Ranked from 42 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Did you work in a team?
This was a solo project.

Was the resolution a challenge?
The resolution was not a problem. The game I wanted to make needed just a grid that was 4x4 so 64x64 was a lot of pixels to work with.

What did you learn?
I learned a lot. This is the first game I've ever made, so basically everything was a new learning experience. I've never worked in typescript at all before and all the phaser stuff was new. I am grateful for my brother, who helped me with a lot of code errors, and the phaser tutorials in helping me accomplish this goal.

I liked the game. You have time to put some music on it. If you lock the block at the top you can change its color, something that breaks the puzzle a lot or I would say completely. Is it your first game ?! Nice job!

Thanks! I actually intend it to change the color at the top, only because the game becomes rather impossible without it, unless I added in some code to only give blocks that would for allow winning. I could potentially remove that and change to only allow blocks that allow for winning, but I am not sure if I can figure out that code. 

It is my first game, but my brother did help me with issues that came up or things I couldn't figure out. Without that I am confident I wouldn't have been able to complete this. I will look into adding some music, I can certainly add that in the time remaining.
