thanks ;)

C is easier to work with, than you might expect. Give it a try. Raylib is a great tool to get started.

I'm pretty sure I could handle pointers by now, but I'm not sure I really want to mess with manual memory management yet. But yeah, maybe I'll give it a try :)

A good maths based game? Whats going on?

:D

Nice! I always thought mathematical games are a goldmine that haven't been discovered yet.

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Yes totally. We need more games for us math nerds!

Submitted(+1)

Ah, I'm so happy : ). I want to play a lot more games so I'm going to stop without finishing for now but I will be back! The mental gymnastics of trying to work out which towers to use was such a joy! This is so scalable and could actually be a great learning tool with enough design. Fantastic job!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks, glad you liked it :)

A fun Idea, I'm not into maths enough to get the gold medal everywhere but I know quite a few people who would absolutely love this game. I wasn't expecting to find a game like this but I'm happy I did :D I spent more time on this than I thought I would, well done! Especially in 48h

Your reply is everything I hoped for. :D 

I knew this was not a game for everyone. But hearing that someone had fun, even though he is probably not the ideal target audience is very motivating. Thanks a lot for playing and commenting!
