  • I’m a sucker for match-3 games with unlockable content. The matching could use some polish, and it really needs powerups for matching 4 or 5 and combos, but this is a really solid foundation, and I could easily see it being developed further into a full game. Great work!
  • While the presentation is absolutely fantastic, the controls are quite unclear. There should be some kind of indicator to show what item you've selected. I also kept running into a bug where a round simply ended early and I lost.

Controls are very finicky, doesn't like matching near the edge of the board. Can't buy trinkets or select any other levels aside from the shop once unlocked.

It's kinda cute though I guess.
