The artwork is cool and very vibrant! It took me a few games to understand how I could finish level 1, but eventually I got it. Overall good job!

I loved this submission! Very nice way to interpret the theme and the game looks so cute. The puzzles were also challenging but not too frustratingly difficult. The only small suggestion I have is that I wish you had more time to think in between each piece instead of it falling automatically.

Although I did find it charming with the pufferfish scaling concept. I found myself loosing allot on not understanding why. Perhaps more clarity to the player after they fail 2 or 3 times would be great. I did not know how to win.

Tough game, but it's well-made. You really gotta use your brains to solve the puzzles from level 6 and on.

I like how each level pushes you to think differently. Level 9 killed me.

I love the creativity behind this game and how well you've incorporate the theme "built to scale". Scaling the pufferfish by inflating and deflating and using that to solve the levels is really creative. Also really like the art and the music. This game is literally so comfy and cute. 

I'm not too sure how to get beyond the first level though. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but whenever I connect 4 pufferfish together, they pop and the level ends. Is it something to do with the spikes on the pufferfish?

Thanks for trying the game out! The win condition is clearing the board. So the puzzle is to figure out how to pop all the pufferfish (including the ones in the queue)
