Pretty good short game to check out. Really solid mix of luck and decision-making.

I'm secretly wishing there was more in-game time to make 3 BIG gems so that I can combine them into a single HUGE gem... Even if I know HUGE gems most likely don't exist XD.

Hey I've recorded one of my performances here - did I do good?

You can't seem to be able to push gems over another once is big, the idea of this working like a rogue-like is nice, but it doesn't seem to be working properly, since pushing forward while the stone can't move, makes multiple turns go away.

Its a great concept, but currently is not fun to play since you can't push that much xD

A neat concept!

Cute. I like the idea and love the music arrangement.

Gem combining seems bugged. Usually, nothing happens, but sometimes a random gem on the screen will combine instead of the one I'm pushing.

Thanks for trying my game and for the feedback! The gems should combine to a larger gem when 3 of identical gems are adjacent to each other. Sometimes the gems spawn close enough for them to combine so it might feel random. I wanted players to have fun "discovering" the mechanics, but I guess I might have hidden it too well :)

Oh, I see. I think it'd be a bit easier to discover combining if it were possible to push multiple gems at a time. So like, that long line of gems that spawns at the start looks like you're supposed to push it from the back.

I like the arcadey style of this, it was short and simple, and the sound choice + original art ties it together. It is admittedly a bit sluggish feeling though, maybe having larger tiles and single-press movement would have helped?

I kinda wish Reimu moved faster, but at the same time this speed is good for making sure i don't mess up too often

The game's a bit simple and frankly very clunky. But it did use the theme rather well and can be quite hard. Overall it's a bit too simple for me but alright.

Thanks for trying the game! I'm always trying to improve my skills, so I appreciate the feedback. What did you find clunky about the game?

i don't really get how combining stuff works but it's cool

Thanks for playing! The gems combine when 3 of them are beside each other!
