This was so cool! Some of the puzzles were very satisfying to figure out. The ominous feeling of the messages as you progressed through the levels are the nice touch too! One of my faves this jam!
it´s quite an entertaining and fun game
I think this game is my one of my favorites so far! I like the fact that the puzzle resets when you go to the wire board. The visuals are really great too
Thank you! I really enjoyed developing it too!
Nice idea for a game. Trippy playing as a character playing a arcade game 🕹️
Loved the sound effects and the visual art style. Really felt like a unique world you stepping into.
My only feedback would be a bit more explanation about the rewiring or a guide the first time you do it. Might just be me but I was very confused at first one what to do. Once I got past that I had a blast 😃
There is a very short tutorial when pressing space on the main screen, but the text saying it it’s almost illegible 😭
Really cool game, art is fun and also a great use of limitation!
Extremely cool game! The first time you see the perspective shift is really sick. No real criticism, well done!
The atmosphere, visuals, puzzles, and sounds—all top-notch. And the way you handled the theme is really impressive. A fantastic experience!
Very cool puzzle game! Great use of the limitation, great graphics, very nice level design, interesting story.
The transition from level to wires could be a little smoother.
Thank you for your review! The transition junky-ness is a secondary effect that came with the pixelated effect, I’ll look more into it when the jam voting ends
Really good puzzle game, great implementation of limitations, nice visuals!
Really cool game, the puzzles are clever and you did a great job of escalating the difficulty at a good pace. My one suggestion would be to add a way to tell the order of the wires as it's not clear visually that it matters.
Loved how you used the limitation, and overall a really cool game and concept. It took me way too long to understand the purpose of the letters underneath the machine (my fault) but once I did the experience was way smoother. Pretty awesome tho!
Thank you! Ill try to increase the readability (and add more levels) in a future (post jam) update!
Amazing use of the limitation o: great job. The levels were fun and thoughtful.
Genuinely a really cool game and concept. I really like the graphics, only suggestion is for the animation for switching view to be faster.
After playing a bit, I realised it can be a bit tedious and makes you somewhat dizzy after a few switchs, so Ill update it after the jam ends. Thank you for your review!
