Unique game idea! It's like tile-matching but with a bit more brain power required. Are the numbers arranged randomly or is there an algorithm such that you can always create a least of few 10s? It was pretty hard for me to make a 10 out of more than 2 numbers haha

I was playing on my browser and I noticed that my mouse cursor didn't line up with the numbers that were being selected on the game screen - I was still able to play it though!

It's all randomly distributed, however, you will always be able to make some combinations, and the more you make, the more you open up the grid for more combos from further away. There are so many possibilities, such as 4,3,3 or 7,1,2 or 2,1,1,2,3 or even 1,2,3,4 to name a few. I've tested countless times so I guess my eyes are just so accustomed to seeing the combos that you can make right away.

So sorry to hear about the resolution scaling issues. I got a similar report from someone else that I asked to test, but I haven't been able to recreate the problem. I'll definitely work on fixing that. It's also why I included a windows version.

Thank you for playing!

interesting concept kinda like plague inc with a more puzzle mechanic, im pretty bad at puzzles so it was hard for me to make more than a two number combo but still good game! would benefit from more sounds and maybe a lil more visual flare(screen shake or light animations) :)

Nice puzzle game! add a relaxing background music and it will be great for sunday morning puzzles. I will suggest adding some more visual effects.

simple yet complex, really cool idea for a game ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )
could potentially be a pretty eye catching game if u slapped on some cool art

It was really fun! Had me thinking whether to leave certain numbers for other combinations and which 1 should I connect this 9 to, in order to have more options later, really neat!

This little puzzle is really cool. The fact that you can use already-filled squares to perform combos further away is a really great idea, and it works on its own! GG

If you could try and rate my game, I'd be grateful!

Fun! little puzzler really had me thinking & performing mental maths under pressure! nice job! would have loved some music though!

i found myself getting very frustrated & wishing i could draw L shape lines & had a little Eureka moment where i realised i COULD draw L shaped lines as long as the "cut out corner" of the square was a tile id already gotten & that made me start playing a lot better!

I thought i had beaten your highscore but apparently I had just broken the timer somehow and been accidentally playing on infinite mode aha
