For a first jam game, this is simple and well executed! It took me a while to remember which key went with which shape, but I guess that's kind of the point. Having 3 up at any time threw me off, initially, as well, but I got the hang of it and it was fun! Good job, and welcome to the jam. Hope you had a good time. :)

Hey this was fun! I second what John said, entering only the combinations for left-most item made me play it without ease. It's pretty hard to remember which key corresponds to which shape. I had to use a mnemotic to remember: shape colors are in "red green blue" order, which is same as RGB. :D

Another complaint is that sometimes if two patterns start with same shape, the game doesn't allow me to choose which pattern to enter, so I end up making an unintentional mistake.

Otherwise, pretty polished for a first jam game! Well done!

The music has a great C64 feel to it, and the presentation is nice and clean. I'm not sure I entirely understood the gameplay though; I couldn't figure out how I was supposed to interact with all three of the blocks, so I just stuck with entering the combos for the leftmost one, which seemed to work well enough.

Developer

Thanks for playing!
Interacting with all three blocks should be as simple as just pressing the first symbol for that block :)

I found the concept hard to grasp even after reading the instruction multiple time I still don't  get how to start a chain, also performance aren't good you might want to look into fixing that

I still haven't rated the game as I want to understand it and play it well before doing so

Developer

Hey!
What about it was unclear? Destroy the objects by pressing the right combination for each object.
What was the performance issues?
Thanks for checking it out! :)

Developer

What do you mean with bacteria? *confused*
