Nice work! Fun puzzle game with some tricky levels. I would have enjoyed being able to place & remove pipes anywhere in the grid so I could edit my designs without having to undo the whole lot every time. Otherwise a very polished entry. Well done! Great job on the submission.

Great puzzle game that was effortless to get into and enjoy, and one of my faves here so far! Nice difficulty curve. Level 11 had me scratching my head for quite some time. In some of the more tricky levels it would have been nice to be able to put down pipes in an independent fashion, but on the other hand not being able to do so increased the load on the brain a bit and perhaps also the reward. Well done!

I'm probably missing some placement/rotation rule (other than the current part you're placing) or something, or maybe I'm just bad at puzzles,  but I got hopelessly stuck  on level 5, and just had to quit after trying for at least 15 minutes. Good job nevertheless, though. :)

Also I noticed someone submitted a project with the EXACT same pun within a few minutes of you! lol

Beautiful and fun game with some tricky puzzles. 11/14 took me the longest, that might have been a strong last level, all the following were easier in comparison. What bugged me a bit, was that you have to put down all pipes in order and can't switch out a pipe in the middle. For me it ended up in placing some tiles, then button-mashing undo, placing again, undoing again, ...

But that is just nit picking, I really enjoyed playing it and would continue playing it, if you add more levels.

Edit: And I liked the the grate pun ;-)
